    CSUDH Entry MEPN Program - Fall 2010 Applicants

    MiahMSN replied to MiahMSN's topic in California Nursing

    Also, Nzkom, I in no way want to imply that you will not get an interview, which I'm sure you will and since you have a week before your portfolio is due, put your all into it, proof, proof, have...

    MiahMSN replied to MiahMSN's topic in California Nursing

    Not sure, but i know the final workshop is this month. Yeah, it is a lot. It's the exact reason why UCLA's program doesn't conduct inteviews - it's strictly based on your application, essay, letters...

    Does this make me a bad future nurse?

    MiahMSN replied to MiahMSN's topic in General Nursing

    SMH - that is the craziest thing to me. I have a lot of family members who work in social services, and this seems to be the similar case with government/city/state employees - you have to damn near...

    MiahMSN replied to MiahMSN's topic in General Nursing

    Heard this as well, and believe there is some truth to it. That's just not who I am. I don't have time or energy to be a ***** just because I can! I may get some heat for this one, but oh...

    MiahMSN replied to MiahMSN's topic in General Nursing

    I totally understand where you are coming from. I think you are misinterpreting what I wrote (or maybe my interpretation was scrappy), either way - what I meant is that nursing, IMHO, and in order to...

    MiahMSN replied to MiahMSN's topic in General Nursing

    LOL....well, I figure that much in clinical rotations. And I'm ok with that, but as a speciality area for my career, not so much. Also given the fact that I'm set on NNP, I think I should be ok....

    MiahMSN replied to alethea smith's topic in General Nursing

    There are not many, well hardly any, schools in Cali that offer the sciences online, and if they do, they are hybrid courses (lecture online/lab oncampus). But many of the other courses you need...

    MiahMSN replied to MiahMSN's topic in General Nursing

    To say, "hello, I'm Mya a MSN-RN, pleased to meet you" sounds absurd. However, I do feel that ones academic preparation is important and speaks to the expectations that others, as well as yourself,...

    Yeah, Dominguez doesn't even sign for students to sit for NCLEX until they have met all requirements for the MSN portion, which is the end of the 2 year program. I asked why many other schools in Cali...
