Thank you TheCommuter. I appreciate your response. I actually applied to positions in OKC, Tulsa and Wichita before I was licensed. I will try again now that I have a license.

Hi, I don't live in El Paso but I also considered moving there. The major health systems are the University hospital center (a level 1 trauma center), Sierra health and Del Sol Las Palmas. I always see lots of openings on their websites. I think Univ...

Hi all, Please I need some help in making this important decision to relocate. I am a single mom of two young kids;currently in an ADN program in MD,I graduate next year. I am thinking of relocating to a warmer state and some people suggested I try T...

I don't think Maryland require a SSN. Maryland is a compact state as is Texas. If Texas is where you want to work, you may want to check the licensing requirement for other compact states. Probably some of them won't require the SSN. Goodluck.

Not all schools require that you have the state's license. Some schools just ask for a license in the US. Your best bet is to go to the schools's website and see what their requirements are or email them. Good luck.

Congrats and hope you enjoy your new job. It's nice to read these positive and happy threads. All the best for the future:up:

Hi, Please I am looking for some information. I am currently in an ADN program in Maryland. I graduate December 2011. I have been thinking/considering moving to California when I graduate; I am thinking close to Sun Valley or Sun Valley because there...

Hi, Thanks for the replies.I have since changed my mind about California. I have decided that Texas would fit our needs better but even then I promise not to relocate without a job offer. I plan to visit Texas early next year just to check it out and...

Hey Caliotter, I know this is an old thread but I am hoping you will read it.Please I have a question. How many jobs were you working when you worked 108/120 hours and what were the schedules? Because of my current situation, I will need to work more...

Hi, I am not sure how far you are willing to travel but I saw some job listings where they said new graduates are welcome to apply (these are not new grad internships). Check, Holy Cross, UMMC, St. Agnes, Northwest and I think Franklin Square. Goodlu...

Hi, Firstly to be eligible for H1-B visa you need a BSN. Secondly if you go to the USCIS website and do a search for H1-B visas for nurses you will find an article that provides a lot of information. I read it some days ago but I don't have the link,...

My reasons: Job security and flexibility Good to great pay (depending on specialty)

Hi, I am not really a study group person and also my current situation(single mom,two young kids) makes it almost impossible. I really believe you can succeed in nursing school without joining a study group. I am doing okay so far....

Hi, I used the Rea clep study guide to study for both exams. I did not use any other material I got a 71 in sociology out of a possible 80 and 59 in Human growth and development. I think you need extra study materials for the human growth. I would re...

Hi, I just had to come here and vent because I am in danger of putting my foot wrong. It's just five weeks to the end of the semester and I don't want to jeopardise my progress. In my class, there is a student who is a LOUD MOUTH. She is forever aski...

Hi all, This thread is just for fun and I got the idea from my other thread. Basically, I would like to know the ages of the most disruptive and annoying people in your class. My definition of trad is 18-30, non-trad 30-40 and very non-trad 40 and ab...

Hey Mi Vida Loca, I couldn't edit the post. So lets jut say trad is 18-29 and non-trad is 30-40. I am non-trad myself and the most annoying/talkative people in my class are non-trad. But like you rightly pointed out it's all ages. But the ones that ...
