  1. Simmons or Johns Hopkins?

    LewisNClark replied to akp73's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I will be commuting, so I would rather have a 12-14 hour single day than 2 6 or 7 hour days, you know? One of the big attractions of this program is the longer days and from the look I took at the...

  2. Simmons or Johns Hopkins?

    LewisNClark replied to akp73's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Greymama, are you working as an RN right now? How is the RN internship phase? Someone mentioned on another thread that NP preceptors are hard to find in their program--is this true for Simmons'...

  3. Simmons College Direct Entry 2010

    LewisNClark replied to careerchanger22's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Goberun83, I don't think I have enough posts to message yet. I'm just curious about a whole bunch of things--what is your schedule like? What are clinicals like? What's the RN internship like? Are...

  4. Direct Entry MSN's 2010

    LewisNClark replied to allie2010's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I think any of the programs discussed is a fine option. Some put more emphasis on the nurse training (like NE, Simmons, UMass Med--all of these programs require work as a nurse), while others see it...

  5. Simmons College Direct Entry 2010

    LewisNClark replied to careerchanger22's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Another request for feedback from someone currently in the Simmons program or an alum. Have a deposit out at another program, which I love, but just got my acceptance letter and I also really like...

  6. Direct Entry MSN's 2010

    LewisNClark replied to allie2010's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I might do that. Since they even have their waitlist notification out, I know I'm not on their list--and I've already accepted at UMass, which I love--but I would like to have confirmation that a...

  7. Direct Entry MSN's 2010

    LewisNClark replied to allie2010's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Oh my God. My suspicions confirmed! I told my long suffering spouse that if I don't hear from them by the end of April, I will be very tempted to call and demand my $50 back! This process is making...

  8. Direct Entry MSN's 2010

    LewisNClark replied to allie2010's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Does anyone else suspect that Northeastern didn't even read their application? I assume I'm being rejected, since I didn't get an interview and those accepted have apparently gotten their letters....

  9. what is the great debate about PA vs NP I've been contemplating

    LewisNClark replied to mom2twinsplus1's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Some scholars call these professions "separated at birth" and say that there is essentially no difference in the actual clinical duties. Nursing has a theoretical background and a history that is...

  10. Umass Worcester GEP!! Please reply!

    LewisNClark replied to katiequinn's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    LOL, my commute is so bad that another 15 minutes doesn't matter much. The perils of home ownership, I guess. You'll know me on early morning clinical days as the one whose hair looks like it...

  11. Umass Worcester GEP!! Please reply!

    LewisNClark replied to katiequinn's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    It wasn't condescending at all! I appreciate the info and detail a

  12. Umass Worcester GEP!! Please reply!

    LewisNClark replied to katiequinn's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    So, I got into the GEP for FNP and I'm really excited--I love the program and think the faculty is great. That said, I'm also terrified, because I have kids and the usual duties, not to mention a...
