  1. New Grad No Job- extremely depressed.

    I have a few suggestions. Have you signed up on all career sites under healthcare/nursing to have alerts for RN jobs to be sent to you automatically through e-mail? I did and just got an interview...
  2. I really appreciate all your comments because it like reading my story in parts of every one of them. I had a horrible experience as a new grad in a tele unit. I never felt accepted, I constantly...
  3. Azusa Pacific University or community college

    I would like to give some advice to those who are considering APU for the BSN program. I was accepted by the program and did go to the orientation. I quit before I began because I did not like the...
  4. Are there really RN Jobs in Southern California?

    This is encouraging news about new grads. Many of the discussions I read about are more discouraging. I wouldn't mind working in mental health if this would count for the experience you need for...

  7. CSU Fullerton Fall 2010 applicants?

    Hi Meems, What did you mean about not wanted to go to CSULB? I have been talking to them about the RN to the FNP program and have found them very helpful and encouraging so far. I do not know much...
  8. Most Economical way to get your Masters?

    I know there are programs for the RN all the way to the NP. It is good to get some experience working as an RN before applying to the Master's program. Usually you can bypass the BSN if you have a...
  9. It's nice to know that it is not just me that is feeling unsure about the direction to take in nursing. At this point, I will start with an ADN/RN, work for awhile and then continue on in my...
  10. bachelor's in another field to NP in 3 years

    Hi Merky, I am responding to your message regarding the ADN to the BSN with a BA in another field. How long did this take and where do you get your BSN? I am wondering if the requirements may start...
  11. It's so confusing about what degrees hospitals want out there. I hear RN and experience is what they really want, and now it seems some may be looking for the BSN. It takes a few years to get a BSN...
  12. bachelor's in another field to NP in 3 years

    You may want to look into the Cal State Long Beach program for EL-MSN that takes three years. It is pretty inexpensive as well but I am not sure of the exact costs. I believe it might be close to...

  14. New grads and Jobs

    I think hospitals should be required to hire some new grads also. This will help out with new nurses getting their first experience and the hospitals could probably pay a little less for them. After...

  17. Yes, it was not a good experience even the brief time I dealt with them during orientation. I was accepted at another school for the RN, but it was a two year program. I really wanted to get my BSN...
  18. Riverside Community College (RCC)

    Hi Wanna Be Nurse, You should e-mail the nursing department at RCC at [email protected]. Good luck and hope you did get
  19. I think this is very true many times. I believe that with nursing experience is very important, so the degree alone is not a guarantee of a high paying position. It is unique in that way, I think....
  20. Riverside Community College (RCC)

    I found out by e-mail. I was actually accepted in Spring 2010, but I deferred until Fall. I was also accepted at an accelerated BSN at Azusa Pacific. I just left that program because I did not like...
  21. Yes, I got into two schools on the first try. One was a private school with an accelerated BSN to the MSN and the other was a local community college. I did not, however, get accepted to UCI program...
  22. I was going to go the accelerated BSN route, but I read that many accelerated program students have trouble getting their first jobs with no experience. I think it is how the economy is right now....
