  1. Endorsement Question

    I am currently trying to obtain PA state RN licensure by endorsement. I graduated from Drexel, but live in NJ so I decided to get my NJ license first. On one of the last pages of the application (under signature card on the checklist), the instructi...
  2. Interviewing for a different hospital

    Hey all, I'm a new grad and currently work in a non nursing position in a hospital (for 3 years). I love it there, and have been applying to positions there also, but have yet to hear from the recruiter. I recently got invited to another hospital for...
  3. NJ Board of Nursing - What the Heck?

    Okay, yet another question: i take my NCLEX RN tomorrow. My background check has already been completed and posted on my checklist as of 10/27, so that makes everything except for "NCLEX" and "board approval" checked off. How long should I wait to g...
  4. Sent my BON info to the wrong address!! Help please :(

    Thanks guys, the BON has 8 million different addresses. They have my materials...now they're just dragging their feet.
  5. I had paid my $200 for the application fee for NJ BON. I think right after the application reciept comes up, there is a checklist stating all the things you have to do/send yadda yadda - on the bottom of that list is an address to send all the materi...
  6. NJ Board of Nursing - What the Heck?

    Quick question: I'm looking on my application checklist and it says something about C&A In State and C&A Out of State. What does C&A mean??
  7. NJ Board of Nursing - What the Heck?

    Thanks so much for your reply! So either way, I'm screwed, huh? Do you think the endorsement would get moved along a bit faster since I'm done with school at a weird time? I also heard something from one of my classmates that if you're licensed in an...
  8. NJ Board of Nursing - What the Heck?

    I have a question about endorsement in NJ. I'm currently going to school in PA, but am immediately moving back home to Northern NJ. Some past graduates were giving the advice of sitting for the NCLEX-RN in PA, since you get your ATT fairly quickly an...

  10. Is Drexel ACE too fast paced?

    I'm in my second quarter now. What I can tell you is that the program is incredibly fast, but if you keep on top of your studies/get the help if you need it right away, it IS doable. There have been many people before us as well as after us that have...

  12. UPenn Second Degree BSN 2013

    I am applying to the Second degree nursing program at UPenn. I've decided not to go for the direct entry BSN/MSN program since I am not at ALL ready for the GRE (if they decide that I absolutely HAVE to take my GRE then I will), I'm sure I want to ge...
  13. Drexel ACE Spring 2014

    ajaek, I was accepted to the Fall 2013 ACE program. Basically financial aid will only cover about $12,500 for second degree students. Tuition alone for the program is $43,150 or somewhere in that ballpark. So the majority of us are taking out anywher...
  14. LaSalle Achieve Fall 2013

    Sooo I just got my acceptance letter! It's a pending acceptance though. Apparently I didn't get a sufficient score on the math part of the NLN. So to be fully accepted I'd have to pay for and retake the test over again, which is something I do NOT wa...
  15. Drexel Nursing ACE Program Fall 2013

    Hey, congrats on being accepted!! I'll try and answer: Where you live is completely up to you. Personally, I will be living off campus in south jersey with a roommate. The cost of living of where I'm staying is significantly less money than living on...
  16. Drexel Nursing ACE Program Fall 2013

    Congrats!
  17. LaSalle Achieve Fall 2013

    It's a new interviewing format this year. They're just doing an info session, which was like a group interview. We'll know of our acceptance/denial by Easter (atleast the ones who caught the March info sessions).
  18. LaSalle Achieve Fall 2013

    I emailed ******* to ask when we'd receive a decision letter. She told me two weeks after we attend the info session, so I'm assuming it's a rolling type thing.
  19. LaSalle Achieve Fall 2013

    It took two weeks after I took the NLN to receive the letter. Yes, there are a list of dates and times for the info sessions.
  20. LaSalle Achieve Fall 2013

    I've only received a "favorable consideration" letter. You should be getting an email soon about the required info session we have to attend in order to be considered for official admittance into the program.
  21. LaSalle Achieve Fall 2013

    So they're doing something new: having info sessions instead of individual interviews. I just registered for mine and I'm nervous already! Like, heart jumping out of my chest nervous. I received the favorable consideration letter, but idk if that me...
  22. Drexel Nursing ACE Program Fall 2013

    You need to get in touch with someone to straighten that out. Maybe Evan? You might've accidentally indicated that you have been in a nursing program prior to you submitting an application to Drexel (unless you actually were). But your best bet is t...
  23. Drexel Nursing ACE Program Fall 2013

    I don't know about exact info, but if you look back to the past posts on this thread the overall GPAs tend to span from high 2. (Example: 2.8 or 2.9s) and up, however, the GPAs in the last 60 or so credits tend to be from 3.5ish to 4.0. So I'm assumi...
  24. LaSalle Achieve Fall 2013

    Is anyone concerned about the NCLEX scores for LaSalle? That's something that I'm a bit worried about. Also...are they still conducting interviews for people that applied? I received a "favorable acceptance" from them, but haven't heard anything abo...
  25. How in debt were you after Nursing school?

    I haven't started nursing school yet, but I've been in college for awhile. Currently, I'm around 50K. Depending on what school I go to for nursing, I'll be somewhere around 80 - 100K. Not looking forward to any of that.
