    I got accepted into the MSN-FNP program. I found out over a month ago and I've already met with academic counselors and registered. I've had almost two years of bedside experience. Good luck to all...

    therein lies the dilemma. for them, i would just apply everywhere. it took my cousin over a year to find a job with only an AA. hey nat, you sound like a good candidate for this program. in our...

    regarding your friends who havent found jobs yet, when did they take their NCLEX? did they graduate with an AA or BSN? there are many factors to consider. most new-grad programs begin hiring around...

    The program is fun! Ive made lots of new friends! I still go out once in a while, although I don't hang out with my friends nearly as much as I did before the program. Kim pretty much summed up...

    I heard that csun is difficult to get into, especially if you aren't bilingual. Also, good luck getting in if you're a dude. :'( Obviously I'm biased because I'm at MSMC, but I was planning on...

    you get adequate exposure to most of the clinical rotations, although the most exposure was obtained in the first two quarters of the first semester, since you have clinicals 3x a week in one...

    in regards to the textbooks... im not just saying this to get you guys to buy my books, but the older versions of the books are more that acceptable. a lot of us thought that we needed to purchase...

    to my understanding, the tuition has covered everything so far, such as student health insurance and all associated fees [tuition does not include textbooks, so do yourself a favor and save money on...

    The programs really not that bad. Yes, you have to study every day, but there's more than enough time to still go out every once in a while. I took bioethics @ Taylor, so that really helped me free up...

    Btw- bioethics is being offered at Taylor university

    Hey guys, I'm currently in the absn program and I would strongly recommend taking bioethics. You will be able to leave at 12:15 on Tuesdays in your second semester, and you will also have additional...

    I took bioethics before I was accepted on the assumption that I would just make it into the program. Wishful thinking, I know. If you're diligent, you can do the online bioethics course in a month. [i...

    For those of you that were denied, definitely apply again. Kim ("sugarlips") is right- if you're denied or waitlisted, there's still a good chance that you can still get in the program at some point....
