Thank you guys so much for your responses. I really appreciate it. First of all, DABI, you have me a little scared. I never thought of the religious aspects of working at the St.Elizabeths. I am not catholic, nor will i ever be. Will I even be considered for a job there since i'm not catholic? Do you have any personal stories? I am just so lost and the more i research nursing schools and careers the less I want to do them. I have a good job now, but i've been here for 10 yrs and its time to move on. There is nowhere else i can work making this much money. (it's not a lot but more than i would make anywhere else w/out a degree) Lindsay

I am wanting to start nursing school (ADN) soon, but have so many questions. I would really appreciate some help. I live in Northern KY (Florence) and my biggest problem is choosing a school. All of them say they are the best, but which one really is? I also heard that in 2012 only BSN's will be hired. Is there any truth to that? Does anyone know about Beckfield or Cincinnati State? I know that Beckfield isn't NLN certified but they told me that the only down fall to that was I couldn't work for the VA. Is that a big deal. Also I am am and older student (29) and am worried about memorizing the info. PLEASE HELP! Thanks so much!

Thank you so much for your reply...this question was for a fellow nursing student (my co-worker). I'm trying to talk her out of doing the online thing, even though it is convenient. I think the reputation of a school is very important...and unlike this school, most don't need to "recruit" new students. Again, thanks so much.

Thank you so much for replying..i'm new to this site and didn't know if anyone would reply at all. My co-worker and I are both under the same user name so this question was for her. I am trying to talk her out of the "no name online college" she is thinking of attending. First of all, a good school isn't going to try to "recruit" you...they don't have to ...but this one is....i'll pass the info along. Again, thanks so much.

Am looking for any type of feedback about on-line BSN. I have an associates in nursing but looking to further my education. Are most of them scams or are they legitimate :)? Any suggestions on which one to choose would be greatly appreciated. Thank You so much. :redpinkhe
