  6. University of Cincinnati FNP spring 2019

    I like it. It’s a lot of work. I’m in second semester and some of the classes feel like busy work & a waste of time but I think that’s how it is with any degree. They provide you with resources like lectures, articles, YouTube’s, videos, books to...

  9. Moving to Charlotte- any insight on pay, location, hospitals

    Thank you for the insight! $5-6 a hour difference is huge. I’m in the process of purchasing a home that is just 10mins south of concord mills. Just on the border of Harrisburg. It looks like there are a lot of surrounding hospitals to choose from. ...

    Congrats! There's not a Facebook group that I'm aware of but I can create one. That's a great idea! I'm anxious to hear from them for the next details but I feel like we won't hear more until it's closer to the start of the program.
  16. University of Cincinnati FNP spring 2019

    That's so awesome! Congrats! Tblagg11 did you also apply for FNP? I think the first year all NP's take a lot of the same core courses. I'm still waiting to hear from an advisor what the next step is. Anyone here from one since acceptance?
  17. University of Cincinnati FNP spring 2019

    Fingers crossed for you! It seemed fairly quick once paperwork was in. Everything I've read about it has been positive and I'm glad they have a spring start date! I'm just waiting for advisor to contact me with next steps now that I'm admitted

    That's awesome! Nursing cas took 2-3 weeks before it was complete with them. Then once I paid the second fee to the actual college it took exactly two weeks before I got the acceptance through email í ¾í´—

  23. CMC/UNCC CRNA 2018

  24. CMC/UNCC CRNA 2018

    I thought about VCU as well. I'm trying to stay in state because of cost of tuition but just have to see if I get in anywhere local. My GRE was 297 I hadn't planned on applying for the Jan 10th start date and last minute decided to try. I feel like ...
  25. CMC/UNCC CRNA 2018

    I wouldn't count yourself out! It looked like a automated type email. My science GPA is just below the 3.0 requirement which I didn't realize until after I applied, I didn't realize they included my general chemistry in that. I'm pretty sure that al...
