Was curious if anyone has heard anything about when acceptance letters will be coming out for Spring 2013?

True but then I run into the situation where by looking at my background and the fact I am trying to get in a hospital that they think that I am just using the job as a stepping stone into something else. I don't know, it is just frustrating.

I have thought of nursing homes but to be honest with you the experience I had during my clinicals while I was getting my CNA almost pushed me away from health care because of how people who worked there acted. I don't know if I could do it. What about patient access rep? Would that be a good choice?

So I have been applying for positions at hospitals as a CNA for about 3 months now. I have a undergraduate degree and an MBA. I am currently trying to get into nursing school because I enjoy helping other more than I do making money off of their labor. I had used some resources I had to get names and contacts information of some of the HR people at the hospitals I have applied at. Upon talking to the HR department I was basically told that the hospital does not like to hire nursing students. Has anyone ever heard of this before? Is this common practice? If that is the case what options for employment are there for an individual going to nursing school that wishes to work in health care while going to school. I can't just work part time because I have a family to support. I guess I am lost for words.
