Interestingly enough, Canada has its own version of Obamacare in place! They'll be leaving one socialist country for another. LOL! As one person puts it:

...how long would the need for qualified nurses from overseas last, more specifically if the qualified nurse is an advanced practitioner (ie nurse practitioner)? I'm looking to hopefully relocate to Australia and make it my new home in a few years, ...

Thank you ceridwyn. Do you think there will remain a need for nurses in the next few years though? If so, in what specialties?

It's just beyond awesome that most of you who came to know each other through Allnurses.com will get to be classmates. I believe of the group left only ABSN and mellzie are waiting for a definite response? For those who have heard today, is it a def...

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The group is now up to 30 students...anyone know how many seats are available per cohort?

Precisely. It's not that nursing students do not want to hear the truth, in fact, many of them know the situation that they are entering. However, to expect nursing students to quit nursing school or make alternative career plans after many have inve...

Wow. So for those earning an incoming its either private loans, savings or a combination of both? Why, Duke, why? :(

Ahh, I forgot about that post requirement to reply to PMs. Thanks for following up!

That's insane. The pay is considerably better in the RTP area and/or larger hospitals (Duke, UNC, WakeForest).

Ahh, I didn't know. Thanks for clarifying. :)

The group is now made visible and its up to 25, excluding M and another administrator.... Keep in mind though, just because these folks joined the FB group it in no way reflects they've accepted/deposited for a seat. When did they say second rounders...

So is it Duke over Yale, or?

Poodle, I currently work in the legal sector and trust me when I say that there is no guarantee of job offers for law students, even those attending top law schools. I know NYU and Columbia law school grads that are still looking for jobs. The legal ...

Moggs, I can only hope so, but that would heavily depend on who we have in office as President of the U.S. :) And LOL @ creeping on these boards.

+1. I think speaking to Duke alum on this board would provide you with another perspective on how beneficial a Duke education. They not only comment on how fascinating the program, but also heavily spoke on how the Duke name and its networking opport...

Hey moggsy, is applying next year Fall 2013 considered several years off? I know I stalk this thread like I am applying this year but it's because I love reading about your admission cycles. It gives me the encouragement to push on with my prereqs k...

AMAZING!!! Where can I sign up? How do they even choose the amount of scholarship money per MADIN scholar? What factors do they consider? GPA? Science majors? Underprivileged/poor circumstances? That's a sweet deal!

Hey kce!!!, Welcome back and congratulations on your other acceptances! I hear MUSC is a great school as well. Are you leaning one way over another? Is Duke still in the running? Thanks for your advice and perspective on the finances needed to atten...

Don't quote me on this but Duke has an excellent record for consistently placing their graduates well throughout the country. Not to mention the fact that Duke just opened their new cancer center and expanded their new Duke Medicine Pavilion, both of...

Hey carshell! I will preface this comment by saying I've never attended NC A&T nor do I know of anyone who attended, however, I've read and spoken to NC locals who said the school has a good reputation. I know the NCLEX passage rate is the lowest...

"God, I know you're trying to find your way back to Heaven but Earth is your new home now. Now come down so we can get you back on your meds..."

"There you are, Bob! Don't you know there ain't no mountain high enough, ain't no valley low enough and ain't no river wide enough to keep me from you..."

That depends on how many credits are transferable for a typical BSN program. If you haven't yet taken many of the core classes required in a BSN program (A&P I and II, Chemistry, Statistics, Nutrition) I suggest you take them while you're still a...

1. Nurse Anesthetists often deal with their patients when they're sedated in an operating room. There is seldom any chance to interact and enjoy the company of your patient; 2. Medical school is a challenge in and of itself and leaves little room to ...
