    Sorry for being ambiguous. Obamacare is good to know... and specific components of it. Not just the "general gist" but maybe pick a section you find interesting. It's what I was asked about, but it...

    Also, I got a loan through Sallie Mae because I got a better rate. The financial aid will work out, don't worry! A lot of us have had to do it already so don't

    Hey guys! Congrats on the interviews! So for those in CM, it's a one on one interview and they will ask pretty much your typical questions. Be up to date on political reform and healthcare. You do...

    I remember how nerve wracking it can be! Take it one day at a time and remember this feeling because once you do get in, you'll be amazed how fast a year flies by. The program is AWESOME. If you asked...

    driven2012, you are correct. The FNP interviews are conducted by two interviewers and the CM interview typically conducted by the head of CM herself. This might be the reason why it's going a little...

    From what it sounds like, most if not all people took out some sort of loan. I pulled out a loan solely for the cost of tuition for the first year. My living expenses and such are luckily supplied by...

    I'm in case management and interviewed for both FNP and CM. I am, indeed, in my first year. The academic schedule is pretty rigorous, especially in the first semester. In the first semester, you're...

    Hey Kandd99, Congratulations!! USF and SMU! I guess the biggest question is what do you want to do? Case management? CNL? Personally, I have interests outside of both, and since USF seems like a...

    Nat714, Think about it this way... if you go to the ABSN, you'll still need to find a job and get experience (very tough in this market!) then reapply for an FNP program - which would cost you more...

    Heh, my interview went even worse than I imagined I suppose. It's too bad she didnt get to see the real me. If I get in, you can bet I'll be spending the entire time changing that. I can't believe I...

    You can, but I assume we should be notified today. I think one lady does all the notifications. Is your last name at the end of the alphabet? Because mine is and I haven't been notified yet

    So let's break it down... and everything I say is me trying to be neutral in this situation. If you go the ABSN route, you'll be an RN in a year, right? Then you need experience (whether or not you go...

    I'm #3 on the waitlist but I was very sure my interview went horribly. if you think yours went well, you could very well be at the top of the list too. I just hope people decline admission... I want...
