same as wpolorocker, i have a built-in roommate/bf as well! its a good and bad thing, lol. having a roommate in this program would be extremly helpful. & i agree, the rent websites online are less than helpful. i wonder if could run down there and find a rent magazine, or if i'll have to ride through towns and neighborhoods for a month to find a nice place. ... also, does anyone fully understand the np choices? over anything, i'd prefer to be a fnp, but marquette doesn't have that program, and i'm not moving out of state to get it. so, i'm assuming the anp program would be most similiar. from my understanding, the choices are: acute adult, adult, older adult, midwife, pediatrics? any clarification on this would be helpful. i'm talking with nps all this week to make sure i'm making a good choice. between finding a place to live, and making sure this is the right program, i sure wish i would have started sooner!
