There is a new grad group on facebook. We've been supporting each other in many ways, especially with the BRN problems. Here's the link... https://www.facebook.com/groups/Newgradrncalifornia/

Hi again, I started a facebook group for the incoming cohorts (12 &13) where you can connect with some of us in the program. I'll also tell cohorts 10 & 11 about it so they can participate if they want to. Please keep in mind that the group is for those already accepted to the program, not for people trying to get in. Also, please stay professional when posting in this group. Online reputations are important, especially in this profession. The group's info is: email: [email protected] Link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/absnconnections/

Hi! Congrats to those who got in! I'm in cohort 11 and about half way through the program now. If you have questions, you can email me at [email protected]. I'll try to help you out where I can. For those of you starting this summer and are worried about financial aid/paying for school. As far as I know, you have to pay for summer up front and then try to get reimbursed from loans. There was a lot of confusion about that last year. This is a good program and I've already learned so much. That first semester can be pretty overwhelming and confusing sometimes, but I promise it gets easier. Reach out to those of us in cohorts 10 & 11. We are happy to help. Good luck! Nat

To those of you that were thinking of trying to switch to summer start... for what it's worth... summer start is much more intense than fall start. That first semester is the heaviest (at least it was for us). My advise would be to get some of the texts early and start reading over the summer. I did that and it was really helpful. (I'm in cohort 11) Good luck!

danceluver its a bsn. np programs are usually specialized masters programs. we are only considered graduated students because we have prior bachelor degrees.

Hi I'm in Cohort 11 too! I wasn't able to be at orientation because I was out of the country. I'm really looking forward to meeting everyone. I tried finding a group on facebook but no luck. Anyone have a link?
