  1. Can you go to a nursing school that's not from the university.

    CareQueen replied to Ryokufan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm confused. Are you asking if you can be a student at Harvard, but go to Penn State's nursing school and still get your nursing degree awarded from Harvard?..Well no, you can't do that. Wherever you...

  2. All pre-nursing students!!

    CareQueen replied to Shonqueen1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was accepted to Johns Hopkins on my first try as well. It's a 17 month ABSN program, but I submitted my app early decision and didn't have any of the pre-reqs completed at the time, just my...

  3. Any programs without pre-reqs? (other than Yale)

    CareQueen replied to Digthis1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow. I remember looking at Yale's entry-level Masters program and I thought there were pre-reqs...guess not. Well in any case, I'm not sure about programs that have no pre-reqs. But believe me, I...

  4. Waiting on acceptance/rejection letters

    CareQueen replied to tortia1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Keep the faith and stay upbeat and positive everyone!!! I applied Early Decision to my top choice ABSN program in November, and found out last month that I was accepted :-), but I've been where you...

  5. ABSN programs

    CareQueen replied to Lukela's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I assume when you reference an APN program, you are speaking of a direct-entry Masters? That's the only program I know of that will allow you to become an advanced practice nurse (along with direct...

  6. Help! Does my schedule look okay?

    CareQueen replied to hsm0487's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Definitely seems doable to

  7. Help about LOANS !!!

    CareQueen replied to j518279's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Now that I think about it further, you may not have to pay that loan back at all. The William D. Ford loans stipulations specifically say that you may be eligible for discharge/cancellation if your...

  8. A&P I Spring 2013

    CareQueen replied to meeep's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So, I had my first A&P I class last night and the prof is well....different! Haha. The prof is light-hearted, makes a lot of jokes and explains major concepts in really simple terms, which I can...

  9. Help about LOANS !!!

    CareQueen replied to j518279's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes you will. Since you didn't receive a degree previously, you should be eligible for all types of financial aid that the school provides as long as you enter a degree or certificate program...

  10. New Nurse can't eat lunch

    CareQueen replied to NightOwl0624's topic in General Nursing

    Note to self: Apply for jobs in California upon graduation! Lol

  11. What kind of a nurse can I be?

    CareQueen replied to guephna's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi Guephna, you should probably start a new thread for your question in order to gain

  12. Anybody else tired of taking pre-reqs?

    CareQueen replied to FaithGurl93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    They may seem like a waste of time, but I am certain that they are needed to help you become a well-rounded nurse. For instance, Sociology and Developmental Psych especially help to educate you about...

  13. I want to go to Nursing School

    CareQueen replied to chicks1225's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have recently done the same. You are luckier than I however in that you are figuring this out upon graduation as opposed to afterwards. I say that because I didn't seriously consider going back to...

  14. Why nursing?

    CareQueen replied to samantha18's topic in General Nursing

    Great question! I have to say that I am not one of those people who wanted to be a nurse all of my life. Throughout the intial part of life and pretty much until the age of 16, I wanted to be a...

  15. NYU Accelerated Program (+prereqs)

    CareQueen replied to whatsmyname's topic in New York Nursing

    NYU was second on my list to apply to the second-degree accelerated program as well. However, since I got into my first choice school, I won't need to apply anymore. In any case, the great thing about...

  16. A & P

    CareQueen replied to ph94's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Mine does too. My program starts in late August and my pre-reqs won't be completed until mid-August. (cutting it close, I know lol!) As a matter of fact, most of the schools that I researched will...

  17. Online STAT

    CareQueen replied to chwcbesteph's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Clearly I'm JUST as crazy. I'm taking online stats and A&P I (classroom based) this semester. I'm pretty bad at Math as well, but I took stats when I was getting my first Bachelors, and managed a...

  18. A&P I Spring 2013

    CareQueen replied to meeep's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Gotcha! Unfortunately, that happened to me last semester as well! In any case, best of luck to you and I'm sure you'll easily get into Rutgers! I hear that their program is

  19. What was your GPA, when you go into the Nursing program?

    CareQueen replied to Beautifulvirgo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just got into a second-degree ABSN program. My first Bachelors GPA was 3.30. My program doesn't start until Aug. so I don't have that # for you, but so far my GPA for pre-reps is a

  20. ABSN or MSN?

    CareQueen replied to BRUINS1990's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Had the same dilemma...ultimately chose the ABSN b/c it would allow for me to get the RN experience earlier, and I could enroll in a Masters or DNP prog while doing so, esp since I'm not definitive in...

  21. Johns Hopkins!! I've Been Accepted!!!

    CareQueen replied to CareQueen's topic in Maryland Nursing

    That's fantastic!!! Congratulations to you as well!! I don't live in Maryland, I live in Pennsylvania & as far as housing goes, I haven't made much headway in my search. I have some family in...

  22. Transfer as a pre-nursing student??

    CareQueen replied to Anonymous0001's topic in General Students

    I don't doubt that that's true, esp b/c I'm new to the entire nursing field and as you mentioned, you would know better than I would. However, I tend to think that people (recruiters included) are...

  23. Entry-Level CRNA's will need DNPs by the end of 2015??

    CareQueen replied to CareQueen's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Okay, thanks for

  24. A&P I Spring 2013

    CareQueen replied to meeep's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's great! Officially, I'm enrolled in the Pre-Nursing Option too, because it was the only way that I could qualify for direct loans from the govt to pay for the courses, since I already have a...

  25. Transfer as a pre-nursing student??

    CareQueen replied to Anonymous0001's topic in General Students

    Your mom is RIGHT!.. Emory is in the top 25 nursing schools in the country. They were on my list for applying to second-degree BSN programs as well. I hate to say it, esp because it isn't always true,...
