I graduated in 2014, there were about 160 graduates with 50 are online-hybrid, but that was after fail and drop out each year

Is it a bit exaggerating? A PhD in any field would be impressive. I actually came across a job posting for Children hospital in LA, the requirement is BSN, MSN or ADN with a BS in another field. Some hospitals actually care about bachelor in other fields than nursing.

Yep, what the above said, in person exams, lab tests, second year you will have chance to test out skill in clinical setting though..,

Johns Hopkins

Starting January of this year, Inova will not hire anyone without a BSN in hand, unless internal hire with contact to get BSN within 3 years

I also do not think it's a good idea to give draft of recommendation letters for others to sign. Professional write their own letters, especially if ones are professors or PhD. I don't know about you, but I rather received a great letter written by esteemed PhD professor than provide them a draft that I pulled out somewhere. I got my first job because of such great letter. Always networking, keep contact of those who could give you stellar letters. Some people are just better writers than some, definitely keep those people in mind. Apply for jobs or grad schools, those open doors. Best of luck to everyone.

You can go to MeC campus to see advisor at student services, they will look at your stat and give you more info

Ouch!!!!

I know it's a little bit late now, but my fellow classmates who had job offer in DC, opted to get the RN license with DC. After they pass Nclex, they will be licensed in DC and can start right away. If you know that you will work in DC, should get a DC license and can start looking for a job now.

Please get the Priority book from LACHARITY, and understand the questions in and out. I just took mine today, shut off at 80 and good pop up. Anxiously waiting for the official result. Study that book and you will pass.

I am not a tech so I don't want to give you wrong info. I don't know the details on how to get a tech job and stuff. You should research further on that. My prerequisite GPA is 3.6 when I was admitted into the program. Many of my classmates found jobs quite easy. Now we are just waiting to take the NCLEX.

We just graduated May 13th. Woohoo...! Many of my classmates already got job offer. My suggestion is working as tech in the hospital first. That's how most of them got job in the hospitals. You should apply for both, see how it goes, evaluate your situation. I don't want steer you in the wrong direction. I attended some GMU info session, the traditional and ABSN seem to be very competitive. If you could get in the 4 years program, and don't have much obligations, go for it. Let me know how it turns out. Best of luck.

Congrat!

It depends on the number of application and the number of slots available. Last year, most people applied got in.

It is not online though, so you will have 3 semester to finish off. I don't know the specific requirement for that track.
