Who else is taking the NLN this coming monday/tuesday at kingsborough? What are everyone's thoughts of science 25?? Any concerns, comments, questions please feel free to discuss them here. Future applicants feel free to ask any questions, too! Cant ...

For all those that are prenursing now, What are your plans if you aren't accepted to a nursing program? Just thinking realistically of all the possibilities that may happen, such as doing poorly on the entrance exam, not enough seats available for yo...

Honestly, just the textbook and maybe the nutrition book is more than sufficient for the course exams. You can choose your own drug book, nursing diagnosis book, and other books they require from other sources/editions. Or if your clinical instructor...

Just nursing 18 and 17. Yep, it's hella exciting. :) A decent group to study with is a lifesaver. They kept me from slacking off!

Yay! Congrats you guys!! Let us know if there are any questions. Nursing 18 (fundamentals) was nothing short of CRAZY for me. But what helped survive was skimming the book and literally focusing 95% of my energy on bullet points, charts, diagrams, b...

Some people will agree that getting accepted into a nursing program is the easiest part of your nursing career!

And so that's what I'm skeptical about, sorry to be annoying.. But I'd would love to see just one ad where it says what you specifically asked for.

- The job posting wants your degree from NLN approved school. - You have a BSN from an NLN approved school because you completed a bridge program. - My confusion is that it does NOT mention where one got their RN license and you said most hospitals...

There is a list of schools that are nlnac/ccne approved, accredited, and even non profit, if you like to check it out. It's somewhere linked in this very thread. Thanks for bolding though. Please read carefully what the minimum requirements are askin...

LadyFree28 - I believe you when you say they asked! :) Just saying that if do a legit, accredited bridge program, you will meet minimum requirements for a lot of nursing jobs.

You aren't lying about where you got your BSN degree - so I am not understanding your reasoning for saying it would be "playing the semantics game" to put that. Most want magnet status - a BSN degree is giving them magnet status - it is YOUR opinion ...

Yes, the VA and government entities will give you roadblocks about that. That is a known fact and issue if you got your license from an unaccredited institution. Unless your dream job is to work for these guys, it doesn't apply to you. By the way, I ...

So you put in your BSN school that's accredited from the RN-to-BSN bridge...or your highest degree earned.

" Graduate of an NLN approved school of professional nursing. Licensed to practice professional nursing in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. BSN from an accredited program is required. *BLS Required." Umm.. Where does this say you have to get your R...

It seems that this criteria (albeit a bit biased and unfair to many) is highly variable in regards to region and employer's point of view of schooling. I've seen mostly 'Graduate from an accredited school of nursing. BSN preferred' and 'maintain x-st...

So you find a school (rn to bsn) that's **accredited** after the adn..... You will become a RN BSN from an accredited institution upon completion. I'll say it again for emphasis: RN BSN. TheCommuter has compiled a list some excellent programs. Ther...

Hospitals will not hire for thousands, if not millions of reasons. Did i miss something that requires further clarification? The idea, again, is that the OP finishes their current ADN, and then pursue a BSN from an accredited institution after via rn...

Please refer to this useful guide... :) https://allnurses.com/online-nursing-schools/i-completed-non-912463.html

I hope you know that there are nurses that got their nursing degrees from schools that no longer exist (for example, graduated a long time ago) and thusly, fall into the same category of those who graduated from an unaccredited nursing program. Many...

I hope it will be done by Tuesday - because that's the deadline!!! Congrats on your one year anniversary with kingsborough nursing program!! :)

Why don't you just finish your adn and pass your boards first? As long as you are allowed to sit for your boards, that's what's most important. Then go through with an RNtoBSN degree from an accredited University. There are many schools that will tak...

I am excited to meet everyone on Tuesday! Can you believe (if all goes as planned), we will be taking the NCLEX in less than 2 years?? It's four semesters but if you count the months from now, it's not even 2 years. Ahhh!!! My friend was making fun o...

That would be incredibly smart of you to do. I wish I did that before starting my nursing program, because now it doesn't make sense if I got my CNA due to me starting fundamentals this Fall. After completing fundamentals, nursing students can usuall...

Give it a shot. Sorry if this was repeated, only skimmed the thread - but do your prereqs before you graduate from liberal arts. Nursing programs mostly focus on their prereqs and could care less about your overall GPA. The COLLEGE cares about your o...

They both offer the same - associates in nursing. I have a friend who went to queensborough, and graduated from their nursing program, and said it was "easy" to get in. However, I can only speak for kingsborough. I just got accepted to their progra...
