  1. HRSA/ Nurse Corps Loan Repayment Program

    claritasd replied to wife&mommyRN's topic in General Nursing

    In case anybody else searches and finds this thread: 1. For new grads, you have to have begun the job by the end of the application date. A start date after the application period (even the next day)...

  2. HRSA/ Nurse Corps Loan Repayment Program

    claritasd replied to wife&mommyRN's topic in General Nursing

    This is really old but I figured I'd revive it since I have a question and didn't see a more recent version for the loan repayment program... I will call them on Tuesday but I have an interview...

  3. CPM to CNM

    claritasd replied to SwtRainbowbrite's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    No need to feel guilty. You are NOT the only one. I never wanted to be a nurse, but here I am, halfway through an accelerated BSN. All the other students are saying "we're halfway nurses!" I think of...

  4. CNEP FNU Class 139

    claritasd replied to mommy2anangel's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Yeah, I saw that in the FAQs but had also seen a note somewhere about Maryland - since I can't find it anymore, maybe it's been removed. It had to do with out-of-state schools having clinicals in...

  5. CNEP FNU Class 139

    claritasd replied to mommy2anangel's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Fitzfam2009 - I'm a BSN student and hopefully future Frontier student, but I'm in Maryland right now. I can't find where I saw it, but somewhere on the FNU page I saw that they don't accept RN...

  6. Frontier University

    claritasd replied to JessicaDanielle's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I can't tell you first-hand, but a student told me that working part-time and school full-time, or vice versa, is

  7. Frontier University

    claritasd replied to JessicaDanielle's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Thank you so much, queenanneslace! I look forward to hearing from you guys how the program

  8. Frontier University

    claritasd replied to JessicaDanielle's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Thanks for all the info, everyone! Just so I can clarify, does the didactic portion of Frontier take a year? I see that it's 2-3 semesters for the clinical portion, but I'm wondering if the didactic...

  9. Has anyone used the online schools for their nursing pre-reqs?

    claritasd replied to erinerin87's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Once you've made sure the program accepts online, you can look into Rio Salado, like the previous poster said - I took a couple classes from there (Microbiology and Statistics); another option is West...

  10. Has anyone done their pre reqs while out of the US?

    claritasd replied to Juliafromfaraway's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I did all my prereqs online, minus Anatomy and Physiology. I started in Spring of 2013, and am finishing up this summer (though I took a few classes I didn't need after all for the schools I chose to...

  11. Need help abt Felician C.

    claritasd replied to ema.com's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Probably, but ask the school to be sure: Nursing | Felician College The website says "Students needing prerequisite courses must satisfy those requirements prior to enrolling in the nursing sequence."...

  12. any nursing programs with no waitlist and with housing anywhere in the United States

    claritasd replied to rokive's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sure there are plenty of schools without a wait list. I would start by searching the area that you're interested in; find schools that might work for you, and then go from there. The US being so...

  13. can i do a&p now or wait??

    claritasd replied to reka2014's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ^^ Seconded. It sounds like A&P probably requires a higher math level than you've completed so far, in which case they would probably only let you register for it if you passed a placement test...

  14. Shattered hopes.

    claritasd replied to panic36's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Your counselor is right that many schools in California are severely impacted. That's why I didn't bother - I only applied to schools in other states. However, 4.0 GPA is pretty darn good. If this is...

  15. Would an online A&P course affect admission?

    claritasd replied to uganurse19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd check with each school you're considering. Of the two I applied to, one said I must have in-person lab, and the other said online lab was

  16. Fresh bachelors, but need to start over?

    claritasd replied to adaroteiji's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ^Seconded. The CC might not require your transcripts, but if you apply to a BSN program later they will - and you could get in big trouble if caught lying about that. I'm guessing some schools might...

  17. Advice concerning learning Spanish

    claritasd replied to pmabraham's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I want to second the suggestion of YouTube, radio, and similar stuff in Spanish. I speak 6 languages other than my native (English), and while I've been lucky enough to work on 4 of those 6 in...

  18. can you apply for nursing school while finishing prereq classes? GCU hopeful

    claritasd replied to J89Mike's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just seconding (seventhing?) everyone else - you probably can, but check on the website. I applied to a school in January (for the following September) with 4 prereqs not even started yet! It's a...

  19. Nursing prereqs and GE?

    claritasd replied to AshleyKumar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ok, so CSUS' program is a traditional BSN, which means it's meant for people who don't have a Bachelor's. So you wouldn't need to complete your BA/BS and THEN go to CSUS, because it's another 4-year...

  20. How did you space your SCIENCE prereqs?

    claritasd replied to Grindaholic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking Microbiology and Stats at the same time right now - semester courses in an 8-week format. I'm just gonna say BAD LIFE CHOICE. I literally do nothing but study and I'm only taking two...

  21. How hard is BIO 205 at Rio Salado?

    claritasd replied to ddane94's topic in Arizona Nursing

    So far it's ok. I'm at the end of week three right now. It's a lot of work to keep up on - two units per week (with long chapters and lots of notes), with at least one assignment per unit (either a...

  22. Nursing Schools are so stupid...

    claritasd replied to HeyYouNotYouYou's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It sucks that they weigh it so heavily! But they have their reasons. Have you tried TEAS study tools? I'm sure they stress reading and basic math for a reason - nursing school is very reading-heavy...

  23. A&P Help... From My Brain to Yours!

    claritasd replied to polka-dot's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think the original poster of these notes is still around, but I'm so glad that person posted them! It is so incredibly helpful - not just to have the notes but to see what kinds of information...

  24. George Washington ABSN Fall 2014

    claritasd replied to knb3312's topic in General Nursing

    Just got an email - didn't get in. Oh well, Baltimore for me! Good luck, you

  25. ABSN/ Second Degree Nursing

    claritasd replied to keegs13's topic in General Students

    If you need the BSN for Army nursing, definitely go for it, then. As for whether to finish your Biology degree, obviously that's personal and it sounds like you're set on that. There are good...
