  1. Towson University Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to jennyxyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    aalamo, were you able to see the inside of the school, where the healthcare suites were? When I went for an adviser meeting, I wasn't able to have a tour. When I asked for a tour, they asked if I was...

  2. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Yeah I just spoke to my friend about this just now. After reading it, it would be more cemented after hearing it in class... more understandable. I was thinking of sort of doing your version before,...

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Wow! That is pretty intense, smoup! I'm in awe haha! That is a great idea to read the entire material beforehand... Though I'm not sure if I could retain it all. Unless you take the notes while you...

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thanks again for clarifying, lxcalibur3! I was always thinking that taking one of the non-clinical courses would be good, but I'd been told it could interfere with the schedule. I'll look into it if I...

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thanks for the input, smoup! So you took summer classes? How did you go about requesting this, and what did your adviser think of it? From my understanding, there are prerequisites for many of the...

    littlemango replied to jennyxyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    aalamo, congrats on your acceptance! I'm about 30 minutes from the Hagerstown campus, and the commute is beeeautiful! And against traffic. Woohoo! I'm sure once the program starts you'll find other...

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    lxcalibur3, thanks for the recommendation! I also have a question about the new curriculum as well, which kind of ties in to what bcandygurl asked above. Basically, there is a class called Research...

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    lxcalibur3 YOU ARE THE BEST!!! I really like your method. Which campus do you go to again? I wonder if Shady Grove's campus lets you rent the books. I am currently going through my budget and I'm not...

    !!! lxcalibur3 you posted RIGHT BEFORE I posted haha! Time to

  10. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    bcandygurl that's entirely the way I study now, since to me looking through the textbook just seems too much. I am wondering the same about UMSON students and their textbook-studying situation......

  11. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Yes, I'm with katiep_123 on that. What I'm confused about is why it has two separate programs in one application. Anyway, call them tomorrow when they open in the morning and update us! And wow,...

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    lxcalibur3 thank you for the breakdown! I really appreciate it. Military time is something I've actually been working on for the past few years. We need it for our specimens at work when we scan them...

    bsn-hope I am so happy for you! I just got on the thread to check and see how it went! Now yes, get that Micro done! Haha! afowler77 I totally agree with you. It's sad that the nursing culture has...

  14. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Oh my, and Georgetown is pretty pricey as well. Nonetheless, if that is the only option, where there is a will there is a way! Also, I believe Towson has a Masters program as well, at the Hagerstown...

  15. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    amandc21, regarding the change to the doctorate degree, I believe that's the same as what I heard in the July open house at Shady Grove, but again, I'm not entirely sure. I'd like to get a good answer...

  16. Towson University Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to jennyxyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I'm with you on that afowler77. I've been to some of the other posts and I've seen alot of nurses put others down for their opinions, perhaps being a little harsher than they should because of the...

  17. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    bcandygurl, what a heavy schedule that will be! I don't doubt that you'll be fine, though. You've gone through nursing school already, so your ability to utilize time is probably better than us...

  18. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Yes that is true about PAs, you would definitely have a specialization through NP. kirstens there are some winter/summer classes, though I don't think they'd let you take one this January. From what...

  19. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Ah I see! Yeah I can understand that, it would be a hard transition. And yes, it'd be the four years plus all of the years getting the prereqs. Add that up, it could be a minimum of six years! That's...

  20. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    bcandygurl I was thinking that was why you were going for it! I was going to suggest PA school if the Master's at UMSON didn't work out. From what I know, most are about 2 years

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    itsmylife I'm wondering the same thing. Perhaps call admissions for UMB? Maybe they mixed your applications

    lxcalibur, welcome to the thread and congrats on your upcoming graduation!!! :) And no worries! I have a spare BP cuff from phlebotomy school sitting around haha! But thank you for the heads up! (So...

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I'm sure you'd be an amazing doctor if it comes down to it bcandygurl! But let's all hope for the sake of our Master's hopefuls that it stays that way. I'm trying to remember if they said anything...

  24. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    At the moment, I'd like to be an infusion nurse, or work with an IV team. I'd probably need some medsurg experience though, so I'm thinking my first years out of nursing school, I'll do that, and then...

  25. UMSON Spring 2015

    littlemango replied to littlemango's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Oh hey, that sounds awesome! Lower rates! How high are you going to go, regarding your degrees? Masters in nursing? Any specialty you have in mind at the moment? I know UMSON has some excellent...
