  2. Direct Entry/Non-Nurse

    If you're not willing to travel outside that area for direct entry then an accelerated option would be best. Then I'd pursue your masters at one of the large universities in that area as well. Just...
  3. NP vs PA vs CNS

    Almost every single direct entry NP program requires the prerequisite courses. I only know of one, that being Yale, that does not. And undergrad students just fill their elective classes with the...
  4. I have several friends that went to nursing school at UT Knox, and they all had a great experience. Tennessee is definitely a good school. That's about all I

    Also if you're looking at UMMC as an option I can say with almost certainty they will not take that score... But there are a whole lot of schools that no longer require chemistry at all. But the rest...

  7. Biology courses

    Gotta have that lab! The labs can be fun though, whereas the lecture not so much and in my experience the labs never last the full three
  8. Several minimums below a 3.00 but it may be difficult. I'd recommend taking some more classes to raise your chances or be able some form of higher experience level to the table. It's not impossible to...
  9. Require statistics for BSN?

    I would recommend both, as it will also prepare them if they wish to attend other schools. Stats is required at almost every nursing school in the country as a base requirement. There's no harm in...
  10. As long as you meet the minimum gpa requirement then you shouldn't be worried. It's about marketing all of your skills, experience, and achievements to the school and conveying strength in character...

    Criminal Justice with an emphasis in Homeland Security and minor in
  12. Is there Any hope?!

    I applied to many schools and got two rejections before being accepted to the rest of my schools! Talk to the University. Hunt them down! There's nothing wrong with that GPA. In fact it's excellent....
  13. ABSN or Masters Entry Level? Help!

    I'd recommend applying to both direct entry and accelerated programs! I did! Mostly direct entry though. Narrow down your best options of schools and start preparing your application materials right...
  14. Am I too young to get my Masters?

    If having a masters is your ultimate goal then go now! I'm 22 and headed to graduate school now, come join the
  15. Congratulations! There is a Facebook group and if you scroll up a few pages you'll probably see a link. One for the fall and one for summer. Once you're in it should be easier to connect with those of...
  16. MGH

    Continue working hard! Study for your GRE as well, but don't be discouraged if don't do well. But I would encourage you to practice the writing a lot. I feel that's the most meaningful score. Also...
  17. It's simple. All A's in everything you possibly can. You can do it if you put in absolutely everything you've got. I use to have lower grades and have friends who will think getting a B or a C is okay...
  18. Best major before BSN/MSN program?

    I agree with the advice above. My major is in zero way related to nursing, and I'm headed to nursing school. I simply picked another field that interest me! All of the other factors play a much bigger...
  19. I didn't have the opportunity to read all of the posts but I can say my girlfriend is in med school and I'm heading to direct entry np school in the fall. You need to decide what it is you want to do!...
  20. Thanks for all of the clinical information! It was very helpful? I would be interesting in gathering more information for people only admitted to BSN but not the MSN and what their chances are of...
  21. cnp2012: I'm interested in about how many clinical hours are performed each week and where for the bsn portion? I read some information on the JHU website but it wasn't very detailed. Clinical...
  22. I know Northeastern deposit deadline for accepted folks is the 18th so perhaps you'll hear after that or soon. It seems like it's decision time for almost everyone now that Hopkins decisions are out....

  24. MGH Direct-Entry Nursing 2014

    I went ahead and secured my spot MGH and paid the deposit, I'm very fond of their clinical options and just the way the program is set up, a bit over JHU, and I like Boston. I would like to confirm...
