  2. Regis FNP, PNP online

  6. 4 year vs 2 year

    This is definitely dependent on your area. I know in the area I live in, most hospitals are requiring a BSN for new hires (I live in large metro area in the Northeast). If you don't mind working...

  9. I will go ahead and send you a private message.
  10. Exploring Options

  11. NPs in Phoenix

    Thank you both very much for your input! I am still a ways out from graduating, but I will definitely take this into consideration. I figured it might be a "who you know" type of situation,...

  14. Regis Direct Entry NP Fall 2016

  17. Regis Direct Entry NP Fall 2016

  22. Regis College reviews?

    I appreciate that I am able to complete my graduate education at Regis, but I just think that Simmons is a better school overall. It has a fantastic reputation in the Boston area with clinical...
