  1. Private loan and no co-signer

    Hmarie12 replied to Davis.M's topic in General Students

    My program is over $50K. It's an entry-level master's program. So to me, it's not that much and I would go. I would be worried that I got into this program, but I might not get into another one...

  3. PLU elmsn 2015

    Hmarie12 replied to May25's topic in Washington Nursing

    That's great that you work at a hospital already! It is hard to get a CNA hospital job with no experience. Took me 8 months after getting licensed! I think volunteering helped. I volunteered in...

  4. Will I ever become a nurse?

    Hmarie12 replied to PrettyNerd's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Haters are going to hate. If you want to be a nurse, be a nurse! I graduated high school in 2008 and am starting nursing school this year. I felt at times like I would never get here. I was having...

  13. Is it worthwhile to become a CNA before going to nursing school?

    Hmarie12 replied to little-chick2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it is a good idea, it can only help you. I was also told not to bother by a current nursing student, but I am glad that I did become one. You may not get much experience in that timeframe,...

    Hmarie12 replied to NCGal78's topic in Emergency

    I used to volunteer in the ED before I became a CNA. I mostly made coffee, stocked rooms with gloves/linens and carts with medical supplies, made sure blanket warmers stayed full and occasionally ran...

  17. Why NOT private??

    Hmarie12 replied to MssNurse2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I will be attending a private university for my nursing program this summer. Yes, it will be expensive, and yes, I will have to take out a lot in loans. But nurses make a pretty darn good salary so...

    Hmarie12 replied to katiiiee31's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA
