   I haven't been able to find the group on Facebook -- I think we're cohort 13 (my friend started last fall and she's cohort 12). Would you mind updating it? I'd love to connect with some of you! I apparently haven't posted enough on here to allow for ...

   I too like that Northeastern emphasizes experiential learning. Plus, I like that they award the BSN/RN after 16 months, rather than at the end of the program. I think it will be beneficial to be able to work as an RN to gain experience, as well as ha...

   skigirl470: I was accepted to the neonatal track for northeastern, peds for MGH. That's one of my deciding points -- I think I ultimately want to end up in the NICU, but during my interview at NEU they said that jobs and placements are limited in New...

   Accepted to peds! Now it's decision time...NEU or MGH? I'm mostly worried about cost at this point -- anyone else deciding between these two? I wish they would tell me EXACTLY how much this degree is going to cost. it's pretty vague on the sites.
