   Smwright19 posted a topic in General Students

   So I've been torn between going the NP route vs the PA route for some time. Both are appealing to me in some regards, but right now, I'm just focusing on the intensity of schooling. If both...

2. Pursue NP or PA for ER?

   Smwright19 replied to Smwright19's topic in General Students

   Thank you so much. I have a lot more research to do that I wish I'd done far earlier. It's just that recently I started to feel like I was "settling" for the job of an ER nurse, because it only...

3. Pursue NP or PA for ER?

   Smwright19 replied to Smwright19's topic in General Students

   I'm planning on living either in California (where I live now and where I will be going to college), Oregon, or Washington. I realize I should have had this change of plans before I've already had my...

4. Pursue NP or PA for ER?

   Smwright19 replied to Smwright19's topic in General Students

   Would you recommend working as an RN first and going back to PA school, then? Or is that not an efficient plan of action? And if I were to try to become a PA from the start, would I have to switch...

   Smwright19 posted a topic in General Students

   I will be starting college as a pre-nursing student in one month. My goal is to work in the ER, and I also want to become either an NP or PA for several reasons. However, at this point, I'm not...

   Hi, sorry I just saw this. I'm in the middle of the college app process right now, actually. I'm applying early action for George Fox, Concordia (Portland), Linfield, Azusa Pacific, and Point Loma,...

   Bakersfield isn't exactly in my top 10 dream destinations, so I don't think I will apply to school there. Can you tell me more about the TEAS V? How exactly does that work? And are all CSUs

   No, thank you so much. This is actually really helpful. In case I change my mind or realize that the money situation isn't going to work out or something, these are the schools I'm definitely...

   I have actually, but I thought they didn't have an undergrad BSN program, only accelerated and

10. Best West Coast BSN Programs?

    Smwright19 replied to Smwright19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Awesome! I have a more specific question regarding George Fox. Did your friends apply as freshmen or did they do any prereqs at a CC? Is it easy to transfer in (and still receive financial aid) as a...

    Good for you! I've heard good things about Regis and I hope you do well there. I've visited PLNU and stayed in dorms for a church thing over Memorial weekend... for three years in a row. I absolutely...

    Smwright19 replied to Smwright19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for your input (again! I remember you helped with another question of mine). How important is it to graduate near where you want to live? Would it be reasonable to go to a CSU then move to...

    Smwright19 replied to Smwright19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Okay, thanks for clearing that up. I think I'll put off worrying about this until I actually get accepted. Right now, I need to focus on the app essays and

    Smwright19 replied to Smwright19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the advice! I hadn't considered doing that, since I'm only a high school senior and I don't even know what college I'm going to yet. But it makes sense to start early, especially with the...

15. Best West Coast BSN Programs?

    Smwright19 replied to Smwright19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would really love to live in the Pacific Northwest (specifically, Portland), and private schools have the same tuition for out of state students, so it would make sense if I go out of state....
