  1. PhD vs DNP

    rachaelofcourse replied to Hoyasaxa96's topic in General Students

    My "Professional Issues in Nursing" book states that DNP is more for those who want to practice. If you want to teach, I would go

  2. Dual BSN

    rachaelofcourse replied to Satori77's topic in General Students

    I am in a concurrent enrollment program that is an ADN and BSN program where you graduate with your BSN a semester after your ADN. For my program, the BSN classes are online and you work through the...

  3. Mayo New Grad RN Residency program (Feb/2016)

    rachaelofcourse replied to mrsboots87's topic in Arizona Nursing

    In only saying what GW's clinical coordinator told us. She said, and I quote, "Mayo is now only accepting CEP students." It would've been easier for GW to send traditional students to Mayo as all the...

  10. anyone getting 3.8 or higher GPA in CEP Nursing programs?

    rachaelofcourse replied to Nurse4TLA's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I got a B in block 1 and did well in my CEP classes. I'm just going to be honest and tell you that it'll be difficult to work part time, keep a high GPA, and still have time to have a social life....

  11. GWCC/ASU Cep Spring 2017

    rachaelofcourse replied to Sloyola's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I am about to start block 2 at GWCC in the UIU CEP. A lot of what you'll be doing right now is waiting. I know, it sucks because you want to know everything right away! At least I felt this way. How...

  12. Giving up my dog

    rachaelofcourse replied to Bsb5685's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Poor dog. I have a husband, a one year old, and work full time. Sure, some days I want to send my husband back to the shelter because he's being a jerk, but I don't because I love him. Hopefully this...

  13. Desperate for Advice: ASN or ABSN (Santa Fe College, UF)

    rachaelofcourse replied to ChangingPaths's topic in General Students

    I don't have any knowledge of employers not hiring when you're in an RN-MSN program. I would be inclined to believe they would still hire you, as an MSN is a higher degree. With an MSN, you'd be able...

  14. Desperate for Advice: ASN or ABSN (Santa Fe College, UF)

    rachaelofcourse replied to ChangingPaths's topic in General Students

    There are some ASN-MSN programs out there. I would look into doing that, then going MSN-DNP. Honestly though, get through the actual NCLEX and being a nurse for awhile before considering DNP. Just my...

  15. Work full time -school full time

    rachaelofcourse replied to AshBuggin's topic in General Students

    If you are able and willing, you could consider cutting back your hours. If that is not an option, just manage your time effectively. Remember that nursing school is a speck of time and the payoff is...

  17. Starting Pay for CNA

  18. Upper Iowa CEP

    rachaelofcourse replied to AZBlueBell's topic in Arizona Nursing

    For CEP, you have to have to co-reqs done for MCCD prior to the start of CEP. So yes, you would have to finish BIO 205

  19. Starting Pay for CNA

    rachaelofcourse replied to rachaelofcourse's topic in Arizona Nursing

    You're totally welcome! Hopefully you'll be able to apply sooner then.

  20. Starting Pay for CNA

    rachaelofcourse replied to rachaelofcourse's topic in Arizona Nursing

    In response to your first question, I am awaiting approval from the Board of Nursing to test. As soon as I get my license, I'll get a pay raise. Since I was already waiting to test and my name is in...

  21. Starting Pay for CNA

    rachaelofcourse replied to rachaelofcourse's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm just going to give you my advice, because I had the same thought as you. If you go get your CNA from AMTI, it's going to cost more than what block 1 does. Essentially, you're spending double the...

    I can't answer this because I'm in the RN program.

  24. Starting Pay for CNA

    rachaelofcourse replied to rachaelofcourse's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I have not, because of some confusion in the process. You have to submit your application and waiver to the board of nursing, wait for them to process, then submit the application for the test and...

  25. Maricopa community colleges-5 choices-which option were you placed?

    rachaelofcourse replied to bluechip's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I can only speak for GWCC (I'm about to start block 2 with UIU CEP) but my cohort had a huge age range. No one really cares about your age - at least in cohort. I agree with Mrs. B (as usual :) ) that...
