   Found out I'm an alternate so I'm staying hopeful that some people choose other programs! How long did they give you to decide/give your deposit?

   msuRNcc replied to SpartyRN's topic in SRNA

   Did anyone interview Sept 14? The interview email said 90 minutes and the interview time slot (plus comments here) suggest it's 30 minutes. I'm just wondering which it is. Thanks!

6. USA Dual ACNP/FNP program?

   msuRNcc replied to msuRNcc's topic in Post Graduate

   No, I will be in NC, but I am transferring in so I won't really be with the class starting in the fall (starting clinical instead). However, I have talked to people in the FNP and they said it was very self taught but they liked it.

   MikeRN84, no, that one class is a research course. Pharm has been a lot of work but pretty straightforward!

8. ASN to MSN

   msuRNcc replied to jamiemontreal's topic in Post Graduate

   I'm currently working full time while in a DNP program. I don't have kids, but I'm supporting my husband who is in CRNA school. I haven't had a problem yet, and we start clinical at the same time so we won't see each other much, but it makes us reall...

9. Info on working while obtaining MSN degree

   msuRNcc replied to Valsabatini's topic in Post Graduate

   It will really depend on your program, schedule, daycare options, and time management skills. I'm currently working full time while in a DNP program, but I've always done better with a really full schedule to force me to stay on track and I learn bet...

10. Grad School

    msuRNcc replied to j.wulff95's topic in Post Graduate

    If your goal is to become a CRNA, why are you trying for FNP? it seems like a waste of time, money and a spot for someone else who actually wants to be a NP. Regardless of this, look into what different schools require. All will have a simple FAQ or ...

11. GRE preparation

    msuRNcc replied to S.G.'s topic in Post Graduate

    Lucillern1, The GRE site has a lot of free information regarding test content, practice questions, etc. How you learn should determine your study style, but there are many ways to prepare. I have friends who have taken those prep-classes and did awe...

12. CRNA admission

    msuRNcc replied to PTach00's topic in SRNA

    I doubt it, usually by the time you apply and go through the interviewing/acceptance process, the previous class is already a semester or more ahead and there is no way you would catch up. Plus clinicals are already starting by that point so it would...

13. Community College nursing classes

    msuRNcc replied to Dgardella's topic in ADN/BSN

    You should be able to talk to a nursing advisor who can give you a general curriculum plan and time frame, they may also have information meetings. The timeframe also depends on how the CC is set up. Mine was a point system that started fresh every y...

14. DNP Program requirements

    msuRNcc replied to angelinemb80's topic in Post Graduate

    If you ask them, they say you shouldn't work. I don't have kids in my current program (not USA), and work full time and I find that I'm busy but it is manageable. My understanding is that USA is more self-taught, as a result you'll likely need more t...

15. How much do new BSN nursing grads make?

    msuRNcc replied to gonnaB37nursedoc's topic in ADN/BSN

    As everyone else has said, it can really vary based on location, competition and if the hospital is unionized. I worked at a hospital in MI at made $27 base and this is on the lower end for the state (my PRN pay was $40/hr). I just moved to NC and to...
