  2. i can not decide between absn or start from 0

    eris08 replied to nesmamohamed's topic in General Students

    Hey! I would go with the ABSN because it is less time and less costly. You can still take out federal student loans if you have not maxed out your undergrad ones. In addition, you can apply for...

  3. No friend in nursing school?

    eris08 replied to Student2017555's topic in General Students

  8. Illegal immigrant nurses can now be licensed in California

    eris08 replied to Guest07/13/15's topic in Immigration Advice

    eris08 replied to johndabaker's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Katmos, I also recommend looking into the NurseCorp loan repayment program after we graduate :) it pays 60% of your nursing loans including private loans, but you will have to work in underserved area...

    eris08 replied to Guest07/13/15's topic in Immigration Advice

    Anna you are incorrect in your statement that illegal immigrants get lesser tuition costs than legal citizens. They do not get federal aid and have to pay tuition cost out of pocket. Most of the times...

  18. NURSE Corps Scholarship 2015

    eris08 replied to CDUBRN's topic in General Nursing

    Jbotwe2, I hope it does not affect those that applied since they give preference to those with an EFC of 0-5,500. I got a very high EFC but it doesn't truly reflect my situation at all.

    eris08 replied to _zoubisoubisou_'s topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume
