  1. Opinions on Rivier University for BSN?

    laschai posted a topic in School, College Programs

    I've been accepted to Rivier University in NH for the BSN program. It's cheaper than some of the other colleges I got into, and I liked the campus on a tour, so I'm highly considering going there....

    laschai replied to laschai's topic in School, College Programs

    I did end up going there, yes. I finished my first year, aka the prerequisites, May 4th (that was the last day of finals). I'm starting Nursing 101 w/ clinical and lab and Microbio w/ lab in the fall....

  3. How much training and work in other areas did it take you to get a job as an ER nurse?

    laschai posted a topic in Emergency

    I am starting work towards my BSN this fall, and as of now I want to be an ER/trauma nurse. This may change if I discover I actually can't handle that much blood (though I think I can), but that's the...

  4. How much training and work in other areas did it take you to get a job as an ER nurse?

    laschai replied to laschai's topic in Emergency

    1. That's good to know, thank you. 2. That makes sense. How long do you recommend working in another unit before going to the ED, and which units would you

  5. How much training and work in other areas did it take you to get a job as an ER nurse?

    laschai replied to laschai's topic in Emergency

    I found a list of programs by state and found 3 in MA and 1 in NH. I went to the websites listed AND googled them and got dead ends. Maybe it's because I'm searching on my phone, rather than my...

  6. How much training and work in other areas did it take you to get a job as an ER nurse?

    laschai replied to laschai's topic in Emergency

    I have heard of ER residencies. Unfortunately, it seems there aren't that many of them near me. I think there's one in MA. Either that, or they just don't advertise/talk about the other ones very...

  7. Are you going for BSN or ASN?

    laschai replied to Farrah 34's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    laschai replied to guest973135's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm a senior in high school right now. I'm applying to 4 year BSN programs. Actually, I already applied to 7. For specialty, at this point I want to be either a trauma nurse working in a major trauma...

    laschai posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm about to finish my junior year of high school, which means it's time to get serious about looking at colleges. My grades aren't the best (mostly B's and C's), but I expect my SAT scores will be...

  11. Online pre-nursing courses?

    laschai posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I really want to be able to complete my prerequisites before I finish high school. What are some online schools that offer nursing prerequisite courses for high schoolers? Or, if it helps, community...

  12. Evening Nursing Program at Community College?

    laschai posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    laschai posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How do you get the prerequisites before you apply for nursing school? Do you have to take a year of college first, or take them as a summer program during high school or something? Or do they have you...

    laschai posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm a sophomore in high school, so this year and the previous year we didn't get choices for classes. However, next year we get to choose science classes. I'm guessing I should take chemistry...

  18. How do prerequisites work?

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

    Ok, so basically what you guys are saying here is that you have to go to regular college to take the prerequisites for a year or two before you can enter a 4 year BSN program? You can't enter the...

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