    direw0lf replied to Meldel's topic in General Students

    direw0lf replied to xjay22's topic in General Students

    direw0lf replied to 2bnursesanders1989's topic in General Students

    direw0lf replied to lpn1986's topic in School, College Programs

    direw0lf replied to sjefferson's topic in General Students

    Oh I think I might have misunderstood this thread from the start, I thought the op couldn't start this nursing program she was just accepted in without more income or loans. Very sorry

  14. Help paying for school

    direw0lf replied to sjefferson's topic in General Students

  20. Should I just wait until i graduate and then go into direct entry nursing program

    direw0lf replied to MSBREELEE's topic in General Students

    I think you should slow it down imho. You're jumping all over. No need to make a decision so fast really. I think the advice you got for counselling is a good one. If you're still enrolled in a...
