Hi guys! I'm really thinking about becoming a FNP. There's just one thing tho- the pay! Every website I look at says the salary is anywhere between 75 and 95k. Surely, this is not the actual pay of a FNP. I've heard a little about productivity stipen...

Hi guys! I've saw several threads similar to this one; however, they were all several years old. I'm wondering if any hospitals in Mississippi still offer the tuition payment in exchange for a work commitment. I've contacted Forrest General in Hattie...

Hi everyone! I just applied to a BSN program and also an LPN program. I'm actually considering the LPN program over the BSN bc I would literally have almost no student loan debt by going through the community college mainly. But I'm also considering ...

Thank you so much for sharing! You gave some really useful information! My state, Mississippi, seems to be pretty strict as well so I'm thinking hard about moving to Texas or Florida. Both seem to be ok with giving second chances.

Hi! I'm so glad to hear your story. Do you have any experience or know of anything that's gotten licensed as a NP and gotten a DEA # to prescribe meds with a criminal background?

The best advice that I can give you is to hire an attorney to help you through the process of applying for your license! It's shows that you're a responsible adult serious about becoming a nurse.

Hi guys! Hopefully I didn't post this twice. The first time it froze and it's not showing up on my activity log. So sorry if it happens! Anyway, I want to become a NP. I'm concerned with being able to get a license and a DEA # to prescribe meds. I wa...

Point taken! Those are all great incentives.

It's no problem

It doesn't seem like there's much incentive for a BSN to take the additional steps to become a NP, which is really sad to me. How many days do you typically work per week?

Thanks to everyone that replied! NPs should def be paid more! I honestly can't believe it. It just seems so silly that you guys are pretty much doing a physicians job and aren't even making 100k per year. I could live with that! I know it's due to th...

So when you say bonus you mean an end of the year bonus? Not add that to your monthly pay bonus?

Thats def a great idea! I almost can't help myself though. I'm a planner and not being able to decide on what I'm going to do with my life is killing me! Thank you for replying.

Thank you for sharing!!

Mississippi. I'm aware that I would most likely have to move to land a nice paying job. I just thought you guys were paid more. You def should be!

Please indicate whether the income you are writing about is before or after taxes. Thanks guys!

I'm not sure why everyone gets so bent out of shape about people asking questions like this! I just applied so I know exactly how you feel and a little bit of encouragement goes a long way. Basically they assign points for the different aspects of yo...

Are you applying for a program this year?

Regardless the goal will be the same- a bachelors. Just not sure which path would be wiser. One will take more time but cost less and the other will take less time but cost more. Thanks for yals response! I appreciate the advice!

Thanks guys! I've never heard of the 3 year hospital program. Didn't know it existed.

diploma nurse. You mean LPN? Or ADN? Sorry, I'm confused.

I know nothing about that particular test, but from the percentile ranking I think you have a great chance at being accepted! Good luck! And your GPA looks wonderful as well.

I recently spoke to the LPN counselors and they have changed the one year of experience thing even though it is still on their website. The possibility of wasting that time scares me though! Thank you for your advice! How was the summer bridge progra...

Hi! I'm applying for PRCC's Lpn and Usm's bsn for fall 2015. I'm interested in knowing what the chances of actually getting into the bridge to Rn program are? Im applying to the Lpn as a backup of course. Obviously I would like to get into usm and co...

ShoeGalRn: what do you mean by you get paid for 36 hours? Could you please explain that a little bit. Also, could I do fri and sat night instead of sunday.. or fri and sat day shift?? Sorry I can't figure out how to just reply to your response
