As the title suggests, I have 4 years of only an aesthetic nursing career. I have no interest in working in the hospital and have the knowledge that I would not flourish in this type of stressful setting. However, I am interested in becoming a NP. I...

Hi all, last year I was accepted to a nursing school across the country. I am 35 and wanted to finish. The program is an accelerated program. 12 months to be exact. I filed for disability services one month before school began in January. The f...

Hi fellow nurses, I have not been on this form in quite some time. However, I would like to inform everyone after being dismissed from school for bad grades I filed an appeal and was let back in seven months later. During that time I moved back to L...

Here is the latest: I filed an appeal to the University of Miami a-bsn and was let go 7 months ago for not passing 2 courses. They gave me disability serves but did not accommodate me with them. I spoke with the Dean in person and was still dismissed...

Thank you for your reply. Keep in touch to tell me what happens.

Thank You!

llg I appreciate your comments. I believe everything happens for a reason. It is a shame that I did not take the time to research myself and my learning style prior to starting. I am partly to blame and I take some of the responsibility. Befor...

It partly is a nursing question because I am asking if there is any schools that would take some of the credits or if i have to start all over. I have done some research and it seems as if nothing counts and I would have to start from square one.

Thank you for your input. However, I applied for disability services not in conjunction with starting. I submitted my paperwork when I was first accepted which was a month prior to starting. I don't understand your comment about "maybes". My pap...

Hi Everyone, I was admitted to University of Miami School of Nursing ABSN program. It starts Jan 5th 2016 and ends Dec 16, 2016. I live in California and am dying to go. However, it is my second bachelors degree, therefore, I am not able to ge...

schools stop taking prereqs after a certain time and I am one of those candidates that will have to start retaking things. Not willing to do that. I mean it is a good suggestion. I am currently in a second bachelors for speech pathology but w...

Thank you everyone for your wonderful advice! I was able to get a loan from Sallie Mae for the first semester, as of Wednesday. The program is one year (not even 12 months for a BSN). I am 35 years old so I thought this was a great option because...

Where did you find the scholarships that offer that high of an amount? How long did it take to receive?

Look for a job to work for five minutes? I start my program in a month!

education is is ridiculously expensive these days :Emoticon-Devil:

I have $25,000 from my first bachelors. But because my program is a year they can only give us $18, 625 for the whole year. I also heard that is was up to $57,000. I am not sure why I am getting short changed.

Well it is official as of today I have been accepted to two different accelerated nursing programs which both start January 2016. My dilemma is I do not know which one to choose . The first school is in Portland Maine The University of New Englan...

That is just ridiculous that you are already in a NP program and you have to go back and do stats. Isn't that a requirement prior to enrolling in the program?

I Have to finish this damn statistics class by December 23, 2015. I was just accepted to two different accelerated bachelors in nursing schools. They both start in January. However, my acceptance is contingent on me finishing this course. I t...

Thank you HouTx. Solid advice! You think a better route is to finish the second-degree BSN get experience and then proceed to get my DNP perhaps online while I'm working, instead of going the first path that I had stated? I noticed on nursingCa...

Well as far as moving I'm OK with it if it's just for a year. I would like to stay close to family and I will most likely move back. Unfortunate most of the schools here are very impacted. I am sure if I tried long enough I would get in, however, I...

Yes I would love to go to Florida but the scholarship as in me and fortunately I don't have super wealthy parents

I was just accepted!

Brandon I'm sorry to hear that for the mere fact that I know a few very independently wealthy people in my circle. And just because they have money does not mean that they have no problems . In fact most of them are very depressed and not doing ...
