Thanks. I will check out the group. I know I should probably know all of these. I am the LAST person to ask for help, believe me. I am a helper, not a helpee. Yet, I am desperate. If I do not pass this class my 3.8 GPA will suffer tremendously and my dream of being a nurse will bite the dust. So, now is the time to ask for help. My professor is great. In all fairness to him, our tests usualy aren't this hard. He just did this bc he said we could use any resource we wanted. He even said, "Ask your next door neighboor." Unfortuantely, I don't live next door to a doctor or nurse. If I did I would be over there BEGGING for help. Thanks, everyone. I've just broke out all my "Anatomy for Dummies" books. Now to pull an all-nighter....

Hi, I'm still in college working on pre-reqs, but am thinking about going into Missionary Nursing. Do most organizations accept an ASN degree or must you have a BSN or higher? Also, do you know if I must have work experience before signing on, or can a new grad become a nurse-missionary. I'm a Christian and have always wanted to go on missions. If any of you have, could you tell me what countries are the best (maybe safest) for this. Also, I know as a missionary of any kind, pay is not really important, but do you get enough to survive? Thanks, any imput is appreciated NeDix9

Soooo..I'm kinda hearing a lot of pros and cons on each side. I guess I'll just apply everywhere and accept where I get in. Hey, at least I know they are all good schools! I'm going to career counceling Monday. Hopefully, I'll have a better idea of what I want to be when I grow up (haha)! Thanks, Nedix9

Thanks everyone! I will definately keep SJRCC in mind. You guys are so encouraging. I guess you chose the right profession!

I've thought about JU, but honestly, with the high cost of tuition, I would probably rethink careers before attending there. I'm still not 100% sure about nursing. As of the 10th grade I had always wanted to be a famous journalist (classmates said I lived to join corporate America), but due to family restrictions, I will not be able to attend journalism school where I had wished. In addition, I despertly need stability. I need a career that will last. I do not intend on staying in Jax too long and I don't have family, or really anyone in the world to turn to if I were to ever be unemployed. I'm not looking to get rich in a career, only make enough money to live comfortably and perhaps save enough to backpack across Europe one day (one of my far far out carzy dreams.):roll So, when I started thinking of this 2 years ago, nursing came to mind:nurse: . After all I know many RN's who have said I would make a great nurses. These are wonderful nurses so hearing it from them was a huge compliment. I definately want a job, where I will be needed, and hopefully appreciated. I am very spirtual, and am thinking of also being a missionary (nursing would definately come in handy). Anyway, I'm doing all my pre-reqs for nursing and going to career counceling. the last thing I would want is to get into a nursing program, then figure out its not for me. I would have wasted someone's spot, not to mention money that I cannot really afford. Sorry for making this post so long, but in my personality tests Recongition and Acheivement came up as my two greatest desires from a job (believe me, I'm sooo not self centered. this is just my personality, I cannot change it). How much of this do you get form nursing? I need a career where I will be treated as an equal human being. How do MDs treat RNs? I could not have a job where I was looked down upon. Thanks everyone for all the great advice!!!

Thanks so much for the replies! flrn18- Your insight was really helpful! I really believe I'll go the same route that you did. Tuition Reinbursement would be wonderful! How did you like FCCJ? What kind of hours did you attend class? JR816- I will apply at SJRCC as well. How do you like their program?

Thanks so much for the reply. I feel a whole lot better now. With UNF turning down people with 4.0 GPA's, I'd rather not risk everything for the slim chance to get in there.

Hi, Everyone! I'm an 18 year old pre-nursing student completing pre-reqs for my local nursing schools, FCCJ and UNF. I am currently a freshman at FCCJ, but wish to complete my bachelor's. Although this is my ultimate goal, UNF only admits 48 students twice a year and I do not have a lot of time to wait on a list as I really need to be in a career soon. My GPA is 3.80 right now, but I've yet to take Chem. or Micro. so it probably will go down. Do you think that I should complete my Associates in Nursing first then do a bachelors or should I just keep my heart on UNF? By the way, in December I will have my AA degree, then I would probably go on to nursing school at FCCJ for another 1.5 years only to recieve an AS. I could wait, however, until the summer semester, and hope that I get in UNF. If so, I would only spend one more semester and recieve a bach. degree. The RN-BSN takes at least 3 to 4 semesters, time I do not think I would commit when I began to work full time. I have scholarships which should pay for everything providing I attend school without interruption, so If I were to go for an AS then take a semester off before the RN-BSN program started I would forfeit my scholarship. I am from Jacksonville, FL. Does anyone know if Baptist Hospital, Shands, or St. Vincents pays for an RN-BSN program for its nurses? If so, then maybe I should deeply consider going for my AS first then BSN. My worst nighmare would be postponing nursing school for 2 or more semesters to try to get in UNF only to be rejected:crying2: . Sorry for the long post. Any insight would be appreciated. If anyone has ever attended FCCJ or UNF's nursing schools could you give me any info about the programs. What kind of hours do/did you attend school?
