@ghillbert , thank you for your response and honesty. I have heard a similar response from many of the RNs I work with at the hospital. It seems the medical model route (either PA or MD) seems to be the most ideal for the trauma world. Definitely foo...
Greetings, This is my first post on here and I thank the community here for their knowledgeable contributions as I frequently read the articles and discussions. So I am currently a BSN student with one semester to go to finish my program. Over the pa...
oldandintheway, haha absolutely! My dad attended MTSU as an engineering major and said that when Austin Peay would come to play sports against MTSU, the MTSU students had a chant that went "If you can't go to college, go to peay" (pronouncing it just...
teapiglets, Thanks so much for your kind comment! I am glad to hear you think I am considering this wisely :) It's always great to hear advice from people with experience! I have only been in a hospital a few times in my life (thankfully, never have ...
elkpark, thanks for your input! Yes, that's very true! Honestly, I think Ill be happy wherever I go to college, as long as the education is a quality one. But I'd love to move to Florida one day, maybe when I'm older. Thanks again for your input!
Heathermaizey, I'm glad to hear that you think Austin Peay is an excellent college! I know I want to be a mid-level provider so I will at least get an MSN but I was thinking of getting a DNP while I'm still younger and have less responsibilities. And...
twozer0, thanks for your input! After hearing from everyone hear, and then some family and friends, I think my decision is going to be a state school and end up coming out debt free :) as far as my intentions, I strongly desire to be a Nurse Practiti...
Thanks so much for your input! And yes, I don't want to become another statistic of a student who over-payed for an education. I am leaning towards going to a state school with no debt
meanmaryjean, I would have to agree with you, this has been my thinking as the logistics of paying this off would be very difficult, plus if I had saved $40,000 I could have bought my dream car of an Aston Martin DB7 and still have another $20,000 ha...
RNinIN, Absolutely, thats what I've been thinking about, the way I see it, $40,000 could more than buy my dream car or a down payment on a house, so I'm really leaning towards going to a state school instead. Thanks for your input! :)
Greetings, I posted a thread regarding the cost of school and everyone on here has been so helpful! I have a question regarding a guaranteed seat program I have been accepted to. I am a high school senior who plans to earn a BSN and then a DNP. I hav...

Honey Clover, CNA, thanks for your input! :) I am definitely considering going to a state school for my first 4 years especially since I could go for little to no money. I certainly don't want to work too much in school as I would rather focus on stu...

OnOn2RN, Thanks for your input! :) I definitely agree with you, the school is expensive and I'm not sure I want to spend that kind of money. The way I see it, if I went to a state school and paid little to no money, I could end up saving close to $4...
