We all wish that they would be required but they aren't. It's all part of bad legislation. If schools can get away with it, they would.

If you ask me personally, I think no school should ever offer a program to the public that isn't CCNE accredited since it is required by most if not all. I find it atrocious to be wasting the time, effort, and money of people who trusted you. You mus...

They should be rushing by now to get the post master accredited before January 2026. If they will instead wait at the next program cycle then they would have screwed their current students with this announcement from ANCC below: **IM...

This is probably why you don't see a lot of reviews about this school, people would rather not say the bad things about them. Yes, you get what you pay for. It's an extremely challenging program, as previously mentioned, the professors are paid by th...

TX board will also not issue license without the US SSN. I have a friend who directly applied for licensure by exam, when she passed the test,she didn't get the license because she doesn't have ssn. Like CA, they also require it.

Okay, thanks for the information.

Thanks, it's very informative.

Indeed, you are absolutely correct. Yes, right. Thanks for presenting your view and I agree with it. I just hope that in the near future, SSA could address this one, I mean, giving what they lack to get the license, the US social security number. Hav...

This particular statement is what I find most interesting... Has anyone tried to contact the US social security with this source? I would really be interested to hear of the results... Maybe they could provide an SSN number that does not have work au...

Congratulations! That hospital is near our province, I mean it's nearer than Manila from where I'm at. I wonder what are the chances of getting hired in that facility and I'm wondering if they are hiring nurses there right now...Hope many other hospi...

page 19 there in that document is very interesting...

You may not fully understand how or why we Filipinos would react to such, as you were not exposed to the kind of difficulties we have here in the Philippines. After all these horrible things that are happening there in K.S.A. , they'd require it now....

ANSAP training for IV certification/license is limited, by that I mean that not all of the nurses in the country can apply for the training especially if they are away from Manila. Here in Bacolod, I haven't heard of any upcoming or scheduled trainin...

I'm sorry to hear about this, and personally and I am saddened by this "inequality/bias" among employers...I have nothing against the female counterpart, however, I feel as is there is some sort of discrimination worldwide among hiring firms these da...

Since CHED has not issued any guidelines or did any branch of the government issue IPR(implementing rules and regulations), the details of these degrees vary from school to school. Some schools who do not offer MN, just have MAN and MSN, with the fo...

I'm not sure if we have "TRUE" online programs here, but from the looks of it, we still have a long way to go...I don't think it's going to be implemented here in the near future...We are way behind the USA in almost all aspects, including distance/o...

This bank draft/demand draft issue has been in existence for quite a long time now in RP banks where a client would seem to have no option or nowhere to go unless he/she is really rich and can afford to open an account. If I were a bank, I'd deal on ...

It's due to this discrimination in scores why USA had to do away with numbers...I hope RP will also implement a PASS/FAIL type of result in the near future...

One can work as a nurse in various settings; can you just imagine a world if all nurses could only/should only work in the hospital? Hehe, of course the institution where you are applying can demand what kind of experience they'd want. It's usually ...

Personally I don't see any problem on people going up on the degree ladder, especially if they can make it. Why restrict them? Isn't the objective of education to gain knowledge to become more prepared? Graduate school training also have their own pr...

I saw some typographical errors in my post above, however, I can not see the "edit" button. Anyway, yes, look at this: http://www.usbc.org/usbc/election2008/newsitems/obamapromise.htm

Even the UN is powerless. Prudence should be present in the heart of the person, if ever we are to change the world.

I believe the congress(senate and house) are still be the ones who should really push for these proposed changes in the visa availability, if ever they are to favor LEGAL immigrants. The president signs bills into laws, but basically, to a major exte...
