Hi Everyone. Sorry about the late response and thank you for all the advice!
So, here is what ended up happening. When I finished my degree at WGU, my pharmacology classes were acceptable for my program at The University of South Alabama. I took...
I am a new graduate FNP in California with 6 years of RN critical care experience. I earned my BSN and MSN-ED from Western Governors, and then went on to complete a Post-Master's FNP program at The University of South Alabama, which accepted my 3p wi...
I'm looking for anywhere that I can take a class if I have to. This sucks, it's neverending .... I seriously could have gone to med school for less effort. At least I would have had more support. This is such bs, they need to standardize APRN educati...
I'm going to try to come to a resolution with the school first.
Luckily, I have emails detailing all of this from when I originally enrolled. What an awful headache and disappointment.
I'm thinking of doing the same thing in Los Angeles. I have two years NICU but only want to do 2 shifts per week since I also have an unrelated home business. I'm looking into agencies right now too, so maybe we can compare information!
Great, thanks for the reply. Yup, I have 2.5 years of experience in NICU and Mother/Baby. I was thinking of traveling nursing up there at first since I don't really know much about the area. Would you have any recommendations for good places to work?...

Thanks for responding, I appreciate the support. I still love my little patients, but I'm looking into other options right now. I truly love taking care of the little ones, but I don't like the high-stress level of taking care of the really sick ones...
I tried to figure out how to message you, but I don't have that feature. Thank you so much for your reply. Sorry for the late response, I've been working. We are headed out to Santa Fe for a vacation, so I was thinking of doing some research while ...
Thinking of leaving SoCal for a quieter life and less people. A non-nursing friend moved to New Mexico and loves it, so we are going to visit and check it out. I'm a NICU nurse with two years of experience in high acuity, inner city hospitals. I have...
I graduated in 2015 with my ADN, earned my BSN a year later and am currently about to enter WGU's MSN Education program. I've been working in NICU for a year an a half, and Mother/Baby before that. My goal is to become an FNP. I chose to return to WG...
Thank you so much for your response, I really appreciate it. I'm so glad to hear that this route worked for you, I find it very encouraging. May I ask you where you did your FNP? I'm currently working in NICU, but I'm finding the stress of critical ...
New Grad in Los Angeles with an ADN and a Bachelor's in an unrelated subject here. I just graduated in December, and want to continue asap with my education. I've also noticed that the job market here is rough for ADNs, so I'm trying to start a prog...
