Air Force Reserves, Nursing, Scholarships, And College Loans?

Posted on 11/13/2009 by nursing| 4 Comments

Two years from now I plan to be qualified to enlist in the US Air Force Reserves as a RN. I want to do this to have money coming in while I do my RN to BSN. I also have about a 7K student loan that I would love to get off my back. Will I be able to get a nursing scholarship from the Air Force, have them take care of my student loan, by just joing the Reserves for now? I plan to enlist full time when I complete my BSN! Also.. if I am in school and I want to enlist in the Air Force, will they put off me going to basic until I atleast finish my associates? My ASVAB score expires this coming up summer(I made an 89) and I don’t want to put it to waste. I hope my questions are clear! Thanks in advance.

Going To College And My Financial Aid Covers Tuition But Barely…?

Posted on 10/23/2009 by nursing| 1 Comment

Books will be $800 and my nursing scrub uniform tops $80…then I have to purchase pants from where ever. I do not have this money! Where can I get it? Are there additional grants and such I can apply for? I am a married mom of 2 and will most likely be quitting my job 2 months into schooling (when our lease is up and we can move into cheaper housing). My husband and I have bad credit so no personal loans for us. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

19, Having A Baby This Fall, And Wanting To Go Back To College To Get My Rn?

Posted on 09/08/2009 by nursing| 7 Comments

Getting pregnant so young was a huge shock to me & my boyfriend – it was very unplanned. I have planned on going to college to get my RN for years and already went to tech school to get my PCT (patient care technician) My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years and we are very happy about the birth of our little baby girl this October (once we got over the shock!) Hes a great guy, hes an HVAC apprentice & makes very good money for his age.
Going back to school stresses me out just thinking about it. Its going to be so hard, and I dont want to miss out on my baby girl growing up because I’m always gone at school & work. Should I try to go back sooner or later? Any young moms out there have any words of advice about managing school, work, and being a good mommy?
Once I found I was pregnant everyone in my family immediately went on “her life is over” drive & said how I would never get my career and that my life would be a struggle. I want to prove them wrong – BUT HOW! :(

I’m in my first year of college to become an RN, but I work at hospital now as a pharmacy technician and I am really interested in becoming an Anesthesiologist. After four years of nursing school would I be able to get into med school?
Also if there is anyone out there who is an Anesthesiologist, do you enjoy your job?

Questions About Transfering To A Different College.?

Posted on 08/28/2009 by nursing| 4 Comments

I am currently attending Stony Brook University. My intended major is Pharmacology and I plan on transfering to these following schools…
Boston University
Northeastern University
Villanova University
SUNY Buffalo
Rutgers-College of Pharmacy
My GPA for the end of the first year should be around a 3.0. Do colleges your transfer look at your high school transcripts? If they do I had about an 86 GPA and recieved a 1220 on Crit Reading and math. What kind of shot do you think I have at those schools??
Id really like to know…any thoughts would be very much appreciated…I just want to know what kind of chane I have or should i shoot lower. Money is not a problem by the way.

What College Fits Me?

Posted on 08/27/2009 by nursing| 1 Comment

Okay, so here is my info….
I go to the top high school in America, so i think schools take that into account when they look at your grades. They understand how hard a’s are to pull of there. Also, all classes are taught at high honors level, and grades aren’t weighed.
GPA- 3.85
SAT- my schools average is a 2204, so lets say i’ll get that
Extra currics
Class Secretary
Fencing
Amnesty International
HOSA (A Medical Club)
and possibly track
Classes
Math- Alg 2-Calc
Science- Chem-2 years, Bio-1 year, Physics-2 years, Medical Science (Epidemiology, Pharmacology, and Medical Research)- 1 year, Anatomy and Physiology-1 year, Bioethics- 1 trimester, zoology- 1 trimester. AP Chem-1 year
Language- 4 years of latin
History- American Hist- 1 year, World Hist- 1 year, IB History- 2 year long course
Lit- American Lit- 1 year, World Lit- 1 year, IB Lit- 2 year long course
Technology- 2 years
Art- 1 year (3 trimesters)
If you haven’t noticed, my curriculum revolves around the medical field, because within my high school, I am in The Academy for Medical Science Technology.
I want to go pre-med, and was wondering which colleges would be good to apply to. Thanks.
Money and distance are not issues
