[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess, I was very lucky - as an immigrant from Europe, I went to community college first ( had to pay 3x more because I wasn't eligible for in-state tuition), I accumulated about 120 credits. Then I transferred to private university for nursing school ( I finished with an associate degree just to get RN License) for 2 years. I worked, then went part-time to public university to finish BSN degree in Nursing. I make over 100K gross as a staff nurse and have a government job. My parents never paid a dime for my school- heck, they still live in Europe. [b]I just don't get why parents feel obligated to pay for colleges for kids here. Kids should have figure it out how to navigate their lives after high school.[/b] [/quote]

No one hires community college RNs anymore. You were lucky, when did you graduate?[/quote]

Wow that's weird, I guess Johns Hopkins didn't get the memo.  My DIL is a community college RN who started there in Baltimore about 6 months ago.  She's two years out from her community college nursing degree.[/quote]

Lol!  Most nurse you see in hospitals went to community college programs. Like, the VAST majority.[/quote]
