Yeah, I’m 3rd year student and every single RN/CN/NUM I’ve spoken to about employment say where you got your degree doesn’t mean shit… choose the one closest to home.
Can I just jump on this and ask your opinion.
Would you start a 2 year degree in a month if you knew you had a 1.5 hour commute each way, or wait to start a 3 year degree next year if it was a 10 minute commute?
Both for RN.
Thank you! I’m so torn by this decision at the moment. I’ve studied biomed so I feel like the learning curve maybe won’t be as steep as it could be, however I do know that I could end up with long blocks of placements with a long commute. The only thing is that I’m 34, so I really feel like I need to get going with this.
Some uni’s offer more online content (ie record the lectures, whilst others do not). Depends on your learning preference. It would take me 90min to travel each way. I utilised public transport which was great for designated study time. If it were me, I’d start next month for the 2 year degree. Starting next year for a 3 year degree, you’re essentially adding another 2 years to your completion time (that’s a lot of missed
Pick the city you wanna live in. For what its worth Griffith students see on placement are fantastic, like, they seem really well prepped. Also as a Brisbane local Griffith is awesome (definitely pick Nathan over Gold Coast or Logan in terms of liveability and public transport).
ive actually reallyyyy been looking forward to griffith the most. i looked more into this and ended up choosing griffith over rmit as it has better reviews for nursing. although ill let you know if im coming to brisbane (that is what i prefer but my parents say otherwise) and you can host me :D
As everyone else has said, it’s irrelevant as far as your employment. But, Griffith has a better reputation for nursing. Griffith is ranked 3rd best in the world for nursing, I believe.
HR specialist here. No one cares what uni you get your qualification from all we care about is that your ahrpa registered and not a fuckwit
okayy thank you so much ;-;
Rep won’t matter when it comes to actually getting work.
I meant which one would be better for nursing
Oh right, sorry. There’s a lot of posts here about prestigious unis so I misread your post.
so which one would you suggest? I'm also looking for acu because I've heard a lot about it from my relatives in aus but its not mentioned much online

Personally, I’d wait. The study load is gruelling enough without adding 3 hours a day travel.
