  1. Boston College Direct Master's Entry 2017

    Oh no, you can go anywhere you like. I just meant that for my first job, it's likely I would be looking at places where I made connections during my schooling. So if I went to Vanderbilt, that would mean Nashville. But of course, you could move anywh...
  2. Boston College Direct Master's Entry 2017

    I was accepted at Vandy and BC. I'm currently in the first year of the program at BC and am very happy with it. I loved Vandy when I visited, and cost of living is less, but I know Nashville is saturated with NPs and I wasn't really interested in liv...
  3. Boston College Direct Master's Entry 2017

    Most do get jobs as FNPs right away if that makes you feel better :) Some people choose residencies, I'm not sure how hard they are to come by as I haven't begun looking yet, but I won't freak out if that doesn't end up being the route I choose. I'm ...
  4. Boston College Direct Master's Entry 2017

    Hi all, I'm currently in the master's entry program at BC, first year. I hear your concerns about it being fast, and it is, but I decided to just dedicate my life to this for the short term and be done sooner. The philosophy is not that you will grad...
  5. Am I too old to start this?

    In my first semester now at 44! I'm old enough to be the mom to most of my cohort, but it doesn't feel that way. And I'm not the oldest either. It took me 2 1/2 years to take my pre-reqs one at a time while I worked full time, then I quit my job and ...
  6. NP or PA? My great dilemma...

    Vanderbilt has an emergency specialty as well, I'd look into it :-)

  8. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    I don't remember if they said how competitive it is. They did say it was combined GPA & GRE though, not GPA alone. For the first year anyway. 2nd year would be the 4.0s I guess. But who knows what might have changed.

    They told us at the open house in October, but see Ianima's comment below, looks like they did away with the essays.
  10. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    Hi, I just checked my notes because I remember they talked about them at the Oct open house. There are three, given to students with the highest GPA and GRE. One pre-specialty, one direct-entry and I apologize, I missed the last one (there's a ? in m...

    You won't wait until mid-March if you made the priority deadline. That should just be if you missed that deadline. Good luck to all, whenever you applied! í ½í¹‚
  12. Boston College Master's Direct Entry 2016

    Got it and found you on Facebook! Thanks and congrats to you too!!! And you're already in Brookline, so lucky, that's where I'm looking (I lived in Dedham for a while, too bad I'm not still there...lol). Let me know if you hear of something affordabl...
  13. Boston College Master's Direct Entry 2016

    Here we are! I was just thinking I needed to look for this group, thanks to whoever started it! So I'm in for FNP, woohoo! And also waitlisted at Vanderbilt. But I'm from New England, so I'm thinking BC is gonna be it for me! Congratulations to every...
  14. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    Just heard from the school I thought was going to be last (they said mid to late February). Now Vanderbilt is my last holdout. Come on Vandy!!!! I hate waiting. :-)
  15. Yale GEPN 2016

    No go for me too, ah well. Good luck to everyone!
