   I'm pretty sure that $55,000 is including what they think you will need to live, including housing, etc. The estimated tuition was still around 39,000 in state.

   I applied to the midwifery program at OHSU three times before I got in. The first two times, I called and spoke to admissions and they were happy to tell me where I was weak.

4. OHSU Acc Bacc to Masters 2012

   areawoman replied to Ms. Bastet's topic in Post Graduate

   I was also told that it is much easier to get in to the midwifery program if you already have your BSN. In fact, when I asked about it before I applied last fall, I was told that the previous year, they had more than 100 applicants for the ABSN to Mi...

   areawoman replied to areawoman's topic in Post Graduate

   Well, a friend of mine got her acceptance to the OHSU grad-entry midwifery program yesterday, and I didn't get anything yesterday or today, so I suppose that means I'm probably out. Has anyone else heard? I haven't yet heard back from Seattle Univers...

   areawoman replied to Nadia24's topic in Ohio

   I actually only completed three quarters at OSU (we had to move out of state, so I'm in the midst of re-applying to programs here). However, even with two young kids, the schedule was difficult but manageable. Depending on when we scheduled (do it th...

10. Graduate School Interviews -- Help!

    areawoman posted a topic in Post Graduate

    A couple of questions about graduate school interviews... 1. Obviously you want to look nice and put together, but is this a suit-and-tie kind of thing or a slacks-and-a-sweater kind of thing? Does it matter the area of the country? I live in Portlan...

    areawoman replied to Brielle_88's topic in Post Graduate

    I have never come across any nursing program that didn't have prerequisites. Every accelerated BSN/grad-entry MSN program has the same standard prerequisites (microbiology, A&P) and some have additional ones (stats, chem, nutrition, growth and de...
