   Sailrmar I have some questions... I am starting the program in August (acute-care track). Do you recall what month you heard from the financial aid office about student loans? In your experience did students who applied for the federal loans generall...

   Zippy010 replied to katiequinn's topic in Massachusetts

   To current 1st year students: Is lab scheduled on a Monday or Friday? I imagine having three days off every other week would be tremendously helpful... For students that moved to the Worcester area upon acceptance (which I plan to do), can you provi...

   Briang30 thanks for your insights. I am interviewing on Tuesday and taking a tour of the lab afterward. I am very excited about the program and the university's plans for the coming years. Are interviews granted quite liberally or should I feel confi...

   Zippy010 replied to katiequinn's topic in Massachusetts

   Thank you very much, that's very helpful. I have lots of other questions if you have time to address them: Which specialty program are you in? How are you managing your schedule, and do you find it difficult to find a job as an RN in between year 2 a...

   Sailrmar- I would love to know more about the Umass Worcester GEP. I'm not quite sure how to send you a private message here, but if you could initiate the process I would be so grateful! I am deciding between a direct entry master's and accelerated ...

   I have been asked to interview for the Umass Worcester GEP program. JessicaJessica, how did you interview end up going? Can you give me any insight into what I can expect? And was it your understanding that people who were asked to interview were gen...

    Zippy010 replied to ktrna's topic in Massachusetts

    Yes, I applied. Had some trouble with a study abroad transcript, I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Where else did you all apply? Simmons?

    What other schools has everyone applied to? Simmons, Umass Boston, Umass Medical? I totally agree with the frustration around different deadlines - for Curry College you have to apply in March only to wait 3/4 of a year!

    I received an email today that letters would be sent out at the beginning of this week - so January 5 sounds just about right. Regarding financial aid, I had sent in a form with my application. I haven't received an email about options. Good luck ev...

    I'm thinking of attending the information session on January 12th just to refresh some of the information should I be so lucky as to have a decision to make... I went to one last year and it was pretty informative. Has anyone recently trying to acces...
