   Just checked CreditKarma, no hard inquiries this year so I am guessing if there is no hard inquiry by now, I'm likely not to get the award this cycle

2. Georgetown University MSN-FNP January 2014 Part time Cohort

   canucks090 replied to davesbride's topic in School Programs

   Sorry, I will clarify those statements in the previous message. Nurses are very much LEADERS in the patient's care, and many times make decisions on treatment based on rapid assessments. My point was not to minimize the role of the RN, who many time...

   canucks090 replied to davesbride's topic in School Programs

   Hi Juliana, Congrats on getting into the program! I will say that there are a lot of opinions about nurses that go into advance practice programs with no nursing experience. I think I can partially speak to this in that I only had one year of nursing...

   Hi davesbride, That decision should be based on how much of your time you will spend every day during the week. Honestly, for me, I am ether studying, writing a paper, and completing a health assessment video (or a combination of these!) on almost ev...

9. Georgetown FNP Fall 2013 Cohort

   canucks090 replied to canucks090's topic in Advanced

   You guys will likely find out soon, it's weird that they are waiting until now to tell you the decision because registration already started like two weeks ago so you may get the remaining openings for classes if you get in. I was told that if it tak...

    I think you may be in the wrong chatroom, since this is one for Georgetown University not Graceland. I hope this makes you less nervous. Good luck!

    Hi Mary, Thanks for the reply. I am choosing Georgetown for a number of reasons. The first is the name recognition and reputation of the University. I think this will help with employment prospects. Also, I like the fact that the weekly class session...
