   rose_marie posted a topic in General Nursing

   I am just finishing up the first quarter in my ABSN program and so excited about everything I'm learning! However, I find myself in a rather wonderful predicament...I have no idea what kind of nursing I want to do! It seems like every week I fall in ...

2. OHSU's Accelerated BSN program 2012

   rose_marie replied to smallfry2's topic in Oregon

   It's official! I just sent in my deposit for the OHSU Accelerated Bachelor's Program and will be packing up for Portland soon! A few of the other schools I was considering had some kind of online forum on which accepted students could chat and con...

3. Johns Hopkins University BSN/MSN Fall 2011

   rose_marie replied to jngnurse's topic in Post Graduate

   Other information from the chat that might be worth mentioning: --They said that it's VERY strongly recommended for students to have a car in order to get to clinical sites (some could potentially be in DC). Although a car is (almost absolutely) nece...

   rose_marie replied to jngnurse's topic in Post Graduate

   Unfortunately, they were somewhat vague regarding a timeline for the MSN decisions. Basically it was a "you'll know when we know" response the question of when we might be notified. Hopefully soon though! I don't know how much longer I can wait!

   rose_marie replied to jngnurse's topic in Post Graduate

   Hi Y'all! I am really hoping to make it to the Traditional Admitted Students Day on the 8th. I'm coming from the West Coast and as I look down the road at a gazillion dollars in tuition debt I'm trying to make the trip as economical as possible. :) ...

6. Columbia University ETP 2011

   rose_marie replied to PacoUSA's topic in New York

   I should also mention that our student ambassador was amazing--my decision against Columbia had nothing to do with her. I really enjoyed talking with her and found her honest and reflective feedback helpful and constructive!

   rose_marie replied to PacoUSA's topic in New York

   With regard the the equipment/uniforms--our student ambassador said that you definitely need to tuning forks. She purchased the second tier package but now wishes she had gotten the first tier (the Cardiology III is a much better stethoscope and she ...

   rose_marie replied to jngnurse's topic in Post Graduate

   Maybe I'm just cynical, maybe I don't want Hopkins to lose it's luster but... Does anyone else find it odd that Disappointed had horrible yet vague things to say about a program I've heard nothing but good things about, joined the same say he/she pos...

   rose_marie replied to williamhart1984's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Yes, please Pebblesatl! I'm still waiting to hear about financial aid from schools so I still don't know if I'll be attending but I've put down my deposit for the Emory ABSN/MSN. Another thread sounds like a great idea!

    rose_marie replied to jngnurse's topic in Post Graduate

    I just got a phone call regarding my acceptance into the Traditional Second Degree BSN! They said the MSN decision might come next week. JHSON is so expensive so it will definitely come down to Financial Aid, but I'm just going to hold a good thought...

    rose_marie replied to jngnurse's topic in Post Graduate

    When I interviewed for the Traditional BSN/MSN in January, Megan said we could expect a decision for the BSN portion by Feb 15. So far it seems like only the Accelerated folks have been receiving phone calls. I've been making myself crazy checking my...

    rose_marie replied to jngnurse's topic in Post Graduate

    Good morning, AllNurses! I am a Traditional BSN/MSN applicant who, like many of you, has been compulsively stalking the mailbox waiting for an envelope from Hopkins. I will be in class today during the chat so I won't be able to participate. With s...

    Thank you so much! I'm looking forward to visiting the school, but I'm glad I didn't buy a plane ticket to Atlanta for that!

    And I thought it was stressful trying to put all my applications together--the waiting is so much worse! Wishing everyone the best! :)
