   midwifetobe85 replied to BrittanyNicole90's topic in CNM

   Hmm, very interesting trauerweidchen, thanks for sharing! I'm brand new to the program and so can't really comment on those specific issues but personally have been very impressed so far. Although I think you're right that no program is going to be p...

   midwifetobe85 replied to BrittanyNicole90's topic in CNM

   Hi there! So I wanted to share some info about OHSU. I've recently spoken to two people who told me it was not a good program- one graduate of the midwifery program and the other graduate of their accelerated nursing program who chose not to do the m...

4. Has anyone ever NOT been accepted to frontier?

   midwifetobe85 replied to SnowboardRN's topic in CNM

   uhg. I'm so sorry. That really sucks. I think that's incredibly unfair. (For you too, DidiRN). I don't understand the concept. I thought it was cumulative gpa for last degree. Why are they factoring grades from your ADN degree into this rn-bsn degree...

7. Certified Nurse Midwives who do home births???

   midwifetobe85 replied to michellelizabeth's topic in CNM

   Hi Michellelizabeth! I completely agree with LilyRoseRN and queenanneslace. It really depends on the state. I'm a newly admitted student midwife at Frontier Nursing U (I start in July). It's a highly esteemed distance program, definitely worth lookin...

   midwifetobe85 replied to Mary C's topic in CNM

   Hi arayRN, yea unfortunately financial aid doesn't become available until a few weeks into the first semester (which generally starts a month of so after Frontier Bound). Maybe start saving now? The $575 covers everything - room and board. If I under...

9. Looking to Volunteer with a CNM

   midwifetobe85 replied to kalah93's topic in CNM

   Hi Kalah! I don't know about midwives in that area but I would recommend just googling it and calling around. Midwives tend to be enthusiastic teachers, very willing to let an aspiring midwife shadow/volunteer. If you're interested in out of hospital...

    midwifetobe85 replied to Mary C's topic in CNM

    Hi arayRN, I went directly through school and did not work as a nurse (5 years doula/CBE experience) and therefore used nursing instructors for all 3 refs. Two were clinical instructors who could comment on my clinical performance and one was a nurse...

15. How long should I expect prereqs to take?

    midwifetobe85 replied to biggolp's topic in CNM

    Also, I only applied to Binghamton. It was a last minute decision and technically the deadline had passed. I probably would've applied to others had it not been so last minute. So i cant comment on what other schools accept online courses which is wh...
