Vanderbilt Grad Entry 2013 - Page 10

@kms I live in the middle Tennessee area. No moving for me but I will leave my employment. Also I have heard 50k is a reasonable expectation of cost.

Kms673I applied for FNP. What about everyone else?

That is cool that you already live nearby. I will definitely be looking to you for advice on places to live if I am accepted.

As far as the price tag, I can see why people are scared. It is a very personal decision to take on that kind of debt, and depends on current loan debt and how much you will gain in yearly salary. I previously looked at other grad programs (like MPH for example), and the degrees were only going to make me 3K-10K more than what I was making now. So for me, that was not a good investment.

I'm a little confused regarding interviews. I remember them mentioning they do for certain specialities before hitting the submit button, but cannot find any more information. Are there no interviews?

From my understanding only psych requires an interview. I'll be visiting the the school on Tuesday though and can confirm that for you. If anyone else has any questions they would like to be answered, let me know and I'll ask when I go!

Thanks so much, and have a great trip!!!!

the popular specialties like FNP and NMW conduct over the phone interviews

I'm a pre-specialty NMW student and I had an over the phone interview before hearing back about a decision

amandy45,

When did you have the phone interview in relation to hearing about your decision?

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to wish everyone good luck as you interview(for those who applied in specialties that require interviews) and also let you all know that I am here to help answer questions with amandy45 about pre-specialty year!
