Congrats everyone! Frontier Bound is amazing! Enjoy!

Yes, the roll call is for current students. We have to check in to each course within the first 2 days of each term.

Hi everyone! I'm a current Frontier student and thought I'd hop in and say hi. Don't stress--I remember when I was accepted that we didn't find out until exactly 6 weeks before Frontier Bound. Hang...

Yes, Frontier has a shuttle from the Lexington airport.

I'm also a Frontier student and can't speak highly enough about it! As a pp stated, the history and tradition are unmatched. You truly feel like you are joining a family when you come to Frontier. I...

Hi All! It's been a quiet thread lately, so I thought I'd bump us up to the top again! How is everyone doing? I'm still working on my MS in nursing (Nurse-Midwifery), but have definitely found...

I work for Ohio Health, and I'm pretty sure that the starting hourly rate is $23.21 (that could be off by a few cents, but that's pretty close). Shift differential is $4.75 and weekend differential...

Hi Everyone! I have been reading this thread with interest and thought I'd drop in and say hello. I'm currently an MSN student working to become a CNM/WHNP. I also work part-time as an L&D nurse....

So far in my experience working in L&D, those restrictions are really only applied to women who are receiving interventions in their labor (or having an issue with fetal heart tones). A healthy woman...

Now THAT is very true. I find myself in the minority a lot of the time and do have moments where I am appalled/shocked/stunned/saddened at some of the routines on a L&D unit. I try to extrapolate...

I agree with you and believe that everyone who becomes a CNM with some sort of life-experience (which we all have!) brings something valuable to the table. However, I do have to say that...

I'm very excited for you! I can't directly speak to the demand for male CNM's, but I can put you in touch with someone who might offer perspective? Ohio State's Nurse-Midwifery program is chaired...

You will definitely need to refer back to statistics while in grad school. You'll take a research course and a theory course at the minimum, and I've used my stats in a few other graduate level...

Are you planning to apply to a graduate entry program (an MS in nursing with a specialization in midwifery for non-nurses with a BA or BS in a non-nursing field), or get your RN and then apply to a...

I don't have specific experience with Vanderbilt's program, but I do know that the ACNM (American College of Nurse-Midwives), which is the accrediting body for CNM programs is very strict regarding...

Yes, you can be admitted with less than a 3.0, but you must maintain a 3.0 to stay in school.

Just as an FYI--the 3.0 requirement is standard minimum grade for all graduate schools (including Frontier).

I am a Frontier CNEP student. I know that there is a woman in my class who is a practicing FNP. She said that the transition into the program was seemless and I believe it is taking her less than 2...

I second that! I am 37 and have just completed my first year of the program! I have one child and work part-time. I am a part-time student in the program and find it manageable. Not easy, but...

CNEP at Frontier stands for "Community Based Nurse-Midwifery Education Program". It is the nurse-midwifery track at Frontier and one of the three tracks available there (they also offer FNP and...

I am a student at Frontier, and while they don't allow you to do a "dual" degree, I'm told it is a pretty seamless transition for nurse-midwifery students to complete the WHNP program. I am told...

I am a part-time Frontier student, work 12 or 24 hours per week on night shift and am a stay-at-home Mom to a 2.5 year old. I'd say it CAN be done, with some concessions. You will have to decide...

:chuckle :chuckle Not trying to be disrespectful to the earlier poster, but this is too funny to pass up!

My only advice is to relax, read some books for fun and take a vacation. Once school starts, you won't be doing any more pleasure reading and the stress level goes up a bit. You can still take...

Congrats everyone that has been accepted! Welcome to the Frontier family! It's a great place to be and the one thing they will keep saying to you (and I believe it to be true!), is that no one comes...
