Did you guys get the information about their scholarship if you sign a contract with the Washington HOspital? I wonder if you can still receive the scholarship if you continue on your MSN.... I am excited to interivew on Monday.. should be interesting... Did you guys apply anywhere else?

Spygirl19, thank you so much for your words of wisom and encouragment. You make me feel much more relaxed about my interview on Thursday.

Msnkiss, how did it go? I signed up for the hospital tour for the morning of my interview also, so if you went, what exactly is all of that about? How long is the contract? Did you find out about the possibility of it mixed with the MSN program? I guess I could just wait a few days and find out for myself, but since I am still pretty nervous about it, I'm going to ask.

Also, how did you get to the college the day of your interview? I will be staying with some friends outside of DC about 25 minutes away, and I know how traffic is in that area. I can either drive or take the subway and then the shuttle. I'm just worried that the shuttle will be difficult to find at the Rossyln station or something having never been to Georgetown before. Also, how far is the walk from the shuttle or the parking lot to St. Mary's hall where we have to meet?

Sorry for all the questions, just trying to get myself straight and organized for Thursday.

Just a tip for everyone who hasn't gone to their interview yet, if you are interested in the scholarship program at WHC, make sure you go to the "optional information session." There is an application process for it, but the staff really tries to get to know everyone during this session and takes notes on the candidates, so it's a good place to make an impression. The staff was really nice, and it was very laid back (and they had a great spread for breakfast too), but try to get go to the session if you have the ability. Technically, I'm giving advice to the "enemy" here since you all are my competition, but I like to make sure that everyone goes in as informed as possible so that everyone has equal opportunity. Good luck to everyone too, and hopefully I'll see some of you at Georgetown in August.

Congratulation to all of you who have been accepted into the accelerated program for this fall of 2008. If any of you are interested in buying your books used and saving some money, I am selling most of my books for the first semester courses: Pathophysiology, Pharmacology, Nutrition, and Health Care Delivery. I am selling the books at 10% below the price the bookstore on campus sells them for. Let me know if you are interested. You can reach me at [email protected]. My name is Paul by way. Once again, congrats to all of you, and I look forward to meeting you in a few months!
