Boston College Direct Master's Entry 2017

Published

Hi all! Is anybody out there who applied to BC's Direct Entry program for fall 2017? The deadline is tomorrow, but I have no idea how their process works from here! I haven't found anything on the website. Best of luck to everyone!

Is anyone else still waiting to hear back?

I couldn't find anywhere cheaper than Butler CC. Their online course starts mid-March..I tried to take the one that starting 2/13 but not enough people signed up for it. Hoping this one actually runs or I'll have to take it at UNE for $1300!

Between Vanderbilt (FNP) and BC (PNP). Leaning toward Vandy though. Any thoughts?

Has anyone taken UNE's pathophysiology course? I'd love to know how difficult it is/ how long the course was (I know it is self-paced but just would love a general idea).

Thank you!!

i took UNE's "physiology" course online and it was very straight forward, so i bet that the pathophys is similar. you can do it as fast as you want. i believe we had 12 weeks, but you can get it all done however fast you need.

Does anyone know if there is a Facebook group for Class of 2019?

I was accepted at Vandy and BC. I'm currently in the first year of the program at BC and am very happy with it. I loved Vandy when I visited, and cost of living is less, but I know Nashville is saturated with NPs and I wasn't really interested in living elsewhere in TN after graduation. Plus, I'm from New England. I'm really happy with this program, but obviously not having enrolled at Vandy I can't REALLY compare them for you. But I'm happy with my decision. And I have buyer's remorse about everything...lol

I remember being in your shoes, so if I can answer anything specific just ask :-)

I know that Boston College does not offer you a BSN. Isn't this a problem when trying to find jobs in the future? As an NP will you make less salary or does it affect the difficulty of finding a job is you don't have a BSN?
