Columbia MDE 2022

Published

I know the application hasn't opened yet, but wondering if there was anyone else thinking of applying to Columbia MDE/DNP programs for June 2022 entry?

Sure! 

So the first time I didn't know what to expect, I attended an open house in about a month or so before the applications were due and hadn't done any of the prerequisites, I was encouraged to apply despite that so I did. By the time the application was due, I had only completed 1 course. 

This time around, I completed all my prerequisites and did some volunteer work.

I have a BS in Forensic Psychology, MS in Human Services, 3.9 GPA. 

When you applied the second time, what was different if you don't mind me asking?

The 2nd time I hadn't done any volunteer work and was missing Statistics. I was also kind of bitter about 2020 decision and I think that showed during my video essay because I mentioned it.

Wow, it seemed like you had an excellent shot from applying the first time!

Thanks, we'll see what happens this time around. I was very close to attending NYU but wanted to take my chance with CUSON one more time.

Good for you for not giving up, hopefully that shows through to them! Best of luck, you've got this!

I got into the MDE part, but not the DNP part -- is anyone in the same boat, and if so, what are your thoughts? I'm feeling really conflicted... 

I GOT ACCEPTED!?
