Columbia SON MDE 2019

Updated:   Published

Hey Everyone!

Just wanted to start this thread for those who are all applying to the Columbia School of Nursing MDE program for 2019 Entry.

I figured we could all share our thoughts/ questions/ concerns here, or just use this to meet some new people ?

My name is Gurdeep, I'm from NY, and I'm a recent Grad from Binghamton University. Looking forward to meeting all of you ?

Jumping in here late this year but I am a current Columbia DNP student (finished MDE last year), feel free to message with any questions!

Another question: do you or if you know a lot of students choose to live on campus? And how's the housing situation?

I don't live on campus and the majority of students I know don't but there are a few. I have heard mixed reviews from the people who live in Bard, some like it and some feel like it is too similar to the dorms they had in undergrad. It is convenient in terms of location and food (they have a meal plan available and serve dinner in Bard each night) though!

When does everyone think decisions will be posted??? Anxiously awaiting lol

I imagine my Columbia MDE decision every time I turned on my laptop lol. Think about Columbia Nursing class of 2020 guys!!

Yep! Seems almost identical to the first one we received. I think it was just a reminder to complete the FAFSA regardless of the govt. shutdown/even though it is past the 1/7 priority deadline.

That mass email they sent out today really re-started my anxiety!
