Nursing Students School Programs

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 ?

Oh I see thank you!! Do u know if they have in-house application that goes to DNP or do you have to apply again!

They have an in house application that only takes your current MDE coursework into consideration. You can also do a post-masters FNP at another institution in about 12 months if you don't want to do the CU DNP (34 months and 160K) in addition to the MDE.

Hi all, I also got accepted to the MDE program today! Super excited! My letter mentioned nothing about scholarships though, anyone else have an acceptance that does not mention that either?

Got in for psych! Anyone only get the MDE/DNP seamless? I didn't get the MDE Scholarship. ☹️

Does anyone know if Columbia has any other scholarships that we can apply for?

Same here, I only got the MDE/DNP seamless not the MDE one.

That is the same for me as well. Hopefully we get some need based financial aid

Hi everyone! I'm a long time lurker and am so thankful for this thread. I was accepted and received a merit scholarship! Congratulations to everyone who was admitted today. I hope everyone else on this thread is admitted as well.

Hi all,

I had applied to the MDE program and got in. But the letter does not mention anything about the scholarship. Does it mean I did not get it.

Also, there are more than 15 classes in one semester. Do you think it’s doable :-)

Thanks!

Yes, it's quite a lot of credits for a semester. That's why it's an accelerated instead of an unaccelerated which might take 2 years instead of 1, like the one at JHU.

Accepted into MDE/FNP!! So excited Congrats to all
