Awesome stats!!!

My undergrad is in Biology and I am currently obtaining my MPH degree in Epidemiology! Long term plan is to be a nurse scientist or at least conduct some type of research to advance the field of nursing while working with patients as a front-line nurse.

Currently, I live in NC. I am excited to find out but I wish they provided a response earlier! It will take a long time, but it is worth the wait for this program! :) Did you apply to any other schools?

I wonder if anyone else is applying. I have heard from my research that this program is very competitive and a lot of people are applying.

That's so cool!! Epidemiology is such a fascinating field! :) I love research too! How are you liking that MPH program?

I know what you mean about the wait time. I wish we'd know sooner :o, haha. I agree it is totally worth the wait, though.

I did apply to other schools; most are located closer to my home state/in New England. Have you applied to other schools as well? :)

I, too, have heard that this is a competitive program.

Yeah I applied to a bunch! I have one acceptance so far and one wait list! However, I am looking for some funding to pay for the tuition because I will not be able to afford to pay for any of the schools. However, I really want to be nurse, so I am thinking if my local community college accepts me I may get an ADN degree first. Then, pursue an RN to BSN degree after I start working as an RN. Otherwise, I do not know if I can afford these expensive schools. It truly sucks, but it is what it is.

Congratulations on getting into a program!! :) That's exciting news!

I 100% relate. It's a really tough position financially. I already have boat-loads of debt, lol. :( But, I am sure it will all get sorted out, one way or another! I will be rooting for you! :) I think a lot of students are taking the community college path from what I am seeing.

Has any one heard back yet, or just received any email in general. Ive also applied to the Health equity academy, has anyone received any email about interviews for this?

Im very nervous and hoping to hear something soon.

I haven't heard anything as well! Their website says we will here back from them with final decisions mid to late March!

I think last people heard back during the first week of April? That seems like it is very late! Anyone hear anything differently?
