ECU Alternative Entry MSN Program - Fall 2013

U.S.A. North Carolina

Published

Hi!

I was wondering if anyone was going to apply to ECU's Alt Entry MSN program this Fall for a Fall 2013 start!

I originally was going to apply to Duke's program, but after a lot of research and deciding, I came to the conclusion that I couldn't justify $100,000 in loans with about $87,000 in private loans. I would imagine it would be an awesome experience and all, but I don't want to put myself in such a position with debt!

I am returning to ECU this Fall to take my pre-requisites. I graduated from ECU last July with a BA in German and a minor in Art History, but I've decided to go back and become a RN, so I can become a CDE. It sounds like the Clinical Nurse Specialist concentration is the best for me.

I know the application due date is kinda far away (December 1) but it would be nice to chat it up with others that are applying!

Specializes in Emergency Services.

Haven't heard anything yet :/

Sorry I have not responded in a while. I started teaching again this semester and got busy with meetings and orientations. Interview was simple and what you would expect in a normal work/school interview. Nothing out of the ordinary! :)

steve- did you get your interview?

No, I haven't heard a thing. They said it would be likely in mid February if I heard anything. The only thing that I have heard is that they lost a few spots from the previous year and the same things that they looked for last year are also in effect. This makes me a little angry because I was told that they exclusively closed it off to only in state NC residents for the first time ever last year. Being from out of state, that would have been good information to know.

Kjohnson,

That's great!! I'm waiting to hear as well. I am assuming you are going to accept!?!?

Yes, I will be accepting! I hope you get yours soon! I live in greenville, so I'm sure that's why the letter came in the mail so quickly.
