I'm from Vermont and my interview is today(Thursday) at noon. I did speak with her at length last year while I was still in school, so I imagine it will go about the same. Probably it's the same as what we had to write about: Why midwifery, what do you want to do with your degree blah, blah. You already have a master's so at least you know the amount of work we have ahead of us!! I can only imagine........

So I just had my interview!!! It was nerve wracking, but she was talking to me like I was already in.

Why nurse midwifery?

What are your strong and weak points as a nurse?

How do you react in a stressful situation as a nurse?

Why frontier?

Pretty straightforward and Susan's really nice!

Good luck to you all and I hope to meet you in Hyden!

Hi!

I had my interview today, and you were right, Suzan is really nice! I felt very comfortable talking with her. I can't wait to find out if I am accepted...she said it would take a maximum of 2 weeks after all my materials are in...so hopefullly I'll know by mid-April or sooner! It woudl be fun to already "know" someone before going there. Keep us all posted!

Cheers

I have not seen you post for awhile. Best of luck to you. Good to see you back again!

I am just curious...I get these little pangs sometimes about the CNM thing. How old is too old to start? I am 41 nowand doing my Master's as Perinatal CNS/Educator. I like education, but I really do like clinical situations. I never mind helping on the unit, etc.It will probably take me about 4 years to finish my program. Right now, I think I may go into academia, like a community college when I am done w/ my MSN and moonlight as staff. I just started in staff development as a unit educator, so I am getting my feet wet. Are there any 45 or 50 year olds going to Frontier? Would someone want to hire me if I did decide to get my CNM at that age?

FYI, I finished my CNM program when I was 47. Worked as an L&D RN, WHNP, BSN instructor, etc. trying to find my niche in life. You are never too old!

Thanks for the encouragement. I went for education because I love OB and like teaching and learning. I really enjoy patient care too -A LOT, so I am still iffy about what exactly I will be when I "grow up."
