JHU MSN entry Into Nursing practice Spring 2019

[amc510, MSN, RN]

I didn't see a thread already. Is anyone applying for Spring 2019?

[KMD51]

I am! Are you going to the information session this weekend?

[amc510, MSN, RN]

I am! Are you going to the information session this weekend?

No, I wish I could! I live in Washington state, so it's not feasible :). Let me know how it goes!

[amc510, MSN, RN]

@KMD51 Did you go?

[Danni_Elle]

I am applying for the Spring 2019 too!

[amc510, MSN, RN]

Have you submitted your application? I submitted on Monday. I wonder when we will hear?

[Danni_Elle]

No I haven't submitted it, I'm still working on my essay on NursingCas. Did you take the GRE?

[amc510, MSN, RN]

No, I didn't take the GRE. I am hoping that doesn't hurt my chances! I have a decent GPA (last 60/90 credits is pretty high), so I am banking on that balancing my application out without the GRE. Did you? Are you applying to other schools?

[Danni_Elle]

No I didn't take the GRE either.

I'm from San Diego, and I applied at Azusa Pacific University (Entry-MSN), Mount Saint Mary's University (ABSN), and Concordia University Irvine (ABSN). Sadly, I didn't get into APU. Currently waiting on MSMU and CUI--concurrently, applying for JHU & Western Health University Health Sciences for Entry-MSN.

What about you?

[amc510, MSN, RN]

I am in the Seattle area. I looked at Western Health University as well!

I am currently only applying to JHU, but I have a list of others that I'm interested in. If I don't get in, I will also apply at University of Virginia (direct entry MSN), and Seattle University (entry level DNP), and then go from there.

I had considered ABSN programs, but I am tapped out on undergrad financial aid, so I have decided to stick with masters level programs.

[Danni_Elle]

Nice! Try Azusa Pacific University, you get your BSN and your Master's! Ou, I'd like to check out Seattle University. There's such thing as an E-DNP?! That's awesome! & Yea, I feel you. I have undergrad loans from CSUSM

[amc510, MSN, RN]

I looked at Azusa as well! I have pretty much researched every option, with the exception of schools in states that I won't be able to live in (I have a child on medical cannabis). Yes, check out Seattle U! It's a 4 year program, and you have to specialize in one of a few areas, but it's a great program. If I apply there, it will be for the Midwifery focus! (I don't think I will go that route if I just become an RN/MSN).
