Johns Hopkins MSN Entry into Nursing Spring 2018

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hello!

I haven't seen any threads yet about the Johns Hopkins accelerated MSN program for Spring of 2018 so I thought I would start one to chat with other hopefuls like myself!

Also, if anyone who has previously been accepted into the program, any and all advice would be greatly appreciated! For now, I have a few questions:

-Does anyone know if all parts of the application are weighed equally or which ones they place the most emphasis on?

- I took the GRE once and I scored in the 82nd percentile for verbal reasoning (score: 159), 93rd percentile for analytical writing (score: 5), and the 55th percentile in quantitative reasoning (score: 154 :no: ) Should I retake it to improve my math score? My fear is that I'll take it again and do worse!

- What is their acceptance rate?

- Any good tips for the personal statements? I'm finding that it's very difficult to articulate why I want to be a nurse without sounding cheesy.

- Where else are y'all applying?

I think that's all for now! I look forward to chatting with everyone and wish you all the best of luck!

Boooooo so I just called them and they said it's going to be the "very end of December", possibly even into "beginning of January"

So I guess, let's not hold our breath...

Nooo! Sad, but hopefully it'll be a nice holiday present the end of next week.

But aren't we at the very end of December hehe :) semantics and impatience on my part, I know.

Oh man, that sucks! But but... it is what it is lol. We will find out when they decide to send those notices, but at least I got a greeting card.

I just got an email--- I GOT IN!!!!

I GOT IN GUYS!!!!!!

New to this thread -- I am very excited to be accepted into Hopkins! Do any of y'all have an opinion on doing a generalist master's instead of a master's that encompasses a NP certification? (if that is your career goal) I fell in love with JHUSON when I visited this summer, but I wish they had an NP program in the master's portion so I wouldn't have to do a post-master's cert.

I just got accepted as well for the Fall 2018 start date! Congrats to everyone accepted, and best of luck to everyone who is hearing back!

I got in also!

Wheeee I'm also in!!!

Lol I guess the person on the phone yesterday was just trying to cover herself in case they didn't get sent out..

I am in as well!

I am starting a forum for Fall 2018 - since this one says Spring 2018! https://allnurses.com/general-nursing-student/johns-hopkins-msn-1143164.html#post9677834 Here is the link. Congrats to everyone :)
