Johns Hopkins MSN Entry into Nursing Spring 2018

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!

It is killing me! which one is first ( phone call or email)?

Hi Yahdji! From what I have read regarding previous years, it is an email first!

I keep checking my email 30 times a day even though I know the decisions aren't supposed to be release until September 1st-ish, lol. If anyone hears back early, please post on here!

Me too me too! I am hopeful that decisions will be sent out very soon! Has anyone reached out to them to see if decisions will still be released next week? WOW next Friday is September 1...

who gets the email? all applicants ( accepted and rejected).

Hi Yahdji, only those offered admission to the program will receive an email... rejection letters are sent via postal mail.

Hello!

I heard that letters will be sent out in the next few weeks, regardless of acceptance/rejection. Hoping that we hear back soon!

Hi msnentry, previous cohorts have heard of their acceptance via email before letters are received! So hope we find out soon :)

I talked to jhu today and they told me decision would be going out early/mid September. So soon!

Thanks for the update! I have been counting down the days since submitting my application in June! Sarah44, do you know if that deadline is for the decisions regarding the early priory deadline of July? Or all decisions?

Idk about early decision. She told me that and I did not apply until the August 15th deadline

Thanks! Good to know! Well best of luck! I am excited to see when everyone starts to receive their acceptance :)
