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 ) 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!
Hi guys, I'm in too :) Waiting to hear back from a couple of other schools but Hopkins was my first choice. Congrats to everyone else who has been accepted so far!
Can anyone tell me the tuition for the full and complete program? (I am a little cautious to get my hopes up after I understood one amount to be true of another program to which I was accepted, and it turned out to be substantially more than that)...
I don't believe so. I've stalked several threads from previous application cycles and it looks like they release decisions in batches. I don't know why, but it seems to be the case. I haven't heard back yet either and I'm trying my hardest to stay positive! I've been admitted to another very competitive program for ABSN but Hopkins has been my dream for quite some time.
Congratulations to everyone who has already been accepted and best of luck to those of us who are still waiting!
I haven't heard anything yet either and also trying not to get discouraged. Hopefully the good news is still coming and we will hear next week. Congrats on getting into the other program, bmadrid!
Does anyone know of a Facebook page that has been made for the Spring 2018 Cohort so we could get in contact with one another and start planning for January!? It will be here so soon, congrats to everyone who has gotten in!
Hi all, I received the email a few days ago for acceptance and am definitely interested in seeing who else will be attending. I am not familiar with Baltimore, so if anyone from the area has some advice about where to find a place to live (dog friendly) that would be great!
