Its an option but I think they is less money available for graduate degrees-most are completely loans

I had my interview on 2/29...haven't heard anything yet. They said everyone would know by today the 15th but I guess not. Looks like i"m either waitlisted or denied..oh well.

Thanks CWRN.. ill check it out.. I know Northeastern is pricey but it is a good school. Not sure how I feel about everything being online though..

I was called today by the admissions office and I was denied entry for the traditional program but accepted into the hybrid program for the summer cohort but since I am graduating may 19, I would have to defer entry until fall. The program allows you to go into admin or neonatal but to go into the other specialties you have to reapply. I was also accepted into the family specialty at MHG. Northeastern was my number 1 school so I feel inclined to study there plus the commuters charelstown is really difficult! Tey said there would be no difference in my bachelors degree and no where on any paperwork would it differentiate hybrid from traditional pathways. Labs and clinically would still be in Boston and Burlington. I am going to have a tough time deciding, where is everyone else at with these schools? My deposit for MGH is due march 29, June for NEU. I hope this helps/I would love as much feedback as possible!!

I had my interview a couple weeks ago and still haven't heard anything. Has anyone else not heard?

I finally recieved a letter today...I am waitlisted but it says ill be notified by May 30th which must be wrong cuz the program starts before then.

has anyone heard anything recently?

Got the same letter as Journey.. looks like our chances of getting off the waitlist are pretty slim.. plus, we should know by May 30th?? doesn't the program start June 1st?

Journey.. did you apply to curry or any other Boston area schools?

journey933 · Mar 27, 2012

No i only applied to umb and massbay as a back up but thats only an RN program.

I still haven't heard anything and had my interview first week of March. Something is very strange about how this whole process has gone.

I also received a letter saying that I am waitlisted. I received the letter on March 23. I'm pretty sure the first day of classes is May 28, but I think they give until May 30 to inform the waitlist incase some people drop out after the first day or two.

They appear to be very unorganized or just unable to handle the volume of applications they receive! Some of my items were still missing on my online app status checklist well past the deadline. I kept calling because I wanted to make sure they in fact received everything and that I had a fair chance of being looked at. They just said not to worry about it and then finally someone asked me to resubmit what was missing at the end of Feb. I don't think they got to my app until Feb 29th... I was probably the last one they looked at...

Talvo, that's a good point. I guess I didn't consider the fact that some people might drop out?? Figured everyone who accepts admission would want to stay!
