Hi everyone! I'm a current Georgetown student! I'm completing semester 4. It is the best decision I've ever made to go through with this program. I truly love it... HOWEVER... start networking and finding potential preceptors for yourself now. While ...

So I'm doing clinical with a CNM I work with in a clinic at the hospital I work at. However, once I start delivering babies I cannot work on the labor unit anymore because it's a conflict of interest. But I guess it all depends on what hospital you w...

It went really well! I'm definitely not disappointed and I love being apart of this program. I'm really excited for OCI in a few weeks and to start clinical in the fall. How has it gone for you?

There's a Facebook group called Georgetown university msn students that includes current students and graduates! Just search for it and request to be added!

You pick from 3 different "pots". You pick A, B, or C. It's been over a year now so I don't remember my questions but I was also applying for CNM/WHNP and I know 1 of the questions I actually remember was specifically geared towards my specialty.

I had my preceptor picked out and ready to go before I even applied. My school started reaching out and getting all the ducks in a row a year out but I'm in a cnm program and it's hard to find CNM preceptors.

I've been blessed that I haven't had issues but I applied to a program that I knew had a contract with the midwife I have chosen as my preceptor. So when they came to me they told me they have 1 clinical contract in my area and if I have access to th...

Some colleges/universities will allow you to take courses for credit without being on an official trac (duke University allows this). You could apply for this option as a way to "prove" that you can do well in a masters program but be aware some scho...

I'm so sorry you're having a tough time í ½í¸• I somehow got into Georgetown with a 2.86 and I'm thriving in the program (3.49 current GPA). I don't believe an undergrad GPA means a lot but it's frustrating to see that it's holding you back. I think ...

So I have worked full time all 3 semesters so far (7 12s plus 2-3 12 hr call shifts within a 14 day period). I've just had to be self disciplined and self motivated and my husband has had to pick up a lot of slack with the kids and house. If you lay ...

I'll be starting semester 3 in May and I LOVE Georgetown! Seriously the BEST decision I ever made. It's a roller coaster ride but I am excited about each new semester. Good Luck! There are lots of us that are here if you ever need support. The classe...

I haven't read them, but part of me believes I had to have phenomenal letters of rec. I also know that my statement of purpose was extremely strong (had 2 midwives tell me that it exceeded their statements). I felt my interview was mediocre at best ...

Choose your school wisely. I don't believe you have 0% chance at all but don't go applying to a school who puts a lot of emphasis on your GPA. I specifically looked at schools who state they look holistically at the entire application. I start at geo...
