    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    Just a quick update. I e-mailed the SON again to ask about my pre-reqs and they basically said the same thing they told me last time but with a few more details. An admissions counselor reviews our...

    No, you didn't freak me out lol, don't worry on that front. I am just taking it one day at a time and trying to keep busy so I don't think about the wait too much. I will just take it as it comes...

    I think because some spots are probably reserved / ear marked for certain people like I mentioned in my previous post. Some are allocated to Emory alumni etc and what ever criteria the school...

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    Uh oh! Then maybe that isn't such a good sign for me then since I did e-mail twice and no one was willing to clear my pre-reqs for me. I guess all I can do is wait. Yeah, I might be wrong about...

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    Yeah, as in make sure all my items are present. The reason I asked which specialty is because most schools review applicants by specialty and each selection committee meets at different times. From...

    Which specialty are you applying

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    I've also e-mailed as well but they keep saying that my pre-reqs will be cleared once they review my application and my transcripts but I guess it doesn't hurt to e-mail again to see if there are any...

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    We discussed this earlier in the thread but some of the reasons that I have put forward are as follows: 1) In previous year's threads (2016 and 2017), it was basically stated that alumni are pretty...

  9. The Men in OB Debate: Help!

    Ohm108 replied to jay_prn's topic in General Nursing

    Go for it! I have posted about this before but as a doula and a male applying to midwifery programs, I can tell you that there will be women who decline your help but they are the minority and there...

    Thank you @HMorenoT for the update! I was wondering what was happening since none of my pre-reqs have been reviewed yet either and I submitted in early July. Good to know they are still

    Lol, thank you for the confidence boost @AFutureNP I really needed that today. The school receives 3000+ applications each cycle and I am only one among many outstanding candidates with backgrounds...

    Hi AFutureNP, Unfortunately, the dual track CNM and FNP specialty has most definitely been discontinued. Many of us were disappointed by the decision especially in the middle of the application...

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    Do all of your checklist items have green checkmarks? All my pre-reqs still have red Xs which means my application hasn't been reviewed yet. I'm going to build in more time for admissions to respond...

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi @nurseB_2NP, Which speciality did you end up choosing, as I think it makes a difference since applicants are admitted by specialty? FNP I believe is earlier then

  15. EMORY ABSN+MSN 2018

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    Then you probably will find out earlier then me. Just from looking at the 2017 threads, FNP acceptances by students were earlier then the ones for CNM. I didn't even see any CNM acceptance...

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    No problem! Which specialty did you apply

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm not sure about Emory but other schools have told me that having your pre-reqs in progress doesn't affect your competitiveness as a candidate. The only difference is that your acceptance is...

    Hi Soon2bBSNgrad, The priority application deadline is Oct 15th this year and according to the website the decisions won't be released until Nov 15th. However, last year some of the students started...

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks for the info! Was the form on your application checklist or within OPUS? Even though they have said that they uploaded to my account I don't see anything. Will wait a bit and log back and see...

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi @nurseB_2NP, I got another update from Emory and it looks like from my end that the discontinuation of the dual specialty for FNP and midwifery is still happening. Since you haven't received a...

    Was your score actually sent on Sept 8th or did you ask ETS to send them for you on the 8th? If you asked them to be sent, it takes another 5-8 days for them to process the request and actually send...

    Ohm108 replied to tnoelle's topic in School, College Programs

    I think you should e-mail them to ask and get some clarification. @Kirby1771 mentioned that the person that you should contact was Katie Kennedy about making the election. I looked her up and she is...
