  1. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    During my CNM interview, they told me I would know sometime around February 14th. So maybe they do it by
  2. 2018 UPenn BSN/MSN

    At the in-person interview day, they let us know that we will our receive financial aid award within about two weeks of their decision (and we will have about a month to make our decision at that...
  3. OSU Grad Entry 2018

    Wow that's great advice
  4. 2018 UPenn BSN/MSN

    Although just an estimate, they interview about double the number of accepted applicants. So roughly 180 people got
  5. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    If you have already turned in your FAFSA, you're done. There isn't a separate financial aid process for Vandy as far as I know. All scholarships are rewarded based on your
  6. OSU Grad Entry 2018

    Kibin! I love it. It's pretty reasonably priced and I've learned a lot about personal statement structure from it. Actually, you can use my url, and we both get 10 bucks off paper editing:...
  7. Yale GEPN 2018

    Thank you so much for this information YSN_student. I am curious- what is your background in? Do you feel like we should spend time reviewing our A&P book before hand? Also, why do you think...
  8. Yale GEPN 2018

    I am flying into JFK (the only non-stop from my local airport) and renting a car. It was actually cheaper than flying into the local
  9. Yale GEPN 2018

    You guys, I can't breathe...Interview for me as well! Scheduled for Feb. 1st- NM/WHNP specialty. Congrats everyone! To those that did not get an interview, keep your head up. You are all so awesome,...

    Yes, most everyone interviewing has been independent for some time and YES it does sound stingy. There were a lot of people at the meeting clarifying "But, I'm 27 years old..." or "But, I haven't...
  11. OSU Grad Entry 2018

    Hmmm.. interesting because my gpa was 3.4 for undergrad. But I also got my degree in engineering??? Not sure why they told you that when you're so close to the
  12. 2018 UPenn BSN/MSN

    Yes, I'm going for the BSN/MSN track. So I'm not sure when they will let you know.
  13. 2018 UPenn BSN/MSN

    They didn't tell me directly, but I heard from some other folks that it will be in the low hundreds. Also, I'm not sure how many direct-entry midwife students are accepted, but I believe there's 8-10...
  14. OSU Grad Entry 2018

    I volunteered as a doula with my local hospital (this took some time- I had to network and make some connections first), I volunteered with the Midwifery Association of my home state (probably the...

    The in person interview for CNM went pretty well I think. Overall, there were a lot more CNMs interviewing than I expected. Maybe around 30? Plus all of the people who have phone interviews... I'm...
  16. OSU Grad Entry 2018

    In for Midwifery! For all of those that didn't make it, let your disappointment be the fire that makes you come back stronger next year. Feel your passion and own it. But do not feel overcome by it....
  17. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    Mine actually went about 25 minutes... I wouldn't worry about it. It was a pretty laid back conversation and I got to ask all the questions I wanted to. Hope this
  18. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    Good luck! You will do
  19. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    No, unfortunately! I went in blind.
  20. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    Hi Everyone! Just got done with my interview! It was honestly so much fun. I got to talk about what I was passionate about and my interviewer was incredibly nice. Just makes me fall in love with Vandy...
  21. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    I got it with everyone else (on December 1st I think)- which was kind of strange considering I had already gotten my interview invite by that time. I think they were a bit
  22. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    This is an interesting question. From my perspective, I think they place the most emphasis on your personal statement. I don't have the most amazing GPA or GRE scores, but still managed to get an...
  23. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    For anyone curious, I was sent a poll to fill out for my 3 most preferential times. The dates and times started on Monday (December 4th) and went through Thursday of next week. I still have not heard...
  24. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    Oh I see! Sorry for the misunderstanding- no, I do not have a nursing degree. I applied for the pre-specialty program. Hope that clears it
  25. Vanderbilt MSN 2018

    Yes-- that's the program I applied for.
