Yeah I keep checking mine as well! On 01/04 they did make changes to my application portal and now everything has a green check mark so at least I know they did not forget about me LOL. I also applied...
As hopeful as I want to be, I don't think we will be receiving decisions until mid-to-late January to be honest. ? Although I would much prefer hearing back as soon as possible
Congrats to everyone who has been accepted so far!!?
I have a question. I saw in previous forums that some applicants are not accepted into the Direct Entry MSN program, but instead are...
From what I have seen and learned throughout this process is that decisions are really unknown. It is hard to truly know what a program is looking for specifically and they also probably try to build...
I did! I would love to participate in the Global Initiatives Program, that would be so exciting and rewarding. Oh I see, I honestly had no idea you could do that tbh haha. Best of luck to
Absolutely! I applied to the MDE only route for right now but I would definitely consider doing a DNP program in the future, specifically for the opportunities that come with being a nurse
Ahhh I love that! I currently work as a medical scribe in cardiology and I was beyond intimidated at first when I started because the cardiovascular system is SO complex, but it has really shown me...
You all sound so amazing and regardless of the decision from Columbia, I know we will all make outstanding nurses some day!
I applied for the MDE only route under the FNP specialty as I want to...
That makes sense! Thank you both for doing the dirty work and calling FAFSA haha.
Yeah I would assume so since 5th year undergraduate is associated with a second bachelors and doesn't count...
OMG that is so confusing and such a hassle. I applied to Duke and they sent me an email saying to specifically apply under 5th year undergraduate so I went back into my FAFSA and switched it but now I...
Yeah, NYU's tuition is a bit ridiculous to me though since it is only a BSN that you are receiving and other programs provide a Masters degree at the same cost, so it's really like mmmm, is it truly...
Yeah I totally understand that. I absolutely love my apartment and where I live in LA so it would definitely come down to a big decision if I were to be accepted to a school in NYC. It's just that I...
Well, a scholarship is financial assistance, so yeah that haha. However, some programs provide more financial assistance in terms of loans through the school whereas others don't provide as much and...
I am sure your clinical experience and unique approach to nursing will definitely catch their eye, on top of your solid academic performance. Best of luck to you!
I really made sure to have as many options as possible because admission decisions can tend to be all over the place and some programs have a reputation of not always providing the best financial aid...
Oh so you are only looking to stay in NYC? I am all the way over in Los Angeles but I love NYC so I definitely would not mind making the big move over. I was considering applying to SUNY Downstate but...
Yes, I also received a holiday email on 12/17 as well. I'm pretty sure it is just a standard email sent to all applicants, but I would love if it actually meant something more
True. I mean I don't mind the option of having some classes be remote but I know that everyone's learning style is different. The only thing that really needs to be in person is clinicals or labs, so...
