3. Columbia University MDE/DNP - Summer 2026

   NSS0147 replied to SamIAm26's topic in School, College Programs

   NSS0147 replied to SamIAm26's topic in School, College Programs

   NSS0147 replied to 123tobeanurse's topic in School, College Programs

   I'm glad to hear things at Yale have gotten better. I think it was around 2022 (?) that they gutted their entire admin. I hope you're able to make whatever decision is in your best interest in terms...

   NSS0147 replied to 123tobeanurse's topic in School, College Programs
