  1. Just wanted to post this from the JHUSON website regarding another Fall Reception... Fall Reception in Boston - October 13, 2007 Join Marjorie Fass from the Office of Admissions and Student Services,...

    MSMC-Los Angeles AccBSN info...

    I recently submitted by MSMC ABSN application, is anyone else applying for Summer or Fall 2008? (Evidently there will be two application cycles which will select two cohorts of 40 individuals, rather...

    Samuel Merritt interview process (ABSN)

    Would anyone be able to shed light on why SMC required interviews for Oakland and Sac but not SF? Is it not the same program, merely in a different location? I'm applying for Fall 2008 in SF (only...

    How important are the grades?

    I would definitely recommend investigating the policies of each individual school/program you are applying to. The DEMSN program I applied to last year (UCLA MECN), only looks at the last 60 semester...
  5. Well I don't know about you all, but I think being relevant is totally overrated... Seriously, I'm not sure if you were exactly attempting to be rude, but you should probably consider the fact that...
  6. Its being held at the Claremont Resort & Spa. I'm missing one of my classes that night to come up and stay the night, then taking the super early flight back home the next day as to not miss...
  7. Kens, With the amount of programs you're applying to I can't imagine you wouldn't get in two at least 2 or 3 programs on your first try! Don't even start talking about a second round of...
  8. Welcome to our burgeoning group, spygirl! I think the JHU essays have honestly challenged me the most, they definitely made me dig deep to think of the most applicable and interesting life situations....

    thoughts on the Accelorated BSN program..

    I'm applying to several ABSN programs, and have been to information sessions for most all of them. Program directors have been very clear when they state that success in their programs is dependent on...

    Anyone else think pre-reqs are easy?

    I definitely agree with this! The current model seems to function under the premise that a pre-nursing students needs to build a foundation of information before entering the fundamental nursing...

    USD's MEPN program for Fall 2008

    500 words!? Try the 200-300 maximum I had to do for one of my apps....Sorry to derail, but thought I'd interject about the ridiculousness of some of these word

    Anyone else think pre-reqs are easy?

    Tx, I was pretty much in the same boat, I felt like I wasn't studying half as hard as my peers and I was doing so well in my classes. I also took Pharmacology and Physiology concurrently, although my...

    Yale's GEPN program for Fall 2008

    Kensington, I would imagine the best course of action in that regard would be just be honest about your lack of experience but also state that if you'd had any dialogues with advanced practice nurses...

    Opinions Appreciated

    If it literally doesn't matter what class you take to raise that GPA, go for the one(s) you feel you will have the most success in, simple as that. Do you know for sure that you will be getting a...

    Yale's GEPN program for Fall 2008

    Although I've asked a few current GEPN student, I honestly have no idea, but my concern was triggered by this question (among the many required by the application): Discuss your familiarity with...

    Yale's GEPN program for Fall 2008

    Kensington, I'm still on the fence about applying to the Yale program. I'm also applying for the Acute Care specialty, but at this time was considering only Columbia and JHU (as you know). I guess...

    Gpa

    Some schools will examine your cumulative GPA, degree GPA, or just the last 60 semester (or 90 quarter units) taken under your previous BA/BS degree. Many times, they will then extract your pre-req...
  20. Katie, I just sent you a private message with contact
  21. I wouldn't worry about the CC courses, many applicants who already have graduated with their BA/BS (like me, for instance) have had to return to school to complete many of the pre-reqs. I've done 80%...

    help with nursing schools!!

    Katie, I posted a few replies to your other threads, but wanted to address a point regarding going for the BSN rather than BSN/MSN. Note that in relation to JHU if you apply to the BSN/MSN...
  23. I've taken a combo Biochem/Inorganic/Organic (5 unit) chem course and if its similar to your course, the math will truly not be that tough to deal with. Just a lot of conversion problems within...
  24. Let's rethink the logic of the above argument. 300 and 400 courses are upper division courses that are specifically offered at 4-year universities, and clearly not at CCs. Your argument is comparing...
