I am currently in the ETP program, about to start my second semester in a little over a week. Just to throw in my two cents: during clinicals this summer at NYP-Cornell, I was able to talk to a clinical nurse specialist who gave me some insight on h...

Okay, you really need to drop this. You made your point a long time ago, but no one cares. You have criticized us for attacking you, but this last post is pretty inflammatory. The fourth paragraph in your rant is completely uncalled for. I actual...

Finally! This thread is back to being helpful and encouraging! Let's keep it this way... I look forward to meeting everyone in a few days!

during the master's portion, how many hours per week did you work?

Sorry for calling you an ass...I was kind of rambling in my post. Uncalled for on my part, even though I disagree with you. You are entitled to your opinion in this open forum. You should be able to understand the excitement and anticipation we al...

columbiaetp04: I am about to start the etp program next week. I want to tell you (since you seem to feel it is necessary to lecture us) that from the moment I started my applications to direct entry programs, I expected to have to take out a large a...

Has anyone started reading the two required readings we are supposed to have read by the start of classes? I just ordered them from Amazon and was able to get both, brand new, for $45 including shipping. It says on the accepted etp page that we wil...

Yeh, I've received a few emails, but all have been university affiliated. I assume everyone with a CU email account receives these emails to ensure that everyone is informed about events, etc. Very exciting, though! I'm glad they have our summer s...

Accepted etp webpage is up! I got an email today from Judy, and I already have my CU email!

You said you are in the Women's Health Certificate Program, which means that I am assuming you already have your MSN, since the certificate programs are for individuals that already have their MSN in another specialty but want to move on. This would...

I didn't get a sink either...oh well. I was actually hoping for the really small room that is only $10.50 per day, but I can't really complain. I don't think I'll stay in the dorm past this summer. I just figure it will be easy to move into right ...

I got my housing assignment via fedex today! I am in Bard Hall, room 511! Hope to see more of you in there with me!!

So we won't find out until next week?? What the hell?

Question about dress codes do we only need to wear our scrubs/uniforms and all white shoes when we are doing clinical rotations, or do we also have to wear that during normal class lectures? Just curious!

sorry...same message posted twice

Wow. As a male, I will not feel comfortable practicing pelvic exams on my female classmates. I obviously know that doing pelvic exams will be in the scope of my specialty (fnp), but performing one on a patient who needs the exam for her physical he...

I'm in for sure!

Does anyone know if we can wear crocs if they are the all white ones with no holes??

I've used both littmann stethoscopes and they are both fine. I ordered the Littmann II SE package. If you are going to throw down money for a nice one, get the electronic cardiology one for a few hundred bucks...but you most definitely won't need i...

Thanks for letting me know! Any advice on good brokers in the washington heights area?? Also, if any current students or accepted individuals already living in NYC have vacancies in their apartments I would definitely be interested!

Hey everyone, what's up? I've been thinking a lot lately about the dorms...and it just sounds absolutely awful. For one, I won't eat ramen and easy mac every day and survive the summer schedule. Second, it's close to $700 a month for a tiny cube, ...

Are there any meal plans for people in student housing? I can't imagine cooking all my meals in a shared kitchen with 30+ people each day. If there are meal plans, where is the dining hall and how is the food? Thanks!

I didn't get mine until yesterday (i was out of town)...so i overnighted my application this morning via fedex for a cool $25. I am crossing my fingers to get a room, otherwise i don't know where i'll sleep!!

Wow...it seems like a lot of us are going to be recent graduates from our undergrad schools. I graduate on May 14th! It will be a crazy 2 weeks:)

Hey everyone! Hope all is well...did everyone get the email from Judy today? Lots of stuff due on the 14th/15th of March. Is anyone here applying for housing? I definitely am, I won't have time to search for apartments between now and May 28th. ...
