Nope I haven't heard anything except for an email about completing FAFSA stuff but that's it. I've emailed two different people about clarification on my admission letter since it just says health nursing MSN, nothing specific to PMHNP...but haven't ...

Thanks so much! :)

I got my acceptance email an hour ago! Anyone know the next step? Will someone from our program contact us?

Congrats!! I'm obsessively checking on mine while at work today haha

Yep, I have my phone on me constantly and I have been refreshing the application site every 30 minutes for the past few weeks...and now I keep checking my email every 30 minutes lol.

My status just changed over in the past hour to say recommendation submitted...fingers crossed!!

Nope and I check multiple times per day! Haha

Yes, I contacted them and they said that they are hoping to have all notifications out by May 1.

What program did you apply to?

Thanks for the info! Yes I got accepted to SLU but being that USC would be in-state tuition (half the cost of SLU!!!) for me and it's also the school that I'm more interested in, I would rather go to USC. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy that I was acce...

I applied for the PMHNP program for fall at USC. Have any of you heard anything about your applications?

I also applied to USC for their nurse practitioner program (PMHNP) and haven't heard anything and it still says decision pending online. I heard from the other school I applied to for fall today (Saint Louis University). Have you heard anything from ...

I have been working in ED nursing since graduating with my RN ~4.5 years ago and earned my BSN a year ago. Ever since starting nursing school, I have wanted to work with peds/adolescent psych patients, but everyone talked me out of it, including my ...

Depending on the community surrounding the hospital, there will be various types of patients. In my experience in working in community hospitals, in the past 5 years I have seen one stabbing, one shooting, a few drownings, many minor MVCs, and the r...

20-something female with c/o tampon stuck in vagina xfew hours and unable to find the string. She got tired of waiting so she had her boyfriend pull it out and then signed out AMA. 50-something overweight female with poor hygiene with c/o "I'm hemor...

Thanks! I got the job. I will be floating between a few ERs in the Charleston area. My friend lives in Daniel Island and it is expensive but she lucked out with her living situation. She is new down there too so she doesn't know much about the diffe...

Hello! If all went well on my second interview today with a hospital system in Charleston, I will be moving to the area within a month. My friend moved here in February and lives on Daniel Island. I love it, but apartments there are a bit pricier ...

I graduated from HCC in 2009 and it took up to a year for classmates to find a job. What helped me was working as a CNA and then a student nurse extern at the local hospitals while I was in school. As a new grad, I started out around $25/hour I bel...

I have my FNE-A/SAFE certification and live in a compact state and may be moving to another compact state. Will my certification still be valid?

This was one of my big concerns going into nursing too. I am a shy person and have social anxiety at times, but I was determined. One of the things that helped was getting my CNA before entering nursing school and working throughout my schooling as...

Keep in mind, the circumstances vary from hospital to hospital. I signed a contract at a local hospital while in school...they paid for my schooling and I would work for them 6 months for every semester they paid for (ADN). I am very happy with my d...

Jen! I'm sorry you aren't having any luck! I'll keep my ears open at HMH if I hear anything about them changing their hiring status of new grads! Keeping my fingers crossed for you! And yeah, after all of that stuff with St. Joe's, I'd be hesi...

Well no matter which one you go to, you can still get the scholarship and do the externship, but externs usually get taken on if they already work as a tech in the hospital. And yeah, I think only about 1/4 of my class has a job...and 2 people from ...

No problem! Also, if you decide to work for UCMC or HMH, look into their externship program when you are in the second semester for admittance for third semester. You get a lot more experience and it gets your foot in the door. I just graduated fr...

HCC offers programs in the summer for CNA and they are shorter than when I took it about 2.5 years ago. And I agree, it's good to have that experience. I took the CNA class the semester right before I found out that I was accepted into the nursing ...
