  1. Anyone applying to the Duke ABSN program for Fall 2009 (c/o 2011)?

    SFChef replied to ybq2008's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oops, yes I meant Dec. 31 for the GRE! And I am totally using study guides--I have Princeton Review and Kaplan, and I signed up for an online class through Kaplan. I'm not too worried about the...

  2. Anyone applying to the Duke ABSN program for Fall 2009 (c/o 2011)?

    SFChef replied to ybq2008's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yep, I am applying. My application is almost ready to submit, but I just want to fine-tune my personal statement. And, I haven't taken the GRE yet...ugh! I am scheduled to take it on January 31...

  3. Any UCSF Mepn Applicants?

    SFChef replied to Louise409's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I am from the Bay Area, and I can tell you that Samuel Merritt is not all that competitive. I mean, let's be honest, if you are applying to UCSF, then you probably have a fairly decent applicant...

  4. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Congrats Serasarah and CaliNurse! Well done...you both must be so excited. I still haven't received a call, so I called and they told me that a letter was mailed to me earlier in the week. We all...

  5. Columbia University-ETP

    SFChef replied to jcarranz5's topic in Post Graduate Students

    In the end, I decided not to apply to Columbia (because I only really want to go to Hopkins). Probably not the best choice, to put all my eggs in one basket. Anyhow, I had really considered Columbia...

  6. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I think I remember from an online chat that they usually aim for a class of between 120 and 150 (and the same for the

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I know exactly what you mean, CaliNurse...every time the phone rings my hopes get high--and then Caller ID says it's someone else.

  8. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    No word yet, but I finally got an email back from Sylvia and she said the admissions committee is still making decisions and that calls will be made through Monday. This waiting is driving me

  9. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Kinilina, I sent an email to Sylvia, but didn't get a response either. I hope it's not a bad sign. Okay, I'm going to keep

  10. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Well, I still haven't heard from Hopkins, so I wonder if that means I didn't get accepted. My husband says that they are probably still making calls, but I don't feel so sure... What do you guys...

  11. Hopkins...Who Else is Applying?

    SFChef posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Okay, I sent my application in for Early Decision to Hopkins...I have applied for the traditional BSN program. Originally, I had planned on applying for the ABSN, but the more I learned about...

  12. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Congratulations to all who have received calls...hopefully more of us will hear something tomorrow. I'm excited for all of

  13. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Congratulations!!!! You must be so excited...now I'm going to sit by the phone and freak out the rest of the day... Good luck

  14. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm sure that if they call and no one answers, they will either leave a message or call back. I can't imagine that they put so much time into the application process just to pass you up if you don't...

  15. applying to JHU SON ABSN, any advice?

    SFChef replied to JustJane2008's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I totally agree with you! I would like the call sooner, but I really just want to get the call!! Good luck to all of

  16. applying to JHU SON ABSN, any advice?

    SFChef replied to JustJane2008's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hopkins Undergrad, I hope you're right about them calling us next week...do you have inside information on this, or are you just hoping for an early call like the rest of us? We should get a pool...

  17. Got accepted into BSN program in California but have no idea what the tuition is.

    SFChef replied to futurebsn0430's topic in California Nursing

    It is pretty easy to find tuition information on the school's website. For example, I typed "sacramento state tuition fees" into Google, and the following webpage is what I found. It has all of the...

  18. Nursing Students Treated Like 3rd Graders

    SFChef replied to MOLLBEE's topic in General Students

    Personally, I would be happy if my instructor did that! I'm not in nursing school yet, but I have finished all of my pre-reqs and I can tell you that cheating was rampant at my school (and most of...

  19. Exceptional clinical teacer...gift?

    SFChef replied to lazy_prodigy's topic in General Students

    I like the idea of giving gifts to a clinical instructor (or any instructor, really). However, I think it's best to give it as a group, as many of the posters have already described. When given as a...

  20. Columbia starts June 2...I finish June 4

    SFChef replied to girl.w/useless.b.a.'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You might be able to speak with your professors and finish your pre-req classes a week or two early. I have been in lots of classes where several people took their finals early because they were...

  21. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Congrats Serasarash! I know you really want to go to Hopkins, and it will be so much better to know sooner! It's very impressive to me that the JHUSON staff is so accommodating and easy to work...

  23. Conflicted....................

    SFChef replied to jorla9903's topic in General Students

    I know you are scared, but you have to go to clinical. If you don't go and you just give up, you will always wonder what might have been. At least go and give it a shot. You can always decide to...

  24. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I hope I am going to JHU...haven't been accepted yet. But I will know by December 15. And yes, I will be very excited!!! They have a new online application process--wow! I had no idea. When I...

  25. Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN 2009 Applicants!

    SFChef replied to karrie8o3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    YellowBone, ED is just short for "early decision". If you turned your application before November 1 and requested the early decision option, then Hopkins will notify you before December 15 with their...
