    aspiring.midwife replied to OntheHorizon's topic in General Students

    Hi Steph :) Were you the one who said you'd been a birth doula at OHSU? I wanted to ask you about that, actually. I didn't realize OHSU hired doulas. I'm the one who said I'd been to Guatemala and...

    aspiring.midwife replied to weezbug123's topic in Post Graduate Students

  6. Any Jan 2010 UIC GEP Applicants Out There?

    aspiring.midwife replied to weezbug123's topic in Post Graduate Students

    rnewhouse1, I feel your pain, as I'm in a similar situation for OHSU - though their program doesn't start until June 12th, so I have a little longer to find housing and everything if I don't get into...

    aspiring.midwife replied to weezbug123's topic in Post Graduate Students

    aspiring.midwife replied to weezbug123's topic in Post Graduate Students
