Hi! I'm a current student at JHUSON for the 2nd degree program. I don't have any kids..but I'll tell you a lot of what's helping me get through the program is my husband. He does a lot if not all of the cooking, cleaning, etc. I know a lot of other students in this program are married and/or have children. They are all managing great! If you contact the school, and ask for Shari Lynn..she is my advisor and also a graduate of the accel program. She was married, had children, and she'll tell you her experience of the program. The good thing is, it's only 13.5 months...once you start, it'll be over sooner than you know. Re: clinicals...they aren't all at Hopkins. Most clinical rotations are throughout hospitals in Baltimore inc. Mercy, Franklin Square, Union Memorial, Bayview, Hopkins, GBMC, Howard County, Sinai. No GPA minimum...they look at the whole person. Call..staff are incredibly kind! Hope this helps!
