Hi, I am also leaning towards accepting at Yale, but waiting to hear about a scholarship at Emory. Sorry, I live in NYC and can't offer any advice about the x-country move. Good luck with that!...
Shallowhorn--the answer is YES! I also knew the numbers when I was applying, but they seemed so large that they just floated out into the ether. Now that I am writing up a budget for my first year,...
Thanks Oooladoula and Biddy for this good information. I live in NYC and don't have a car, so I will have to get on that! I am pretty sure now that I am New Haven-bound :) I am starting to feel...
Man, I thought we would have heard earlier. But, I just checked my notes and I had written down "March 15th" as the approximate date we would hear from UCSF. Also, does anyone know how their...
I have written in my notes that we will hear from G-town around the last week of Feb as to whether or not we are invited to interview. I am not sure if this is accurate though, as I can't remember...
I am certified thru DONA and will offer my 2 cents. Originally, I took the DONA course b/c it was the cheapest in my city. I am glad I did. DONA provided me with comprehensive training. Although...
Hi, I did a lot of my science prereqs for nursing school online. I actually took both A&P I and A&P II thru ccconline. They are not easy and require a lot of discipline, but one thing that...

FYI, re: private loans: that is great advice about not taking them out unless ABSOLUTELY necessary. but let's face it, sometimes our living expenses like rent and car payments just aren't covered by...
Ranger Liz, I applied to UCSF, Yale, Columbia, Georgetown, Penn & Emory for midwifery and each school has stressed how important your whole package is, not just your scores/GPAs. I know that...

Wow, I am so bummed. I sent my app in early this fall and rec'd an early response from Emory (I think mid Dec) but didn't realize there was an accelerated BSN/MSN program. I applied to the BSN/MSN...
Biddy, Thanks for your insight! I am definitely leaning towards Yale (midwifery) and like everyone else, scared about the finances of it all. I think we should receive our financial aid packages...

Hi all, congrats on your acceptances! I just found this thread. I am also accepted for the FNM specialty, but my letter states that I will start in the Fall. So confused? Is everyone else starting...
I'm in for midwifery! Congrats to all who were accepted/wait-listed and best of luck to everyone who is still waiting to hear! Does anyone know if there will be a another visit
Oooladoula, Thank you so much for your thoughtful response. Every bit of information helps! I hope to meet you at the Columbia revisit and we can chat more. GOOD LUCK
