lvICU, Prespecialty students do not need PDAs, but its "preferred" for specialty year. Get an iPhone if you can. The applications are great and easy to read because the screen is larger than most phone/PDAs. Of if you don't want to purchase a phone the iTouch works just as well and you can connect to wireless networks. Alot of students have blackberrys but most prefer the iPhone.

Hi all, I am an ANP student at Vandy. I came in as a prespecialty student and am in my specialty year now. I am doing my specialty from a distance, which is really convenient because I am able to do clinicals in the area that I plan to work. Meredith09 If it helps, I was also on the wait-list and got my acceptance call the first week of June. lvICU I am familiar with the area and would suggest looking for listings on craigslist. It usually has good condos listed that are privately owned. Green hills is very nice but pricey, bellvue is a short commute (10-30 minutes with traffic to campus) but prices are lower, and sylvan park is a nice area to find a cute rental home that is close to the city. Medic09 Go to Vandy! The name provides great leverage on your resume and your experience will help as well. I have not graduated yet and about half of my class as well as myself have already recieved job offers. Message me if you have any questions!
