  1. 2012 UCSF MEPN Applicants

    I'm actually glad you brought this up - after I posted that response about funding increases I thought it might be misleading. What I had heard was that UCSF used to have a cap per MEPN cohort of 75,...
  2. 2012 UCSF MEPN Applicants

    Yeah, I believe it's 80+ students in each MEPN class. It used to be a few students smaller, and then they received a funding increase so they enlarged the size of incoming cohorts

  4. I recently found out a little more about this, so I thought I would share: 1) Not all MSN specialties at CUSON allow for you to do the joint MPH. In order to do the joint degree, you have to be able...
  5. This news is so depressing; we need more midwives, not fewer! Is anyone here currently in the program or hoping to be in it? The petition protesting this decision is here:...

    I'm scheduled for the morning session too. Good luck everyone! Looking forward to meeting some of you there, although I guess I won't really know who you all

    Are any of you going to the midwifery potluck on Thursday night? I'll be there - hope to meet some of you

    Just sent you a PM too,
  10. Columbia ETP Program 2012 entry

    Hi Michaela - I'd be happy to, but I'd prefer to send you a PM if that's ok. I'll send you my thoughts
  11. I think it's absurd that breastfeeding is being lumped in with "sex ed" as if its somehow equivalent to teaching a 4 year old how to use a condom. Breastfeeding is a part of childhood for many...
  12. Columbia ETP Program 2012 entry

    January 9 has come and gone so I guess those who were going to put down deposits have already done so...but here's a tip for those who are considering Columbia (or any other school, for that matter):...

    I did get an email - it literally just said
  14. Does anyone happen to know how many people apply and are admitted for Columbia's ETP program in the midwifery specialty? I keep hearing that it's very competitive but can't find out what that means......

    That's too bad, myelin. Is it the money that's got you
  16. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Just got an email saying that all the spaces are filled for staying with a current student before my interview (January 20), so I guess it's over to plan
  17. JHU or YALE?

    I'm sure it would be a great experience, but this is definitely the sort of thing that you could get a professor to help you out with on your own for a spring break period or for a summer (if you find...
  18. JHU or YALE?

    I'm interested to read more about Yale's opportunities to do rotations abroad, if you could point me in the right direction, FNPHopeful2012. I had read about the opportunities that they describe on...
  19. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    I indicated that I would like to stay with a current student, as they mentioned was possible in the interview notification email. I haven't yet gotten confirmation that this is actually happening (but...
  20. Columbia ETP Program 2012 entry

    Well, it's really unfortunate that all of our posts after December 14 were lost when AN upgraded the site. FYI for future applicants reading this thread, we got our ED notifications on December 20 in...
  21. Columbia ETP Program 2012 entry

    I know, I'm feeling pretty panicky too. I don't think it's too likely they'll roll over our applications - that would be too kind, right?
  22. 2012 UCSF MEPN Applicants

    Oh man. Why can't they just tell you over the phone?! Or email you the letter? Hope it's good
  23. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Oh, I love that poem! I pray for all my babies, Be good to your mama. I pray for all my mothers, Be strong, be good to this baby. I pray secretly and I pray slowly. I pray for us, the midwives and...

    I hope so! They did say by December 15...but this is the first year with ED, so who really knows what will
