  1. Wow I live in the one of the bottom 8 states for APRNs, but I'll be making a salary similar to the top few states for APRNs as a female new grad. I got this position a few months before actually...
  2. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    From a mass e-mail this morning: "Once again Vanderbilt University School of Nursing has been named among the "Best Graduate Schools" in the country by U.S. News and World Report magazine. We are...
  3. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    I've actually been off of Facebook for over a year because of a long list of reasons . From acceptance to enrollment, the syllabus for my classes was available 3-4 weeks before the start of classes....
  4. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

  6. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    Good luck to all of you who applied for the Fall 2016 entry at VUSN! I guess finding out about acceptance into the program varies in time frame from year to year. My AG-ACNP cohort got lucky, because...
  7. It's hard to believe that this time last year, I was jumping with joy upon learning about my acceptance into my top choice graduate school-Vanderbilt. I had spent much of 2014 working towards that...
  8. Vanderbilt: First Semester of Grad School

    I had basically told myself that it's impossible to memorize every single detail (especially if it's insignificant), and I read "with purpose." After reading the assigned chapters and handouts for the...
  9. Part-Time NP Programs: Opinions?

    I'm also thankful that my school (Vanderbilt-overall ranked #11 and my specialty AG-ACNP-ranked #5) has a 2 year part-time option. It allows me to continue working in a modified full-time schedule (at...
  10. How many schools did you apply to?

    I applied to only one school. I had my heart and soul set on attending Vanderbilt (for my ACNP), and I lucky got admitted and started the program this
  11. Stroke-Certified Registered Nurse (SCRN) Certification

    Thanks, Commuter! I'm now 1 of 4 nurses on my unit to have this certification.`` On a scale of 1 to 10, I would say the test was about a 5 for me (in comparison to about a 7 for the CCRN). I have been...
  12. Stroke-Certified Registered Nurse (SCRN) Certification

    Commuter, Have you decided whether or not you're going to take the SCRN exam? I passed the SCRN examination yesterday with a 269 (a 200 is required to pass)! It was pretty much a straight forward and...
  13. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    Yeah, there's pre-specialty non-RN, pre-specialty RN (RN with ASN), and direct-entry (RN with BSN). Basically those who are pre-specialty go through the "pre-specialty" year first, but those who...

  18. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    Alexevans21, I got an e-mail first, but a lot of people got a paper acceptance letter in the mail first. Since it's the holiday season, some people will get their mail a little late. You could try...

  20. Hello! I am going to open house at Vanderbilt on February 28th (last day to register is February 25th)! I found out on December 17th that I got accepted into the AG-ACNP program (direct entry) for...
  21. Vanderbilt GRE Score

    Although an excellent GRE score helps you stand out in a vast pool of competitive applicants, all hope is not lost if you don't have the best scores. I got into Vanderbilt for Fall 2015 with only a...

    I currently live on West End for about $1200 a month, but I'm going to move to a cheaper apartment in Green Hills in the summer time way before school starts in August. I like working overtime, but I...
