  1. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hey everyone - I'm applying in nurse midwifery. Definitely nervous, but I felt really good about my application when I sent it in, so now I'm just waiting to see if they felt the same. I'm looking...

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Wait, have you not turned your application in yet? I thought they were due on the first? Did I not sleep for three days prior to the deadline just for

    wait! isn't there a deadline on that scholarship application of february 15? did i totally screw that

  4. difference between CNM and CPM

    partera replied to bnakol's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    You can also become a CPM without going to 'school', just by doing self-study or distance courses and maintaining your portfolio of births/exams you have done through an apprenticeship (note: the...

  5. ? Re: mother's size and ability to push out 'big' baby

    partera replied to blueindigo79's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    If you ever have the good fortune to come across someone who knows pelvimetry well (and I mean manual pelv), have them explain it to you. It's also pretty comprehensively explained in the textbook...

  6. OHSU Accelerated Bachelors to Masters 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Oregon Nursing

    yep, i put the login name there. are you doing all of your essays single-spaced within the suggested page length? i asked a few friends to read my essays last week, and they were all AMAZED that a...

  7. OHSU Accelerated Bachelors to Masters 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Oregon Nursing

    That's what I'm seeing... It says 'application type: accelerated BS to MS or DNP' in the left column, then 'accelerated bachelor's in the one to the right? I think we're on the same page, so hopefully...

  8. OHSU Accelerated Bachelors to Masters 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Does anyone have any specs on that last essay and whether we have to include the separate 'bias against patient' paragraph within the 2-page length? And (I am a talker, so this comes up) they suggest...

  9. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Post Graduate Students

    No, they didn't go into that type of specifics -- the Yale info sessions are kind of short and try to cover A LOT of ground. I don't really think there is a set number -- if they admitted a lot of...

  10. OHSU Accelerated Bachelors to Masters 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Oregon Nursing

    It is a kind of incredible number of essays. I have plenty to say (always! hah! I'm a talker!) but am having a dickens of a time organizing it between this essay and that... I feel you, it's tough....

  11. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Post Graduate Students

    No, it was GEPN-specific session. Sorry I can't be of

  12. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I went to an info session at Yale the other day, and was told that they take 75-80 out of 400 or so applicants. The number they take is dependent upon the distribution of GEPN students in the previous...

  13. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thanks for your offer of answering Yale questions... can you shed any light on how much debt the average GEPN student has at the end of the program? I have very little money in the bank, but...

  14. OHSU Accelerated Bachelors to Masters 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Do you happen to know anything about the fees there? I'm confused by the fee charts -- wondering if non-residents (me) pay resident tuition plus non-resident FEES, or if the number in the...

  15. OHSU Accelerated Bachelors to Masters 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I'm applying but similarly confused by the app... really need to get to work on it, that much I know. It's funny how no one else has replied to this -- maybe it's just you and me applying this

  16. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    partera replied to babymidwife1's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Does anyone (prospective or past GEPN'r) know what kind of postgrad debtload most people end up with? And, possibly more importantly -- can you work as an RN during your 2 years of specialty, and if...

  17. 2011 UCSF MEPN Applicants

    partera replied to astrelle's topic in Post Graduate Students

    According to the UCSF website, "Interviews are typically scheduled towards the end of January." I don't know if that means that's when we would hear from them, or if they've contacted people a couple...

  18. Columbia University ETP 2011

    partera replied to PacoUSA's topic in New York Nursing

    Hopkins -- congrats. Knitting is fun, I look forward to getting back to it once I submit my ETP app on October 28 :) Where else did you apply, out of curiosity? Two schools I wanted to apply to seem...

  19. Upcoming male CNM student seeking perspective

    partera replied to MaineMan88's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I am currently in the process of applying to the ABSN/CNM programs, and I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who spoke here. It opened my (female!) eyes to the presence of males in nurse-midwifery,...

  20. 2011 UCSF MEPN Applicants

    partera replied to astrelle's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I was in the same boat, and just realized I had used a registration number from my GRE ticket, which is not the same number provided on my score sheet from them. I just logged into mygre.com, saw a...

  21. 2011 UCSF MEPN Applicants

    partera replied to astrelle's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hmmm... two pages, 12 pt font. That can't possibly mean double-spaced, right? Cause mine is 2 pages + 3 lines, single spaced. I feel good about it, but suddenly wonder if i've majorly screwed up....

  22. 2011 UCSF MEPN Applicants

    partera replied to astrelle's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I have a question about goal statements -- can anyone out there give some input as to whether you should focus mostly on your chosen specialty, or nursing in general? I am applying to the nurse...
