  11. Yale GEPN vs BSN + Frontier for CNM

    scarykarrey replied to acumama's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Isn't it true, too, that Frontier requires 1 year of nursing experience before admission? So, you'd need to go the ADN route anyway, if you're wanting to attend that school, so that you could work for...

  12. Applying for UIC DNP...

    scarykarrey replied to NewGradChiNP's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I'm waiting to be able to log into the system, although it's probably going to take me a little longer since I turned in my enrollment confirmation+deposit late. I've started plugging away at getting...

    scarykarrey replied to NewGradChiNP's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

  14. UAB Fall 2014 NP Programs

    scarykarrey replied to scarykarrey's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    No, my cumulative GPA is definitely not stronger. That's why my "last 60hr calculation" is hurt so badly by the fact that they won't include my ADN program in it, because once I got into nursing...

  16. UAB Fall 2014 NP Programs

    scarykarrey replied to scarykarrey's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    As far as I know, UAB does not have a wait-list. So, no. He told me that if I do the calculations and I'm sure my most recent grades will pull my overall GPA above 3.0, then I should reapply for...

  17. UAB Fall 2014 NP Programs

    scarykarrey replied to scarykarrey's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    He claimed it was on this form, although I don't see it anywhere: http://www.uab.edu/nursing/home/images/stories/info_sa/GRE_MAT_Waiver.pdf The FAQ doesn't make any distinction in ADN grades (copied...

  18. UAB Fall 2014 NP Programs

    scarykarrey replied to scarykarrey's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    According to JU, Director of Student Services of the School of Nursing, they do not factor 2-year program grades into their GPA calculations. When I sent my program director my grades way back in...

  19. UAB Fall 2014 NP Programs

    scarykarrey replied to scarykarrey's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I just got off the phone with the director of student services, who told me that I was not admitted because my GPA for the last 60 hours was calculated at a 2.8, since they don't factor in grades from...

  23. Financial Aid

    scarykarrey posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  24. UAB Fall 2014 NP Programs

    scarykarrey replied to scarykarrey's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I know that it doesn't mean for sure that I haven't been admitted, and I wouldn't doubt that she's entirely too busy to even look into it for me. I'm just kinda lost as to what my next steps will be...
