Sent my deposit into MGH yesterday! I'll be going for child/adolescent psych track...can't wait to start and meet everyone Saturday!

Is anybody else accepted/attending for the psych speciality? Just realized that we don't get Summers off....which seems kind of weird. It's only one class required in the Summer but judging by the curriculum online it seems like we're the only specia...

this might sound like a dumb question---but it new this year that MGHIHP program gives us a BSN AND an MSN? I remember on the 2009 MGHIHP thread reading that MGH direct entry students did not get a BSN along the way

sorry-posted too soon, when you go to the US news website---search schools in MA only and MGH, NU, BC, etc will come up with their rankings the MGHIHP website posted an article that they were moved to #3 in New England http://www.mghihp.edu/about-us/...

Thanks for the advice! you definitely have me sold---need to look into these and see if I can manage to get them both online in succession--might be tough since I need A&P I before II. I wish I knew this before I decided to take microbio at my sc...

Hi Molls- I'm not a current student, actually I'll be attending for the Direct Entry program starting this Fall...but I do have a friend in the program and one who just graduated so hopefully I can provide some answers. From what I understand, the st...

Thanks so much for the info! I am definitely going to look into. What do you think of the courses? are they fairly challenging? I just want to make sure I can adapt to an online learning style, but it sure beats sitting in a classroom all Summer!

Speaking of Summer courses...I have to complete A&P I and II this summer (awful, I know...) I'm trying to find a way to avoid quitting my nannying job and thus am looking for online courses but cannot find them offered anywhere! Does anyone have ...

I've also decided on MGH. I'm waitlisted at Northeastern which was originally my top choice because that's where I'll get my undergrad degree from in May...but I sort of took this whole process as a sign. The more I've looked into MGH I feel like it'...

if it's posted it would be right when you log in on the bottom of the page. for example, when you log in you see a page with a checklist of all things complete, your recommenders, etc. if there's a decision posted there will be a link that says "deci...

Hi Becca- for Northeastern, try logging on to your application online. I never received an email or a letter by logged in to mine on a whim and saw that I was waitlisted. It was posted on the 21st so it's hard to tell---if I never looked I would have...

http://www.mghihp.edu/about-us/newsdetail.aspx?item=2011-03-24-us-news-2012-ranking.xml check it out! up in the rankings! I am on the waitlist at Northeastern but I think I am going to go to MGH...the more I read and the more I talk to people, I feel...

this is so exciting! can't wait to meet you all! is anyone else really young and kind of anxious about jumping right into grad school? I'm only 21 and graduating from undergrad in May...I know this is what I want but I think it just hit me that after...

thank you! the email came in at 11:15 pm....so im guessing its an automated email? which means you will all get your good news soon! my fingers are crossed for you all.

JUST GOT MY ACCEPTANCE EMAIL! im legitimately shaking.

i'm thinking next time we need better voice disguises. I still have one of those "Home Alone" movie voice changers, I might test it out. if they could match voices to applications they'd reject us all due to annoyance haha.

I bet the people in the MGH admissions office talk SO much smack about us every time we call...keep up the good work guys and we'll get these decisions soon! If we're all classmates next year our persistence would be a force to be reckoned with haha

Don't worry Choco-I started skipping my afternoon classes to wait for the mailman. Now THAT is rock bottom. I also remember the family track being especially popular when I was at the info session. I applied for the child/adolescent psychiatry track....

You two both have some really positive outlooks! Thanks for sending some of that my way....I tend to get pessimistic sometimes. (easy to do) But HugANurse, you are right....whatever's meant to be will be, definitely sounds corny but that's really the...

If I get into both i'd choose Northeastern. I love the school and would love to have both of my degrees from there. However, if I do get into MGH it'll be tough since I don't know when I'll ever hear from Northeastern. I also heard MGH have excellent...

Congrats....thats awesome! See, I knew you'd get good news soon! Looks like no GRE prep courses for us haha. Well, I still might be there....we'll see! On the waitlist at Northeastern and no email from MGH yet...out of curiosity, is your decision als...

Hi Choco-- thanks for the well wishes, I hope it turns into an acceptance too! They didn't tell me to look on there but I remembered back from when I applied to Northeastern (for my undergrad) that I found my acceptance just by randomly logging into ...

Just checked my online application for Northeastern....I am on the waitlist. Although it's not the news I wanted I am actually relieved and still trying to keep the faith! Congrats to everyone who have received acceptances!

choco80- just as HugANurse said, thanks for the reassurance! kind words always help especially in anxious times :) I wish you all the best as well! Good news about MGH, I live about 20 minutes away from the school and didn't get anything today so may...
