  1. Certain about midwifery, uncertain about nursing

    Hi Lilacs, I was exactly in your place about a year ago when I was deciding where to go for school. I come from a liberal arts (anthropology and women's studies) background and am very opposed to the medical model of care on most fronts. I was really...
  2. Johns Hopkins University BSN/MSN Fall 2011

    Thanks Loraine! I applied for the midwifery specialty. I have accepted a spot at Seattle University's program, and would accept at two schools if I could! It was a tough decision, but best of luck to everyone waiting and with beginning the program!
  3. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    I went and visited this week and saw the lab it was amazing! And don't worry if I lived in the Seattle area I definitely would have taken a big break but my anatomy exam is at 8 am in Connecticut. :) I totally recommend going to see the school and th...
  4. Johns Hopkins University BSN/MSN Fall 2011

    Hi all, I got my call for the MSN portion yesterday, I'm in! But I've already accepted a spot at another ( much less expensive school) so hopefully it opens up a spot for someone waitlisted for ABSN/MSN! Best of luck to all!
  5. Vanderbilt Pre-specialty Fall 2011

    I don't think you can pm (send or receive) until you have 15 posts, but its nothing bad about the program, so I don't mind posting here. It's simply not the right fit for me. I got the feeling that the program, and Vanderbilt, as a medical facility, ...
  6. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Well, I went and visited Vanderbilt this weekend, and they made my decision super-easy. It's officially Seattle for me! I'm so excited! I'll be moving cross-country, and will definitely be looking for roommates, so if anyone's interested in looking ...
  7. Vanderbilt Pre-specialty Fall 2011

    Hi all, I attended the open house this weekend, and while Vandy has a very impressive program, it's just not the right fit for me. I'll be turing down my spot for one at Seattle U's midwifery program, so hopefully someone on the waitlist gets my spot...

    Yes I'm actually waiting for my connecting flight at the Cincinnati airport as I type this! Hope to see you tomorrow!
  9. Johns Hopkins University BSN/MSN Fall 2011

    I haven't heard about MSN, but have been accepted to two other BSN/MSN programs and am pretty ready to commit to one of those. Best of luck to everyone at hopkins!
  10. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    For those accepted, I was on the phone with the nursing department today and there is going to be an accepted students open house on March 17th! Unfortunately its on a Thursday night...and I have an anatomy exam the next day, but more info will be go...

    Kate, I'm midwifery too!
  12. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    I agree, there's no way only two of us received that e-mail because we are the only two admitted. My status was one of the first to change AND I interviewed on Feb. 1st. And it would take one hell of a dedicated admissions officer to go in at 7 a.m. ...
  13. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Its incredibly strange. It came from grad admissions though. I'm sure it was automated. And I'm midwifery, and I think flaneur is AGNP. I would call but I'll have to wait till noon tomorrow I guess. I'll let you know what I find out, and best of luc...
  14. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Did anyone else just get an e-mail from grad admissions that says: "Please take a few minutes to complete our Admitted Graduate Student Survey by clicking here. We hope to learn more about you and what factors inform your decision to accept or declin...
  15. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    I "third" the words of encouragement to jbsu, and a huge congratulations to vmae99!!! All of these programs are incredibly competitive, and I feel like there's lots of switching around before programs start and waitlisters make it in all the time! I ...
  16. Vanderbilt Prespecialty 2011 Accepted Forum

    Kate what specialty are you? And tgill I definitely will! Those things are basically going to be the most important things for me to look at, as I can only go to Nashville once before having to make my decision. I'm so excited to see the city and the...
  17. Vanderbilt Prespecialty 2011 Accepted Forum

    I'm in Connecticut, so a slightly shorter flight! :) See you there!
  18. Vanderbilt Prespecialty 2011 Accepted Forum

    My name's Michelle too! I'm doing the midwifery specialty I just talked to admissions about their open house, and they said that its definitely appropriate for admitted students to go. I'm booking my flight as we speak!
  19. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Maybe they're just doing it to **** with us I can see them all sitting around in the graduate admissions office saying, "Ok, Larry, you're going to tell them they've been sent, Susan, you're 'they're still working on it' and Jim, well, you tell 'em ...
  20. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Just talked to admissions because I'm trying to figure out how to visit if I'm accepted (My spring break starts next week and its the only time I could visit...air fare is going to be pricey at this point). I was hoping for a little shred of informa...
  21. Vanderbilt Pre-specialty Fall 2011

    I feel silly...the mail just hadn't come before I left for class. Just got home with a lovely letter of acceptance for the CNM program!!! So happy, and visiting over spring break. Anyone from the Nashville area have any suggestions of what to do/see...

    UGH. Still nothing in CT.
  24. Johns Hopkins University BSN/MSN Fall 2011

    anyone who got accepted regular decision accelerated also hear about their MSN specialty yet?
  25. Vanderbilt Pre-specialty Fall 2011

    I know, right? I think its exciting though...and hopefully the odds work in our favor. Still nothing in my mail, but I live in Norwestern Connecticut, so maybe tomorrow. That's good to know about Seattle's cohort too (I applied there as well). I aske...
