  1. Grooming for male pre-nursing students

    I have long hair (about shoulder length), side burns and a goatee... so far it hasnt really been a problem. There was one clinical (OB) where I had to pull my hair back in order to be in compliance with hospital policy. I would say in general that ...
  2. Johanne, I chose NEU because I liked the idea of having a portion of the program dedicated to working as an RN prior to starting the specialty track. I also appreciated that they don't require students to officially declare your specialty until a ye...
  3. Hey Johanne - it's funny you asked me this today, because this morning I sent in my MGH letter withdrawing my acceptance. I had been sitting on the decision for a bit and went back and forth but decided on NEU. I applied for the child/adolescent ps...
  4. PsychLisa- Where did you find the national and regional (New England) rankings? Thank you!
  5. HugANurse87- For me, some of the big draws to NEU's program is that they have a portion of the program thats dedicated to you working and getting experience as an RN prior to starting your specialty track; they also don't require you to select a spec...
  6. Congrats Choco! I'm going to wait until next week when I receive my official offer from MGH to see if by some chance I might get some scholarship $. If not though, I will probably end up going to Northeastern. What about you?
  7. Congrats Jennahbee! I got an email as well this afternoon with an acceptance into MGH. They said a formal letter would follow.
  8. Congrats Ringside2005 & hs2011! amalay - My interview was also on friday the 18th.
  9. Thanks jennahbee. I submitted my application in November and I had my interview last Friday. I hope you hear back soon!
  10. Thank you! Yea, I was shocked...the program director called at 8:15pm (EST). The number didn't look familiar on my caller ID but it was so late I didn't think it could possibly be a school. I was totally surprised.
  11. Just received an acceptance call for NEU direct entry!
  12. NurseGradHopeful - Congratulations! I was wondering if the email you received came from a "bc.edu" address, or was it something different? I'm paranoid and keep checking my spam folder...paranoid... but mostly hoping I'll be surprised and find some...
  13. I just called MGH and asked when decisions would be going out and I was told that they would be sending them out the first week in March (through both e-mail and regular mail) I was really hoping to hear back sooner! Has anyone else heard differen...
  14. Choco80- Congratulations! Did the e-mail BC sent you tell you when you had to make a deposit by?
  15. Ringside- I missed my call too... they called back about 10 minutes later so hang in there! or keep calling :)
  16. NU just called, I have an interview scheduled for next Friday!
  17. Congrats NurseGrad and SaraNH!! From what I was told, interviews at NU were supposed to begin this week. I haven't heard anything on my end yet, has anyone else???
  18. Just called MGH school of nursing and they said we could expect to hear back the last week of February through the first week of March through both email and regular mail. Looks like we have a couple more weeks to go. The suspense is killing me.
  19. Just got off the phone with Boston College school of nursing. They told me that applicants will begin hearing back towards the end of February via e-mail.
  20. PsychLisa11: Good to hear about MGH. My top 2 choices would be MGH (because it's shorter and we get into the specialty portion quicker), and NU (because I think the co-op portion sounds awesome). I did my undergrad in Psychology and knew I either wa...
  21. Hey everyone! I was stoked to find this thread in allnurses, but now I cant stop checking it every few hours to see if anyone has any updates lol. I applied to the direct entry programs at NU, MGH, and BC. I spoke with the program director at NU l...
