  1. 2013 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

    I'm really excited to hear how it goes! Please keep us updated. Sometimes I wish I didn't live in the south, where I'm so isolated from these programs! I never get to visit or anything like
  2. Direct Entry MSN Programs 2013

    And a CNS is different from an NP, which is also something to keep in mind. A bit of news to share... I received word that I could interview for Johns Hopkins earlier this week. I'm VERY excited, but...
  3. Direct Entry MSN Programs 2013

    I hope I don't have to reapply either, because it really is expensive and tedious... but I just need to have faith that everything will work out how its meant to be and that I will be led to the right...
  4. 2013 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

    Yes, please let us know how the info session goes! I would love to hear. I actually didn't check the PDF, I just went through and made sure I answered all of the questions. They should be emailing us...
  5. Direct Entry MSN Programs 2013

    Well, it isn't so much that I'm using NYU as a backup plan, but more so that their application isn't due until March 1st and we will have heard from most of the schools that we've already applied to...
  6. 2013 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

    I wrote in the essays, and I attached a resume. I used the essays to go into great detail about what exactly I did that was included on my
  7. 2013 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

    No, they didn't really say, to be honest. I have no idea why the cost is so high. A lot of ABSN programs are costly because they're at private schools, so tuition is more expensive and then you're...

    morganw, I scored exactly the same as you on my GRE, and I'm in the same boat pretty much... and I asked in the online chat what Penn thought of this and they said that while the GRE is something they...
  9. 2013 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

    I think the cost was well over $120,000... The BSN portion alone was like, $80 or $90k from what I remember from the chat. However, I'm not sure exactly how much for the entire
  10. Direct Entry MSN Programs 2013

    the healers art, your GRE score is great! I wouldn't worry about it. I believe that the personal statements are most important as well. This is where they get a good idea of who you are and what you...
  11. Direct Entry MSN Programs 2013

    Okay, I'm starting to panic now. I wish it didn't take so long to hear back from places! This is so scary! I guess it's scary because I have no idea where I'll be living at this time next year, and I...
  12. Direct entry prerequisites

    Taking classes at a community college will not matter at all. I've seen lots of threads on here where people have taken their classes at a CC after they graduated and they received admission. There's...
  13. 2013 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

    I'm guessing the deadline would be 11:59 on October 15th, but that isn't something that I'm certain of, to be honest. I think a faculty advisor would certainly be considered academic! They know you in...
  14. Some thoughts on DE program admissions

    I would be curious to hear which program,
  15. Not much advice to offer, but I'm currently applying to schools and I am in a similar boat as you with regards to age and experience. With your grades and extracurricular experience, I think your...

    It's official... every transcript I've sent out as of now has been received! I'm so happy I could cry! My things were received in Philadelphia a few days after the 25th, and I sent out my transcripts...

    I don't think you're required to answer it... I would just leave it blank,
  18. Marquette University MSN Direct Entry Fall 2013

    I am the same way, in regards to getting stressed, but I can't help but read! I'm addicted. Whenever I get an email update from the site, I get so excited, haha! NYU has what is called a dual degree...
  19. How did you decide?

    I am currently in the application process, and I picked the schools I'm applying to based on a few different criteria.. 1. Location: Where the school was located was important to me. I preferred a...
  20. 2013 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

    I had mine at 12pt, but if yours is at 11pt, I sincerely doubt it would be an issue. However, I think it may be wiser to just make it 12pt, mess around with the margins, and maybe go a little over 2...
  21. Direct Entry MSN Programs 2013

    Thanks morganw. I'm hoping to get my transcripts resent tomorrow from the post office in my hometown (I'm visiting this weekend). It's definitely expensive and a painstaking process.. here's hoping it...

  24. chances of getting in?

    What specialty are you interested in? Columbia, NYU, and Emory all have programs, also. It's hard to say what your exact chances are, but there are going to be people with overall GPAs of 3.5 and...

    I paid for certified mail when I sent my transcripts and whatnot to Penn... the tracking STILL says its in a sorting facility and that the expected delivery was yesterday. But if its still in a...
