  1. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    Yale's ranking went a bit down in midwifery, but 3 to 5 is no big deal :) I'm still incredibly excited! I'm signing the Columbia rejection
  2. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    Though, either way, the actual distinction seems a bit moot. Most of the other programs people are considering aren't in CT anyway. Therefore, some definitely will find it a downside that they have to...
  3. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    This is what the CT licensure requirement says: The minimum length of the nursing component of the program must be equivalent to four (4) fifteen (15) week academic semesters and contain a minimum of...

    Last year's start date was September 1 for classes and August 23-25 for Orientation. Not sure about the exact dates for this
  5. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    Hmm you might be right, that's definitely what it looks like from that. Thats just what I was told on interview day. Maybe cuz their MEIN program is 45 credits and the GEPN year is only 40 credits?...
  6. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    Oooh, I should also mention that the reason you can't get the RN license at the end of the GEPN year is because CT requires RN's to have 4 semesters of education before they can sit for the NCLEX....
  7. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    Of course!! And I do think some of your concerns are valid, especially the ones that sgmaygeorge pointed out about a later RN license. Still, I think there isn't a single program that doesn't have...

    Hey Tanya! Facebook is blocked at my work but I'll definitely join the group as soon as I get home, haha. I'm not too thrilled with OHSU because they seem incredibly nonresponsive with prospective...
  9. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    They said the reason they don't have prerequisites is because people oftentimes don't remember the information they even learned in the pre-reqs to begin with. What you really need to know about the...

    At the interview day, a lot of students suggested east rock and wooster square as places to

    I cried too! She was like "Oh no don't do cry!"
  15. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

  16. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    That's right! Happy Birthday amalay! We're all on pins and needles with you...I'm freaking out at work right now, staring incessantly at my phone. I hope your birthday present works out
  17. OHSU Accelerated Bachelors to Masters 2011

    I still haven't heard anything either. I definitely don't think they already contacted everyone who was accepted yet. We'll
  18. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    In the info session with the Midwifery program director they said that every year they added a couple students who already have their RN (2-4). However, since you already have your RN you wouldn't be...
  19. Columbia University ETP 2011

    I'm from San Diego (as are some others here). If I decide on Columbia it will be quite the move
  20. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    Hey Tanya! Ya I did get in to Columbia. I haven't heard back about OHSU (even though some people have) or from JHU...so that's killer. I definitely agree that there are a lot of us from SD - at my...
  21. Johns Hopkins University BSN/MSN Fall 2011

    I still haven't heard yet either. I do think there are quite a few of us...and annoyingly I left my phone home today! I'm really anxious
  22. Columbia University ETP 2011

    Hi! I'm thinking of commuting from Stamford as well. Are you able to do that commute in an hour and fifteen even early in the morning when you need to get to school or clinical at 7 or 8? Thanks
  23. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    maybe, but when i emailed sandra to ask this is what she replied: the committee on admissions will make final decisions on the 23rd of february, letters will be mailed the beginning of the...
  24. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    Hey Tanya, I've seen that you live in San Diego? I do too! I also sit in front of a computer all day for my job. I'm so distracted by this waiting...Seems like we've applied to a ton of the same...
  25. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    Eh...Sandra has said to multiple people, myself included that they plan on mailing letters out next week. It's really annoying and unfortunate but I'm pretty sure that's what they plan on doing....
