Hi jordans, My general advice would be for the goal statement briefly explain why you want to be your chosen specialty NP. You could talk about what specific population you want to work with or what part of country/world, and how your chosen special...

About the shoe requirements: are crocs allowed as long as there are no holes in them? Do we need shoes right away or not till later in the semester when we start clinical? Thanks!

Did they give information about clinical faculty to student ratios and number of total number of clinical hours for pre-RN and specialty portions of the program?

Hi Jon, Have you decided between Yale and Vanderbilt? I am also debating between these two but for the FNP specialty.

OPUS will not let me view my financial aid. It says that aid may currently be in process or that my file may be incomplete. I have three prerequisites that are incomplete...I'm not sure if that counts as an incomplete file for viewing aid. For tho...

Hi kd23. Congratulations! I am not able to attend the admitted students day on Saturday, so please post about it afterwards to let us know what happened, what they talked about, and what you thought of it. Thanks!

I also posted this on the Boston Direct Entry page, so sorry if it is repetitive. Are there any current MGH students out there who could give me some general information about the program? Some of my questions include: Are most of the MGH students f...

Are there any current MGH students out there who could give me some general information about the program? Some of my questions include: Are most of the MGH students from the Boston area or are they from all over the country? Are the all the clinic...

I just got an e-mail from MGH, around noon. So for those of you who haven't heard, they are still sending the e-mails out.

To any current students: I know Vanderbilt does not encourage working during the specialty year, but I noticed that for the first semester (at least for FNP curriculum), there are no clinical rotations. Does anyone work part-time as an RN during tha...

I talked to the FNP director about the specialty year clinical locations and I got the impression that they would probably not be right in downtown Nashville because there isn't enough available, but they would be in neighboring towns and sometimes u...

Thank you for your answers to my questions and advice both Meredith and mammac5! Is there anything you wish you knew about Vanderbilt's nursing program going into it? Are you happy with your decision to go there?

I'm interested in the facebook group. Is this for second degree bsn? My e-mail is [email protected]. Thanks!

Hi Meredith, I was at the open house last Saturday. Thank you for being there to answer our questions! I have a couple of questions that I thought of later that I would like to ask you. As a graduate nursing student, would we have access to all of...

sgmaygeorge: If you don't mind sharing, what else did the current student have to say about the program?

icontainmultitudes: You said you went to the MGH information session recently. Do you mind giving me a general summary of the session? What did you think of the program? Was there anything unique about it or that really stood out to you? How affi...

Thanks, Pam. It is great to hear your perspective. With four different interview days, we easily could have heard different student panels and come away with different perspectives. There were also several cases were someone asked the student pane...

Hi Nikki, I saw your posts on the yale gepn forum too, so I am wondering if you are deciding between yale and vanderbilt and what your thoughts are. I have visited both schools and really liked them both. They are very different is some respects, b...

Does anyone have any misgivings about the GEPN program? I do think Yale has a great program, there were a few things that bothered me when I went for the interview and I am just wondering if anyone has different perspectives. For one, there are no p...

I'm deciding between Yale, Vanderbilt and Emory...all great schools but with different program formats. Is anyone deciding between these schools and have any thoughts?

Abby, I know it has been a while since you posted this, but in my search for information I came across your post about deciding between Yale, Vanderbilt, and Emory. I am currently deciding between these same schools and I am wondering where you deci...
