  1. Fall 2015 University of Minnesota Master of Nursing Applicants

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Great news! I forgot that I have my UMN email set up to come directly to my computer, so I don't usually distinguish between University email and standard

  2. Fall 2015 University of Minnesota Master of Nursing Applicants

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I feel much better now about all of this--the scheduler has been nothing but responsive to my emails and kind and helpful. Whew. I am hoping that my issues have mostly stemmed from emails going to the...

  3. Fall 2015 University of Minnesota Master of Nursing Applicants

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I got my registration info email today. I have to say, I'm pretty disappointed at how poor communication has been, and the way our schedules were determined. All the emails I have sent with my...

    It took a couple of weeks for mine to update as well, but it did eventually get put into the system and now I'm not getting reminder emails any longer (thank

    I got email confirmation that we will be getting checklist/welcome info after the upgrade is complete as well, so hopefully next week. Good to know about orientation,

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hmm. I wonder as well. I do wish I'd gotten email confirmation of the DNP intention to enroll letter, and I wish they were being a bit more forthcoming about how and when we can register for classes....

  7. Fall 2015 University of Minnesota Master of Nursing Applicants

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I haven't gotten a welcome email or confirmation of my intent to enroll to the DNP program in 2017, but my student record now states that my program of study is nursing and I've gotten two emails...

  8. Fall 2015 University of Minnesota Master of Nursing Applicants

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Congratulations, Mirounga! I only applied to the U of MN this cycle so there's no real decision for me to make (other than go/no go), but I certainly appreciate the appeal of getting to practice...

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I'm so sorry, maswrites. I was hoping for good news from you as well. I'd talked myself into thinking I wouldn't get a spot because I knew there were a lot of very promising direct admit applicants...

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Well, emails are out for the DNP for nurse-midwifery program as well. Seems I have a long and promising future at the U of MN! I'm very excited, and a bit

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thanks for the insight! I'm taking my last prerequisites at the U of MN this semester and my ID persisted, so I'm assuming it will continue on as well. I should have written down what was said about...

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    This is really helpful, thanks! I assumed I didn't get into the DNP part; I didn't actually ask about it (our house is in the middle of flooring replacement and with things so chaotic I haven't been...

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Seconding everything evyviggy said. I, too, think it likely has more to do with the group of people they are trying to put together than with a lack of ability or experience on the part of the...

  14. Fall 2015 University of Minnesota Master of Nursing Applicants

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I was also accepted to the MN program, though it looks like not for the subsequent DNP for nurse-midwifery program (that doesn't necessarily surprise me, as the interviewer said they can only take a...

  15. Fall 2015 University of Minnesota Master of Nursing Applicants

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I was told by my interviewer today that we should hear by the end of March or early April. I'm betting on early April, myself. I always feel as though there was so much I didn't get to say, and things...

    Hope everyone's interviews have been going well! Mine is tomorrow and I'm trying to stay calm and focused. Can't wait to hear results for all of us--fingers

    Well, some emails are out--I just got mine! I got an interview. :) Hope to hear more good news from everyone in this

    trauerweidchen replied to robo11's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I got the confirmation email too. Whew--I wasn't sure at first if it was an early notification that I wasn't getting an interview. Thanks for the tip, AlexisLehrer--I wasn't aware of the online...

    I did as well! I am starting to get nervous about interview dates and hoping that I make the

  20. Baystate Medical Center Midwifery Program

    trauerweidchen replied to BrittanyNicole90's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Thanks for chiming in! I'm starting to think none of these CNM programs actually have consistently good reviews and it's getting pretty frustrating, though I really appreciate your insights about OHSU...

  21. Baystate Medical Center Midwifery Program

    trauerweidchen replied to BrittanyNicole90's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    That may be true, but from what I hear a lot of hospitals are hiring BSNs over ADNs even though both are technically RNs, so it seems like a reasonable concern. I've been wondering why eastern Mass...

  22. BSN to CNM online.. where to start?

    trauerweidchen replied to RN_Private's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Sorry, realized you already were a RN and are getting your BSN--so you probably have the necessary experience already. Go for

  23. BSN to CNM online.. where to start?

    trauerweidchen replied to RN_Private's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Hi! You are on the right track--most CNM programs are Master's level training programs, though some take you straight to the DNP degree. The American College of Nurse Midwives (ACNM) is a great place...

  24. The route to take

    trauerweidchen replied to sophh's topic in General Nursing

    To further address your concern--I don't think you need a MSN to apply to most CNM programs, or at least not the ones I have considered; most seem to expect a BSN-RN to apply, though I realize this...

  25. The route to take

    trauerweidchen replied to sophh's topic in General Nursing

    Most CNM programs are Master's programs; some are DNP (doctor of nursing practice) programs but it seems to me most schools are still offering the MSN in Midwifery (or equivalent). So yes, you do need...
