PplCallMeHilary Hello I see you are starting next month at Loyola. I am as well and I look forward to meeting everyone. There is a Facebook page Loyola New Orleans BSN-DNP that you can join. It is not only people in the upcoming class but last years class also. I have learned so much just by chatting with them. Look forward to meeting you. Deidre

Welcome David and congrats to you!! We are all so excited and anxious to start. We have a group on Facebook named Loyola New Orleans BSN-DNP all classes. It is a closed group so you need to request to join. It is made up of Cohort #1 & Cohort #2( our group). The group before us are super nice and have given us a ton of info and/or just answered questions. Feel free to share the info with others in our class since there are only a few of us that have found the Facebook page.if you have trouble finding it just let me know. Deidre

I think it is a perfect time to go back to school. I just recently applied to a NP program and I am not currently employed due to a recent move with my spouse. I was accepted and start school this summer. For I think it is perfect because I can totally concentrate on school without having to worry about work. My program is a a DNP program and they encourage students not to work(at least full time) during the program. So go ahead and apply...you never know what they will say until you apply. Good Luck!!

Hello stutztootz congratulations to you as we'll. I have been looking online but not being from the area I don't know what is close and safe! I looked online at the school calendar and unless they change something the dates are May 6-9. If anyone knows a good place to stay or knows any other students that were admitted that could give us some insight let us know.

JayTee I'm in!!! Keep watching your email and hopefully you will get good news soon. Best of Luck to you and everyone waiting.

I'm in too!!! Super excited and I can't wait to meet everyone. The video was very cool!! :)

BORN_2BRN- I am at Fort Polk LA which is about 4 hours away. I just need to find a hotel. Motherofhen-since you are from the area can you recommend some places to stay that are fairly close to the school that are reasonably priced? I have never been to NO and I will be coming there alone...hubby has to stay home with my son who has school. We were going to have a little family vacation but with 3 weeks of school left for the year I don't want to take him out for a week since we moved here in the middle of the school year anyway.

I found the dates on the schools master calendar and I believe the times are 8-5. It's commencement weekend after orientation so I suspect that hotel prices will be up. If we should hear something after spring break, when is spring break?

Layna22 I just sent you a PM

JayTee No I'm still waiting. I hope we hear something soon. I guess I should block off early may for orientation(just in case)?? Hotels are probably high since that is also around the time for their commencement ceremony.

Not really. She said the faculty had to meet in the next few weeks to give their recommendations then we should hear something. She said once the final decisions were made they would send more info on orientation. I hope it's soon my stomach is all knots now. Are you on Facebook? You guys send me a friend request so we can chat and try to stay motivated till we hear something. Myfacebook I'd is Deidre Walker Turner.

Katiemadden.rn Welcome and congrats to you! I am waiting to hear if I have been accepted and the suspense is killing me!! I hope we find out soon. This will be such an exciting adventure.

Motherofhen Have you heard anything yet? Just wondering since you interviewed a little before me. Do we know how they notify us...email or letter?

BORN_2BRN The interview went well (in my opinion). It lasted about 20mins and she just asked me some basic questions like why did I choose this school, what I want to do with my degree, what did I think about the role of an FNP? Easy questions but nothing to really prepare for. She said the faculty has a meeting after all the interviews to submit their recommendations and it is there that decisions will b made. She did say she was not certain if the notice came in the mail only or if we would receive an email and a letter. So I guess I will continue to ruin my manicure while I wait for their response(about to pick up my old bad habit of nail biting ...hoping i will have enough fingerprints left to sign my except acceptance paperwork:nailbiting:)
