  1. questions for U of MD grad or student

    I graduated from UMD this past May. I was a Peace Corps volunteer in Nepal and was hoping to have some international or domestic volunteer experience while in nursing school. Although I didn't have...
  2. Questions for JHU students

    Hi MEO82, Well, there are several reasons why I decided not to do the CNL program after I had been accepted. 1. The CNL program was a brand new program that started the year that I applied. That...
  3. Questions for JHU students

    I would say it is not too difficult to get in the 3.0-3.3 range. If you want to get a 4.0, yes, you are going to have to study A LOT! Nursing school is A LOT of memorization and then applying that...
  4. Questions for JHU students

    Did I mention that I am in the traditional program? I am glad that I did that instead of the CNL program (the accelerated masters that replaced the accelerated BSN). I have been really impressed with...
  5. Questions for JHU students

    Hi! I see you are deciding between Hopkins and Maryland. I got accepted at both. They were the only two schools I applied to. I actually decided to go to Maryland because I could get the same quality...
  6. Thanks for the info! I wish UMD had explained it a little better in their acceptance letter. They were very vague in the description of the program and they made it sound like all you could do after...
  7. Work repayment programs

  10. Going to Hopkins in July! need some advice

    http://www.jhu.edu/gazette/ Check out this link. It is an internal Hopkins magazine that has posting for apartments and roommates by students and employees. Also, Canton, Fells Point, Bolton Hill,...
  11. The problem I found was that most Masters in Nurse Midwifery require you have a BSN to be considered for admissions, unless it is a direct entry program. I just don't want to pay for a masters I am...
  12. Hi SummitK2, I did only apply to the two programs because I have to stay in Baltimore. I have not had a chance to talk to Maryland yet since I got my letter last Friday night and immediately left for...
  13. I want to become a CNM, so I just don't see what good it would be to get two master's in nursing. Not to mention, from the research I did, it seems like a lot of employers prefer you to have a BSN...
  14. I just got my acceptance letter from the University of Maryland. I had applied to the accelerated BSN program, but got a letter that they have replaced the Accelerated BSN program with a master's...
  15. Hopkins vs. UMD

    Tamm1 - Did you apply to Maryland for Fall 2005? Have you heard from them yet? I called yesterday and they said that I would not get a letter until after April 1st. I sent my application in back in...
