   Has any one received anything about financial aid? During the webinar they said they hoped to get it out end of last week/beginning of this

3. Columbia BSN/MSN ETP 2014

   torzorz replied to WavyGravy's topic in School, College Programs

   I don't think it's counter productive at all! It sounds like Columbia encourages students to take a year off between the BS and MS portions of the program. Getting experience is always a good thing -...

   Does anyone have details on scholarship applications? It looks like we're automatically in the running for PLUS just by submitting our FAFSAs and the Alumni scholarship hasn't opened yet. I can't tell...

   I've been doing some research on this and I believe in the US a BS (in nursing) and BSN are considered the same for hospitals with magnet status. It really just varies whether the school is just a...

   I expect Micro will help with Pathophys and Pharma some too. I am not looking forward to either of those classes and I'm glad I have Micro

    To jump on the DePaul bandwagon, I think the changes UIC is making after the 2014 cohort will mean the program is very similar to what DePaul and Rush offer. There's a push for generalist masters...

    I wonder if the earlier slots filled up first... It looked like that's what happened for the PNP sign ups. I'm hoping we hear back by end of next week. I'm very

    Are all decisions due May 1st? I thought you had three/four weeks from when you heard to accept/decline. I didn't realize there was an overall deadline
