  1. University of Rochester ABPNN May 2015

    snoozyd replied to allylyn's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I emailed Nancy today asking if she's got any updates for AMPNN interviews or any info that might be helpful. She said she's waiting for my initial interview note (that was two weeks ago! what the...

  2. Yale 2015

    snoozyd replied to BellyfullBirth's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Ooh good thing I check this page! Thanks for the links. I'll wrap up my snow day with some financial aid

  3. Yale 2015

    snoozyd replied to BellyfullBirth's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I didn't think we'd get any of the Yale-specific financial aid stuff until decisions were

  4. Columbia ETP 2015

    snoozyd replied to allisonnn's topic in School, College Programs

    I re-read it for my interviews. I did the same, though, I worked on it for months so by the end I was completely blind to the content. It's not the worst thing I've ever written but it feels like it's...

  5. Columbia ETP 2015

    snoozyd replied to allisonnn's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm pretty excited! It's been hard to stay distracted throughout the wait but it feels even more difficult as we inch towards decision days. I think I'm all done with my interviews so now I have...

  6. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    snoozyd replied to BHART25's topic in School, College Programs

    I didn't realize the program was 2 years. Is anyone else wary of this? I guess that's how they really push the DNP bridge, but if I weren't to do the DNP would I really be well prepared with only 1...

  7. University of Rochester ABPNN May 2015

    snoozyd replied to allylyn's topic in Post Graduate Students

    When I did my first interview last week they said they'd be doing the masters interviews "soon." Not sure what sort of timeframe that indicates - probably means it's about time to follow up with them....

  8. Yale 2015

    snoozyd replied to BellyfullBirth's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I will say a few people seemed a bit UNDERdressed today. But same scene - lots of suits, some colorful dresses. I was surprised by a few people in kinda rough-looking cardigans. I second what people...

  9. MGH IHP Direct Entry NP 2015

    snoozyd replied to snoozyd's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Nice! Thanks for the insider scoop I planned a vacation for early February partly to distract myself from admissions stuff, but now it looks like it could be a good time to either celebrate...

  10. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    snoozyd replied to BHART25's topic in School, College Programs

    That actually seems like a LOT compared to the program I'm interviewing at tomorrow. Yale accepts maybe 20 people per specialty. I spoke to someone who recently finished their PMHNP program and there...

  11. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    snoozyd replied to BHART25's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks for posting the numbers but I'm taken aback by the psych numbers as compared to some other specialties. Is this the overall student enrollment, or just for newly enrolled/admitted students in...

  12. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    snoozyd replied to BHART25's topic in School, College Programs

    I've been enjoying the faces of my friends and colleagues when I told them I got into Vanderbilt. "You? Down SOUTH? Ehhh. I can't imagine that." Even with that, I'm still excited to think about...

  13. Columbia ETP 2015

    snoozyd replied to allisonnn's topic in School, College Programs

    Oops, sorry, no, that's my deadline to get back to another school. I don't feel like putting down a deposit for a school I'm not sure of, so I'm hopeful we will hear by the

  14. Yale 2015

    snoozyd replied to BellyfullBirth's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I've got nothing against hints BUT i imagine the questions are specific to the interviewer as well as the specialty. Old threads made it sound like it was more conversational than sticking to any sort...

  15. Columbia ETP 2015

    snoozyd replied to allisonnn's topic in School, College Programs

    We'll see if they're nice enough to grant it. I feel bad for the people who were informed in December, their deadline is coming up in a matter of days. Hopefully Columbia gets back to us by the 12th...

  16. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    snoozyd replied to BHART25's topic in School, College Programs

    Magoosh's math videos were super helpful for me! For math, skip the hard ones and do what you can with the rest. It's about your ability to quickly assess data, not your number crunching talents. Know...

  17. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    snoozyd replied to BHART25's topic in School, College Programs

    HAHAHAH you are well-suited to psych, it seems. I only had ONE situation ever surprise me - when a patient started a fire. It required such an amazing amount of concentration and creativity. I never...

  18. MGH IHP Direct Entry NP 2015

    snoozyd replied to snoozyd's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Did you get your financial aid packet from Vandy? Still waiting on mine From what I understand, MGH's financial aid is pretty weak. It might only be worth it if you're one of the few that nabs a...

  19. Columbia ETP 2015

    snoozyd replied to allisonnn's topic in School, College Programs

    I think it's about a month? They notify in February, have an accepted students day sometime in March, so I think the deadline is probably a month after the day they release decisions. I have to haggle...

  20. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    snoozyd replied to BHART25's topic in School, College Programs

    Did anyone have any success getting an extension on the deposit deadline? I need to call them today but was wondering what kind of extra time folks may have gotten. I'm hoping to have heard from all...

  21. Columbia ETP 2015

    snoozyd replied to allisonnn's topic in School, College Programs

    For Boston schools, I only applied to MGHIHP, I wouldn't have had any of the other schools' pre-reqs done in time. If I didn't get in anywhere this cycle I'd apply to BC for next year. I know a lot of...

  22. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    snoozyd replied to BHART25's topic in School, College Programs

    Sheesh! At the very least you know they're still filling spots...at a snail's pace. And at weird times - we know they work on holidays and weekends now! I wonder if the FNP admissions committee has...

  23. Non-psych nurses as CRNP-PMH

    snoozyd replied to Jules A's topic in Psychiatric

    I definitely get that. Most programs I've applied to indicate their students work on units at least through the master's portion. Some stay on as RNs and ease into an NP role - I've known folks that...

  24. Non-psych nurses as CRNP-PMH

    snoozyd replied to Jules A's topic in Psychiatric

    I'm one of the direct-entry NP applicants AllNurses seems to hate. But the reasons cited in this thread are exactly why I'm going straight for advanced practice. I've worked on an inpatient psych unit...

  25. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    snoozyd replied to BHART25's topic in School, College Programs

    Check airbnb. That's how I booked a room for my upcoming Yale interview (for $50+ less than the hotel they suggested) and I imagine I'll be using it for any school
