  1. Vanderbilt University PMHNP Fall 2024

    kcheck5 replied to Kela Morris's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I had peers in my cohort from off the waitlist! Usually by the admitting deadline, if people do not commit to Vandy, then they go off the waitlist for as many spots are available. You could maybe ask...

  2. Vanderbilt University PMHNP Fall 2024

    kcheck5 replied to Kela Morris's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I thoroughly enjoyed my program. Depends on the kind of person you are toward your education, I think. Obviously I think applying and getting into Vanderbilt shows you are highly motivated anyway, but...

  3. Vanderbilt University PMHNP Fall 2024

    kcheck5 replied to Kela Morris's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Wow! That is super nice they get you guys a response before Winter break. Waiting til mid Feb for me just two years ago was brutal LOL! Congrats to all! If you need an alumni mentor (for AGPC),...

  4. Vanderbilt University PMHNP Fall 2024

    kcheck5 replied to Kela Morris's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I just graduated from the VUSN AGPCNP program, but as far as the general application process goes - you should hear from financial aid in January or from admissions about generic admissions things. My...

  5. Vanderbilt University Fall 2024 FNP

    kcheck5 replied to jesslauren310's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I can't speak on FNP, but as a whole Vanderbilt has a great program. I got a lot out of it. I did AGPC. One of my preceptors was actually an FNP alum from VUSN. While the academic work can be...

  6. Vanderbilt University Fall 2024 FNP

    kcheck5 replied to jesslauren310's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    What do you want to know? Timelines? I just graduated. When I applied and most cohorts after me, people found out about mid Feb. My date was Feb 15 and found out about 11am. Or at least that's...

  7. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty MSN 2023

    kcheck5 replied to Alex5468's topic in School, College Programs

    Airbnbs and VRBOs are homes, condos and apartments to rent as places to stay when traveling ? I stay at a place with a couple other friends and classmates. We just walk to campus and...

  10. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty MSN 2023

    kcheck5 replied to Alex5468's topic in School, College Programs

    I love adults/geriatrics, so for me, I think the program is a really great fit. Each faculty member has their niche within AGPC and all have their DNPs and are currently practicing. They’re...

  11. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty MSN 2023

    kcheck5 replied to Alex5468's topic in School, College Programs

    Maybe I was an outlier, but I had a 2.99 GPA in my undergrad, 3.0 in my ADN and a 3.9 in my RN to BSN but a majority of my undergraduate years were definitely less than the lowest GPA on the VUSN...

    kcheck5 replied to Alex5468's topic in School, College Programs

    $500! It goes toward tuition. For prior app cycles, they let us have until like March 28 I think for commitment responses. Other programs I know are DNP length. Although there are rumors Vandy is...

    kcheck5 replied to jbail113's topic in School, College Programs

    There are about six or seven of us in AGPCNP who are PT, but it’s a mix of 2 year and 3 year part timers I think. The 3 year folks are those who work for

    kcheck5 replied to tarheelnurse95's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    kcheck5 replied to tarheelnurse95's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I can speak from the part time, distance AGPCNP program! I work full time, chose to do part-time due to not totally being in a rush. Also I have kids and felt the need to still work. I will cut back...

    kcheck5 replied to Guest1148094's topic in School, College Programs

    I think you have really good chances!! I am in a part time specialty program for AGPCNP and have been a nurse for 4.5 years. My GPA was not stellar, but I will say VUSN does a very holistic review of...

    kcheck5 replied to princesax11's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I applied to one in 2018, paused for a year, then applied to three in 2020-2021 app year. I have a 2.99 undergrad GPA, 3.1 ADN GPA, a 3.9 BSN GPA from a brick and mortar that had on campus meet ups...
