    emara9 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    I just got into Columbia! Just MDE, not the DNP portion. I know we haven't heard back yet, and my heart has been set on UCSF this whole time, but I also wasn't really considering that I might ACTUALLY...

    Got into MDE, but not DNP. So relieved I have a for-sure option now I'm not super clear on how that works, but hopefully I can attend an info session! Anyone know what happens after the MDE only?...

    srittenh, I heard back from Northeastern last week, I actually have a phone interview with them tomorrow. But haven't heard anything from MGH or Seattle

    I have the next few days free as well... I'm keeping busy by salvaging some old furniture haha! Today's project is re-upholstering a bench seat. It's been a lifesaver keeping me off of my computer and...

    I think if you're a grad student, you don't have to include their info. I read that on the Columbia financial aid email, but I could be wrong. This stuff goes right over my head too. Is 24 the age...

    rj_gunner thanks so much for all the FAFSA info- I would have never done it by the deadline if you hadn't posted! Just finished it, feel so relieved now

    holahawaii, I bet we did have the same guys then! That's exactly what I had to do actually, I had to sit there and think for a bit before I could answer. And because I didn't have an immediate answer,...

    Yeah I totally understand what you mean. I was so nervous I felt like I was rambling and forgetting words at times... which freaks me out. But my interviewers were very conversational and relaxed, and...

    Thanks rj_gunner for the info! And oncRNwannabe, that may be why. I applied to the MDE/DNP. I hope so at least! I wouldn't worry too much, I really doubt it's an early sign of rejection. Either blame...

    rj_gunner- where are you seeing this Feb 15th deadline? In that financial aid email they said we would know decisions by the 15th, but they never said the FAFSA was due by then. On the FAFSA website,...

    Is FAFSA really due by the 15th?? Uh oh haha. I don't even know how it works... do we apply per

    emara9 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    Why are you fairly sure you didn't get in?? I felt good, but that really doesn't say anything. Who knows how my interview compared with the others :/ I also think I was the youngest in my group, which...

  15. UCSF MEPN 2016

    emara9 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    I feel pretty good about it. My interviewers were very nice and conversational and even asked me some personal questions that weren't on the list which showed some interest so that was great. I tried...

    emara9 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    I am getting so anxious about admissions decisions! I keep wanting to plan things like where I'd live, what I need to do to prepare, etc and we haven't even heard back yet hahaha. It's torture waiting...

    emara9 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks for the great info! UCSF also says you have to have a car, which I think is more doable than a car in NYC, but still a huge hassle and an expense I'd rather not deal with (just got rid of my...

    emara9 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm assuming we'd need a car for clinicals as well? Something that's also worrisome when living in such a huge city

    Good point. It's well worth it in the long run. I'll try not to think about how much of other people's money I'm borrowing in the

    emara9 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    Now that all of this is becoming real, I'm seriously starting to worry about how to afford a direct-entry program hahaha. Living expenses, school, and not working... I know I can figure it out, but I...

    Thanks to everyone for the encouragement, advice, and information about tomorrow... Practicing some tonight, but mainly going to try to relax. Been wearing myself out being touristy in SF so I will...

    emara9 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm in the same position, except from Texas. Didn't apply anywhere in TX, even though my undergrad school (UT Austin) has a great direct-entry program. I decided against UPenn after reading their...
