  1. Frontier Midwifery Program

    Frontier may be very easy to get into, but finding midwives in your area who are willing to preceptor you is completely your responsibility (and incredibly difficult!) I've heard of several students...

  3. Hello all! After a year of applications, fees, GREs, interviews, waiting, compulsive email checking, prayers, tears, and then happier tears, I was accepted and am finally starting my CNM program this...

  5. CNM Salaries

    Oh my goodness, this makes me so angry! How can CNMs be so poorly compensated for the work they're doing/hours they're putting in/results they're producing? Am I reading that link wrong? How do...
  6. How do you get over feeling like you'll pass out

    I think it's very important to remember that there are TONS of opportunities in nursing, and if nosebleeds or childbirth or surgery aren't your thing, then you can always choose to pursue another...
  7. Advice for the Student Nurse Midwife

    Thank you CNMBFA! How did you go about managing your time well? Was it a matter of finding balance between study and the clinical hours? Do you have any favorite journals that you keep up with/find...
  8. Advice for the Student Nurse Midwife

    Thank you LibraSun, I am lucky that I will not have to work through my program (they pretty much told us to forget about it anyway). You mention your peers "phoning in" the classwork. Was that...
  9. Just curious, why don't they accept North Carolina students? Is there something different about the education/clinicals? You mention Vanderbilt also not accepting NC students? I hadn't heard of that...

  14. UCSF WHN/CNM or AGNP - I'm Torn

    Hi, I don't have an answer to your questions specifically, but I would 1000% encourage you to shadow actual CNMs/WHNPs/AGPCNPs and not make your decision based off the responses you receive here....
  15. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    Hi Rawz, how long have you been a nurse? It tends to be a rule of thumb that the more experience you have/years working, the less important your GPA is. So, five years of experience will have them...
  16. Vanderbilt MSN 2015

    I think you're also helped if one of your peers doesn't pass a class/cannot continue onto the specialty year. I have heard cases of people being allowed to switch, and people being told they can't....

    When were you notified wanderlust? I bet you were more composed on the phone than I was when they called

  21. UCSF MSN 2015

    Nope, sorry. I'm worried about housing and affordability also. What have you found out so
  22. UCSF MSN 2015

    Bizarre! I thought that they interviewed everyone, but obviously I'm wrong. That has just been my experience with other schools at least. Maybe when they're sorting applications they have three...
  23. UCSF MSN 2015

    Hi everyone! I can't believe I didn't find this thread until now (and I've been looking, I promise!) I applied to the CNM/WHNP tract this year (for the first time) and haven't heard back yet. I...

  25. Yale 2015

    Thanks for letting us know Julia. I figured it was either a professor or a student based on the tone of the email. Very sad. Good to know the community is so supportive and tight-knit though. Let me...
