   Direct Entry MSN 2020 at Columbia University

   Thanks! Do you happen to know (or anyone) what the estimated total cost is for the 15 months? Not just the tuition, but for everything? First year is $132K but I don't know about the other 3 months.. Also, is anyone else apprehensive that we will indeed begin in June? I know they sent out an email telling us they anticipated continuing with that time frame, but I'm still not convinced. If anyone else has some insight on this, please share! In the meantime, be safe everyone.

   I wasn’t there on Newly Admitted Students Day. Does anyone know the full price of the program? I just know the first year is $132K. and when would we hear back about housing?

   UPENN BSN MSN 2020

   I don’t remember, but it was still a lot and I don’t consider loans “scholarships”. I’m not sure where I’m going. I was hoping Hopkins but I didn’t receive nearly as much in scholarships so again, it’d be tough financially. I am thinking Columbia because of the accelerated aspect. I loved Yales program but didn’t receive any financial aid and it was a three year program.

   Honestly, I got a $60K scholarship and felt like I couldn’t afford it. Sadly, I declined the offer today

   I had a question since I am still waiting on another school to respond. If we put down the deposit but decide to go to another school, the entire $500 is non-refundable, right?

   UCLA MECN Fall 2020

   mrisajne replied to ChelsRN26's topic in School Programs

   Unfortunately no. Ugh, I’m going crazy over here and it’s unreal that even my sister can’t find it from her computer. Is it safe to say that I can take this as a rejection? It seems like everyone was already accepted or waitlisted..

    I also was fortunate to have received the honors scholarship this morning. Yes I did get an email telling me there was an update to my account. I believe future notifications will present as another link above the one with the letter of acceptance. This was the only one I got, but I made a mistake on my FASFA and therefore didn’t get it in before the 12/15 deadline so don’t know if this is the extent to my financial aid. Hope this helps!

    Hey there guys! Congratulations to all that got accepted! I was wondering if anyone has made a Facebook page yet or did I just miss that in the posts?

    Justifying the cost of an Ivy League Nursing Education

    mrisajne replied to Barbiegirl1229's topic in General Students

    Thank you so much for very detailed post! I also was accepted to both Hopkins and UCLA in 2016 and it ended up being cheaper for me to go to Hopkins as well. Unfortunately, I didn't end up going to either and repeated the application process for the upcoming 2020 class. So far, I have been accepted to both Yale and Columbia, two exceptional but very expensive schools (haven't gotten my financial aid packages yet). I am still waiting to hear back from Penn, Hopkins and yes, UCLA. I don't know about Penn, but Hopkins gives out a ton of money, UCLA? Not so much. I definitely have some decisions to make and can't deny that the financial prospects will not heavily influence my choice. I understand that the school name may help get you the interview, but at what point does it truly matter? And to clarify, I am applying for a Master's program (Yale and Penn would be a Masters/NP program) and do plan to pursue a DNP or CRNA program after a few years. Would a great school (like UCLA) have less persuasive powers than an Ivy League name? I am genuinely curious to your perspective, and anyone's else that has one! I honestly would love to hear it.

    is it first come, first serve (via application of course), or should we only apply after we have submitted our agreement to attend on our end?

    I was told that we would hear back by the beginning of March, though this might have just been the "latest" we'd hear back..

    I would be very open that, in fact, I was hoping to find a roommate to help cut the expenses.
