  1. Vanderbilt MSN 2019

    Polly Peptide replied to LCSWtoPMHNP's topic in Post Graduate Students

    It depends on whether they had enough quality applicants to fill their class who applied by the deadline. If they did, you may still hear from them and be wait-listed. Essentially, it is my...

  2. Vanderbilt MSN 2019

    Polly Peptide replied to LCSWtoPMHNP's topic in Post Graduate Students

    ? I didn't know anyone was double the price of

  3. FNP Duke, BSN- MSN/DNP Fall 2019

    Polly Peptide replied to LindaRN01's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hmm. I applied to the FNP track, MSN only. I applied a little late in the process, but only after I received an email from them saying it wasn't too late and to please finish my application. I got...

  4. Vanderbilt MSN 2019

    Polly Peptide replied to LCSWtoPMHNP's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I can't confirm that it's $7,000, but if I recall, it is awarded upon admission. Either that or closely on the heels of

  5. Vanderbilt MSN 2019

    Polly Peptide replied to LCSWtoPMHNP's topic in Post Graduate Students

    You do not have to apply separately. It's a basic amount they give due to the general cost of the

  6. FNPagnpFNPFNP....no it's AGNP

    Polly Peptide replied to GraceOnly's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Maybe they are thinking of the old ANP certification when saying this stuff? Honestly...I have to say I don't totally understand the thinking behind the consensus model decision to keep the FNP cert...

  7. FNP Duke, BSN- MSN/DNP Fall 2019

    Polly Peptide replied to LindaRN01's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I applied to their MSN. Wonder when they make

  8. Vanderbilt MSN 2019

    Polly Peptide replied to LCSWtoPMHNP's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Interviewing "to augment a mostly-made decision" seems sensible. I would expect they choose to interview those people who look like good candidates on paper, simply to ensure that they sound...

  9. Vanderbilt MSN 2019

    Polly Peptide replied to LCSWtoPMHNP's topic in Post Graduate Students

    It's my understanding that only CNM and PMHNP do interviews. In previous years it was the 2nd or 3rd week of Feb. So I am guessing 2/15 or

  10. NP Salaries

    Polly Peptide replied to TamTamRNBSN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am interested in Palliative Care. What is your actual certification? FNP? Adult? Acute

  12. Unimpressed and confused

    Polly Peptide posted a topic in General Students

    I could use some advice. I am coming up on my last semester of an ABSN program. This is my second career and I am in nursing after *thinking* I wanted to do this most of my life. My intention has...

  13. online RN to MSN with bachelor's in another field

    Polly Peptide replied to Mogol's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I could be wrong, but from what you're saying, it doesn't sound like that path (BSN, then MSN) would be very efficient. If you already have your RN with an associates (I'm assuming) AND you have your...

  14. Unimpressed and confused

    Polly Peptide replied to Polly Peptide's topic in General Students

    Thank you. I changed my user name recently (as my previous one was a bit too close to my real name) and then I realized the website wouldn't let me change my name again within a certain amount of...

  15. online RN to MSN with bachelor's in another field

    Polly Peptide replied to Mogol's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Just off the top of my head, I am pretty sure Frontier offers an associates/RN to MSN. Also, Vanderbilt offers a path for associates/RN to MSN AND bachelors in another field to MSN. But the latter...

  16. online RN to MSN with bachelor's in another field

    Polly Peptide replied to Mogol's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Just to make sure I'm answering the right question - are you currently a nurse or

  17. VENT- Entitlement gone amok

    Polly Peptide replied to AngelfireRN's topic in Advanced Practice

    Just a thought, because I don't know what is required (or if there are even "rules" around this since you own your own clinic), but... Could you represent your hours as, say, 8:00 to 11:30, closed for...

  18. Vanderbilt Nurse Residency Winter 2019

    Polly Peptide replied to ReconMedic's topic in Nursing Career

    I know this thread hasn't had much activity lately, but I was wondering if anyone could comment on whether they've been hired for a day shift, and if so, what area? I am considering applying to...

  19. New Grad Terrified of Choosing Wrong Job

    Polly Peptide replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    Many residency contracts require two years as a FT nurse within their hospital (or network of hospitals); but they do not require you to stay within the same unit the entire time. Most will allow a...

  20. NP Salaries

    Polly Peptide replied to TamTamRNBSN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I personally think it would be helpful if people would add what general area of the country they live in, if the OP agrees. It gives weight/relevance to salary

  21. Vanderbilt - have they stopped securing preceptors, too?

    Polly Peptide posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Can anyone with experience with Vanderbilt clarify their clinical placement process? I believe they have always secured clinical sites for their students, but I just received some disconcerting...

  22. Vanderbilt - have they stopped securing preceptors, too?

    Polly Peptide replied to Polly Peptide's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thank you very much. Do you know anything about FNP? Placements within 2 hours don't scare me...I've driven an hour for my BSN clinicals. But it still sounds like they are placing you. So what am I...

  23. Shockingly low NP pay !

    Polly Peptide replied to Jm0136's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm starting to wonder if this whole 'find your own preceptor' thing is one way of trying to reduce supply. Or maybe it's just happened naturally, I'm not sure. But there are TONS (scientific word)...

  24. Vanderbilt ACNP

    Polly Peptide replied to Telenurse1990's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I just posted my own question about this bc I got a weird answer from the admissions office in this regard. They also referred me to their website, which was just as vague as their answer. I can...

  25. New grad RN jobs best during NP program

    Polly Peptide posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am currently getting my BSN and considering going straight into an MSN program for my NP. I am an older student and my intention in returning to school all along was to get a graduate level...
