    If you are only planning to be a RN then it probably is not worth it. I would say it's more worth it for those who plan to go into advanced practice. If you want to be a DNP it's probably the best...

    Just want to add something to the conversation. First off, we have not received financial aid packages yet, so you likely will not be spending the full amount at Columbia. Nevertheless, Columbia will...

    Hey Nbssr18, I think one of us has to start the group. I have never started a Facebook group and I was trying to but it looks like I would need everyone to send me their email or full name so I could...

    Hey everyone! Regarding the question about "why columbia vs. other schools," I would have to say that at this point Columbia is my first choice because it offers not only a MSN (instead of a BSN or...

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

    Should we start a admitted students Facebook page? Or would it be best to wait until everyone has decided whether to attend or not? I am 95% sure I will go to Columbia over Yale (not even sure if I...

    The latest we will know is next Monday. I think we will find out sometimes this week. It would be crazy if we found out after monday as they have states multiple times that we will know "by the 15th...

    As a masters student, you never have to put parent info (as others have said). However, if you are also doing a FASFA for BSN programs, and are under 24, you may need to put parent info. Not totally...

    I know this disappointing for everyone! This decision means major life changes for all of us and it's hard to move forward with plans without knowing! I'm probably reading far to much into that...

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

    NOT COOL. Who literally just freaked out with the email that came from the school of nursing with "decision" in the title? I thought for a good 15 seconds that they had made decisions! Big let

    Hey emara9, Funny enough, I am from San Francisco! It is not fun to have a car in the city, you often have to pay for parking as there is so few free spots. However, if you live outside SF (which is...

    Definitely don't need a car or want a car in NYC! It is a hassle and I was told it is unnecessary for clinicals due to such suburb public transit in NYC. This is one of the pros of Columbia and cons...

    I live in new york city (walking distance from the SON). When I moved to the city to get my masters at Columbia I looked into student housing. My program was on the main campus, and the student...

    I think it is safe to assume that we will be taking out massive loans (as someone who already completed a masters at columbia and lived in NYC). However, it is important to remember that at the end of...

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

    Ya, I have read the post from past years and people always call, and admissions always say "by mid February." One year, someone called only hours before decisions went out and they still said "by mid...

    Totally know what you guys mean. I'm having a hard time sleeping because my mind keeps spinning about how bad I want admittance to Columbia. I keep having this horrible feeling that I won't get in. I...

    I hope you are right Esmeraldap! However, the admission process is more complicated this year I think since they have to not only determine who is accepted to the Etp program (what they determine...

    Ok, so I checked and in 2013 they found out on feb 6th, in 2014 they found out on Feb 7th and in 2015 the found out of Feb 9th. So hopefully we find out

    Hey KAH123, The emails from Columbia said we would know "by February 15," however in past years I believe the have found out earlier. Hopefully we find out sooner! Though I wouldn't be surprised if...

    Thanks everyone for answering. I had my interview at Yale yesterday, and generally I think the school is really good, but I still am hoping to get admission to Columbia due to the fact that it is a...
