  1. Vanderbilt MSN 2017

    For prospective applicants for the 2017 year in the Vanderbilt MSN program. Being as I am currently wait listed in the 2016 year due to a very late application, there is a high probability I would...
  2. Vanderbilt MSN 2017

    Just a heads up: You will not earn a BSN in Vanderbilt's accelerated nursing program. You will earn an RN only. No BSN. If you want a BSN (along with another semester of education to account for this...
  3. Vanderbilt MSN 2017

    Good luck to all those doing the preparation for your application for admission! Don't fret about the GRE too much. Be sure to diversify your skills and portfolio and become an expert without the...
  4. Vanderbilt MSN 2017

    Hi tessag12: The letters of reference have to be professional in nature so former bosses/superiors, professors etc will provide testimony to your interest and ability to complete the program and that...
  5. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    Hi GR: There is a waitlist and anyone can be called for a last minute acceptance for those who may vacate their spots at last moment's notice. Its really hard to say whether you will have a good...
  6. Vanderbilt MSN 2017

    Hi Tessa! Make sure you don't make the same mistake I did and apply by the November deadline for early consideration otherwise you may end up on the waitlist. Good luck! Keep us posted and ask...

    I received a call first. Email followed the next
  8. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    Got GREAT news this morning! I made it into the RN/CNM/MSN program this morning. I practically shouted with joy! I was on the waitlist. My application was finished February 4th. Proof that it can be...
  9. Vanderbilt MSN 2017

    Depending on the degree of competition within the applicant pools, be sure to work on activities that pertain to your intended degree. My GRE score wasn't great in my opinion but because I earned two...
  10. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    Hi amFNP2b: I am glad you were able to learn about the wait list situation for your program. I wish they were a little more forthright for all programs with respect to how many are actually on the...
  11. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    Interesting. I don't see it. Just the email to go to the link where the letter is found and when I got back to the status page, it looks all the same including the screen to manage my application. Did...
  12. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    I received wait list confirmation today. I was told that you can be invited as a student up to the day of orientation. So you can be offered a spot the day orientation starts which is kind of rotten...
  13. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    What specialty did you apply for and was it pre? I was told today by the CNM director that and in so many words without being this direct that it was highly unlikely this year that if I landed on the...
  14. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    How did you learn you were on the wait list FNP2b? Was it an email? Letter? Phone call? I applied the CNM program and haven't heard a word. I had a telephone interview so now I am
  15. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    @sbvolver: I suspect you may have a chance it will just depend on what your package/application looks like against the others who are wait listed and where you fall -- which they will never disclose...
  16. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    Has there been anyone who has actually turned down a Vanderbilt offer? The pre-specialty CNM program has 25 seats open. I am curious if anyone has decided to go elsewhere or not go especially for this...
  17. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    So yes, I was interviewed this morning and told the program's 25 spots have all had offer letters sent. Those letters were sent out to the potential pre-specialty CNM students last week/this week....
  18. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    My application was finished February 4th so I will be waiting
  19. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    Mid-March is a long time especially for those who applied in time to meet the priority deadline! Hopefully the turnaround time will be much quicker and we will all hear back well before then. I have...
  20. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    amFNP: I heard the same thing from the Vanderbilt admissions counselor as well about the wait list not moving but that was for the CNM program. It makes you wonder what type of volume of applicants...
  21. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    It went quiet on the forums with respect to acceptance/waitlist/non-acceptance letters. Are there many of you still waiting? If so, for which
  22. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    Small world! If I am lucky enough to get in (that's a big IF!) I am also from Michigan -- GVSU undergrad x2 and MSU MPH grad although I did my Masters program all online. I lived in Michigan up until...
  23. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    No and I wouldn't expect to hear anything until way later. My application was finished when my GRE score was documented on February 3rd. So just two days ago. I know they are starting to just now...
  24. Vanderbilt MSN 2016

    I applied to the pre-specialty CNM/MSN program. I only learned about it the first week of this year (I had no idea two year programs even existed in order to obtain the combined RN/MSN designation and...

    ColoradoKT: What part of Colorado (I am assuming) are you in? I am out here in the Springs
