  1. HRSA- Nurse Corps 2025

    Larakg replied to nursejemy's topic in General Nursing

    It looks like it's open, but I am unable to find a link to actually start an application on the "My BHW" website. Are others having the same issue? There's a green box that says "Open" for cycle...

    Hey! just saw this! Thanks for checking that on the calendar...good call.... I can't claim to be a marathoner yet, just a halfie :) And yes. I signed in this morning to look at

    Yup? Hmmm...the thing is, I know Cornell students who use it on occasion. but yes, i'm not really counting on

    Truth, hadn't considered buses. I suppose it depends what time I have to do it - if it's early enough where most humans will still be sleeping, perhaps that makes sense! I'm figuring the commute time...

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    Ha! That's a doozy.I'll be commuting from the UES, so still a hike since there's not a direct path. Though I think the Q is helping SUBSTANTIALLY since I actually have a bit of a link to the west side...

    I love that message! And in terms of waitlist - our responses and deposit are due March 15th, so hopefully shortly after that there would be some

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh I got into the MDE! Blood pressure...needs....to come

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    Earlier the better. I have a spot in the NYC marathon this year and I have to decide whether or not to keep it by Feb 17th. I think school will dictate...haha....I need to find

    There are no interviews. Outstanding classes are fine as long as you have a plan to finish by start

    Y'all, waiting

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm glad at least that they claim we will hear back in early February! I was thinking late Feb. At least that cuts off a couple of

    As to whether your score is a problem or not, I think that's been covered on this board many times already. As to the logistics of your question: You don't have time this app cycle, you can only...

  14. Columbia University MDE 2017

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    They just confirmed that my app has also passed the initial review, so this is an important lesson in not panicking unnecessarily. I will probably be a bundle of nerves by February. As for the...

  15. Columbia University MDE 2017

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    Have others received the initial review confirmation? I submitted back in August and don't recall receiving one. Wondering if I should check in with the office or if they're just starting that process...

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    I would just consider it as you would a job interview and yes, keep in mind what the camera will see. I put on a nice shirt with my jammies on the bottom, so. :) Remember that you're not just trying...

  17. Columbia University MDE 2017

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    Maybe ask someone who knows you well for some ideas. Maybe there's something about your personality or situation that isn't obvious to you because it's so intrinsic, but that will make you a...

  18. Columbia University MDE 2017

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    Out of curiosity, are there any guys reading this board/applying for the program? I just realized that when I read this I assume mostly females are writing, in some part because of comments and screen...

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    I don't know whether you should retake, but if you do, study with Magoosh. That site is amazing and I did a lot better than anticipated on math because of drilling a million sample problems and...

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    Don't know about the fee waiver. The office is pretty responsive, though. I would try email and they will let you know if it's otherwise. Or just call them. Submitting earlier is better. They kind of...

  21. Columbia University MDE 2017

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    I suppose lack of response means that I may have been the only one wondering about this - but just in case, I've now completed it and it was indeed 120 seconds total to answer the two questions. I...

  22. Columbia University MDE 2017

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    Question on the video essay - it says 2 minutes to answer both questions. Should I take that at face value, or do we actually get 2 minutes PER question? just seems like such a short time to...

  23. Columbia University MDE 2017

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    yup. It's a tricky thing - but you're right that it would probably be a mistake not to do it. If only because I bet admissions is excited about having a new toy and will be sad if people don't use it....

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    Yes. It's actually optional in all cases, so take that as you

  25. Columbia University MDE 2017

    Larakg replied to futureprovider's topic in School, College Programs

    Ha - yes. That is terrifying. Seems like this app is a bit different from previous years. Honestly, I am happy to have it (assuming I don't totally mess it up) since I feel like my background doesn't...
