  1. Swedish August Residency 2017

    agirlhasnoname replied to kkay29's topic in Washington Nursing

    @coug_nurse et al - I appreciate the helpful information. I am thinking forward to when I will be applying this time next year -- for the November 2018 cohort. I've looked at the info posted by...

  2. Columbia University MDE 2017

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

    I do! I'm at 190th, in the Hudson Heights area. I'm very excited to go to school so close to home. It will be great to walk to class! And I'm super excited about the new

    Hey @ilovecorgis (I do too!) If you look closer to the nursing campus you can find 1 bedrooms for even cheaper than that. There was one in my building for $1850, and it's a great building/area. I've...

    The M4 may be your friend too. It goes all along the east side, and then up to northern Manhattan. Not quick, but sometimes it's nice to stay above

    I'm older too -- but no family. You can do it! The hardest part is the first 15 months, and then it's less crazy. I live in NYC too -- Washington Heights. I'm still pinching myself a little bit. I...

    The only way to get decently affordable in NYC is to live with two or more roommates. It's soooooo pricey, and the apartments are oftentimes soooooo crappy. Streeteasy is a good site/app for looking...

    Another MDE/DNP Psych here! I am so excited! I am from a field not at all healthcare-related, and am so grateful for Columbia's holistic assessment of their applicants. :) I wonder how the whole...

    Thanks for telling us about that blog, Bhealthwh -- good luck to you in your last weeks of waiting! (AUGH! TELL US ALREADY!!!) Some takeaways: 19 hours in ten weeks. Wow! And I found it interesting to...

    I believe the email they sent said January 9th was the last day to submit updated grades and

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

    I submitted mine. All you do is get a PDF of your updated transcript, log into your Columbia application, and upload

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

    Me too! I think in previous years they have said "by February 15," and it's ended up being early February. Wouldn't it be great if it were mid January instead? Not holding my

  14. Columbia University MDE 2017

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

    I got an email yesterday with the timeline, clarifying that the initial review can take a long time -- you all probably got it too. My initial application went in at the beginning of September, so...

  15. Nursing Prerequisites (UMass Boston accelerated BSN)

    agirlhasnoname replied to diannasawyer's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi there! I am currently taking Anatomy online through Johns Hopkins. They split anatomy and physiology into two separate classes. Health Prerequisites | School of Nursing at Johns Hopkins University...

  16. Columbia University MDE 2017

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

    If deferment is an option, that is my advice. It sounds like Columbia is the better choice, loan-wise. Why go to the trouble and expense of registering, buying books, securing many thousands of...

  17. Columbia University MDE 2017

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

    Is it possible to defer enrollment in the BSN program until the summer or fall so you can fully weigh all your

  18. Columbia University MDE 2017

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

    I submitted my application way back in early September, but my last rec letter did not arrive until October 3. Then I got the email about my application being complete approximately 10 days after...

  19. Columbia University MDE 2017

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

    I think we are required to submit all transcripts for college work, right? So by that token you have to submit those scores. There is a section in the application to write additional information...

  20. Columbia University MDE 2017

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

    I wish I knew more about this too. When I attended the info session last January, the admissions director said that the MDE-only application deadline was later than the MDE-DNP deadline, and they had...

    Oh me of little faith -- my last rec letter was submitted this afternoon. Hurrah! Now I get to look for that email saying everything is

  22. Columbia University MDE 2017

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

    The admissions people told me that since I didn't have a science background, it would be helpful for me to complete as many science pre-reqs as possible, so they can see I'm capable of science-ing....

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

    Thanks for sharing what you did. I think I'll send a reminder on Monday, and then every Monday until the Monday October 17th deadline. I want a rec from this prof; I don't want to seek anyone else...

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

    I still have one rec letter that hasn't been turned in. I know the SON said that rec letters could arrive as late as 10/17, but I am still a bit worried. I have sent a reminder, and communicated with...

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

    I hope so! Your story seems like exactly the reason why numbers are only part of the equation. Good luck to you! I dreamed last night about that darn video essay (I've already done it, and submitted...
