congratulations on your acceptance! Were you taken off the waiting list or outright accepted? I think some of us are waiting to see if there is any realistic chance for being taken off the waiting list for the next cohort ?

almost seems like anyone that didn't get an acceptance, got waitlisted at this point. There's at least 6 of us so far. I wish there were more information, waitlist is so stressful.

Waitlisted tonight as well. I wonder what the odds are and how big the waitlist is. The timing is rough as I have an acceptance somewhere else, but Gonzaga is my first choice. So now it's limbo/purgatory time.

Did anyone get an invite to 2nd in-person interview yet?

Partner Interviewed. Anyone know when they do their decisions ??

Thanks for the information! I wish "overqualified" weren't a thing in the world, but it seems to carry on. I'm more into the whole "honest day's work for an honest day's pay" kind of concept myself. But yes, I'll have to look into sleep clinic when things pick up and see if they like having BSN's there ?

I have, actually! My intention was not to put down or condescend in any way. Watching people sleep is not necessarily a simple or easy task. No offense was offered from my statement. Merely asking if there is a pathway to polysomnography for RN's that doesn't involve a whole new degree.

Random question in this crazy pandemic economy. Many facilities are redeploying or laying off staff in certain nursing specialties right now. Before I became an RN I was always kind of interested in sleep studies and basically watching the patient's sleep all night. Is there a fast track for already BSN prepared nurses? All I can find is information about how associate degrees and STAR programs are the requirement. It seems like as RN's there would only be maybe some sleep specific coursework we could self study at home and then take a credentialing test? Anyone have any knowledge? I wouldn't mind working as a polysomnographer tech for awhile during this whole pandemic crisis and my current job security being iffy.

Hello, I got accepted into both BSN to DNP programs and I have the (fortunate) decision of which to choose? Did anyone else just get into either program as well or know which program would be the stronger school for getting the best NP education? Both schools have high ratings. I've got to make my decision soon! Illinois vs Ohio.. I also got into USA (University of Southern Alabama) but I've mostly seen negative reviews about them so far. Thanks!

I was told mid March. So probably another week or 2.

Anything for already working RNs going into BSN to DNP? I hijacked the grad entry thread. Haha. Sorry!

I was accepted into the BSN to DNP program for Psych on Monday! I'm pretty terrified but also excited. @NicoleDJ would you mind PM'ing me, I too would love to have someone ahead in the program that may help me stay afloat. I'm going to be in the part time distance program and Patho nearly destroyed me in nursing school. Congratulations to everyone else, if there is a FB group for 2020 BSN to DNP OSU groups, please let me know! I'm not from Ohio (might be moving there despite being in the distance cohort) so I hope I can still make some friends through technology or during experiences we have to travel to on campus.

Thanks! No, nothing about scholarships presently. Just the due date of the $250 downpayment for your seat in the program. So nervous. How much were you planning on spending for your FNP?

Not that anyone is reading but I just got accepted today for PMHNP DNP! I'm now terrified though. It's so expensive!! Why are all these schools 100k it seems. And these arent even the private ones. Those are like 200k! NPs dont make physician money.

PMed you ?
