Hi! I'm starting a thread for Vanderbilt MSN Fall 2019. Anyone else applying/re-applying too? Please comment!

This. This nails it for me. For the number two program in the nation to have such poor communication skills, laugh at a prospective student when asking about admissions, hanging up on prospective students, etc. that’s unacceptable behavior from any professional let alone a private university who asks 67k from a already struggling student.
im sorry, I’m no push over but I call *** on them. I was an assistant professor in my “former life” before I became a nurse and I know better than this being the “norm”. We’ve all been given different answers and we’ve just asked for the same simple transparent answer across the board. The fact that days after a “delay email” we are still getting varying answers is inexcusable.
Sorry for the soapbox, I’ve just been in education long enough to know when you’re being dicked over and it infuriates me.

What metric has it as #2 in the nation? Is that for a specific specialty?
