Does anyone know typically how much financial aid is offered? I was looking at the cost of tuition and was starting to freak out a bit.

I know same here girl! Correct me if I’m wrong anyone, but it’s about $75k tuition for each year (prespecialties do two years), not including room and personal spendings right? From previous cycles, I believe we get a $10k scholarship.

I am also curious. My nerves are on edge since the deadlines are approaching closer and closer. For myself, I have a 4.0 major GPA (UCLA psychobiology) and 4.0 nursing pre-reqs GPA. Regarding experiences, I've worked in several research labs (psychiatry, clinical psychology) and am published. I also am a medical scribe and crisis counselor. 

Hi, I applied for the Pre-specialty FNP. I am a certified Medical Lab Technologist for the last 20 years. My GPA is 3.98 the pre-reqs that I have completed are a 4.0 GPA. I am repeating my sciences because they are more that 5 years old.

Is anyone else feeling really  anxious about decisions? The final stretch of waiting feels like the worst part

Yep! You are not alone, this girl is anxious as can be.

Haha you know it hasn’t hit me yet. I think because the decision date is so ambiguous. It feels like it’s still a lifetime away for that reason. I’m sure in two weeks when we are super close I will be eating my words though!

Does Vanderbilt have a specific date for when we should have the FAFSA done? I saw something say February 1st, but I also saw something saying May 1st so I wasn’t sure l.

Don’t quote me on this but I believe that the Feb 1st deadline is to have your financial aid packet when they release acceptances and May 1st is the deadline in general for financial aid. Other schools I applied to May 1st is the hard deadline to just receive financial aid, so that's my guess.

I’m assuming it will be Valentine’s. The wait is killing me I wish I could know now!!

Yes, that is the expectation bases on prior years experiences. We are all anxious but we are almost there.

Does anyone else have acceptance(s) that they're worried about answering in time? For me it's JHU (must answer by 2/18). I know VUSN has typically released MSN decisions ~2/15. I know I can put down the $500 and go back on it, but I'd love to not do that because it's $500 LOL.

Anyone else also accepted to JHU? If so, how are you weighing the possibility of Vanderbilt vs. JHU?
