Hi! I wanted to start a forum for people applying to Vanderbilt's MSN program for a fall 2025 enrollment. Which program are people applying to & how much experience do you guys have?

Is anyone else planning to put down the deposit to hold their spot? Vanderbilt's Jan 20 decision deadline is sooo early and I'm still waiting to hear back from Penn and OHSU which won't be until late Jan. I would love to be able to visit before deciding too but they aren't hosting an admitted students day until April apparently (which I feel like defeats the purpose...). I heard from friends who are in the program now that many of them put down the deposit to hold their spot before they decided 100% so I'm wondering how common that is.

I think I will put down the deposit even though I'm not 100% sure yet. If the deposit was refundable it would be easier-- but I totally get why it's non-refundable. I'm mostly sure I want to attend but I am having some anxiety about the cost of the program so I think I am going to go to the financial aid Q&A and then see how I feel after that. But I know they have an excellent program and I didn't apply anywhere else so this is my option if I want to start a program this year.

I couldn't find a forum for Vanderbilt's PMHNP-PMC program for 2025. Does anyone know how long it takes to hear back with rolling admissions?

Hi everyone!

I submitted my application on 10/12 and found out I was accepted into the full time fall 2025 FNP program on 12/20! I have 4 years of RN experience, my overall GPA was a 3.55.

I'll be doing clinicals within MTA area since I'm moving to Clarksville, TN in about a month! If anyone wants to connect I'd love to build a support group for each other, maybe a study group too!! :) My email is [email protected]
