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?

The decisions are coming out on a Sunday? Oh, interesting! So I guess I'll be looking out for both. 

I remember speaking with one of the admissions counselors, Stephen White, and he said "around the 15th." I'm hoping that means tomorrow LOL. But on Emory's website it says round 2 goes out tomorrow. When I got my decision in October, it came out around 5 pm EST.

I applied MTA which I heard was the most competitive.

It is where you will be placed for clinical! MTA means "Middle Tennessee Area" and OMTA means" Outter Tennessee Area"

Oh it gave you an option between those two things and was a requirement before you could submit the application.

Maybe not for all specialties? I definitely don't remember that for midwifery, I don't think it was on my application.
