To anyone else who put in an application to Emory this fall and is anxiously awaiting news from the office of admissions: let's wait together! Only about 8 weeks until this seemingly impossible wait will be coming to an end...
I don't know much about the program at Emory, but I have heard only glowing word-of-mouth reviews, and the admissions staff have come across as warm and supportive. I am especially impressed by the school's focus on social responsibility. Is it crazy to fall in love with a school sight unseen? What are your own reasons for applying to Emory?
I would also love to hear from current or former students about your experiences there. How are the group dynamics among students and with professors? Has studying there taught you how to apply nursing skills to community outreach/development?
Finally got my letter in the mail! I have a quick question if anyone happens to know the answer... in the letter it says to view the Admitted Students' website by going to Emory | Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing | Homepage and clicking on the Admitted Students' icon and signing in with our OPUS information. For some reason I can't find the "Admitted Students' icon" on this page for the life of me- has anyone else been able to find it and sign in? Thanks so much!
Thanks lifeismuzik- when I sign into regular OPUS I don't see anything here either about an "Admitted Students' website". I may be looking in the complete wrong place, I'm obviously not very OPUS savvy haha. I'm using Safari web browser, maybe this is the problem. Have you been able to find a site that has more info about admitted students and/or the Admitted Students' Day?
Hey I found the "Admitted Students" link. Go to Emory's nursing website, and click on the "Admission" tab. The Admitted Student's link will be on the lower left side. Use your OPUS log in to access it.
Is anyone planning on going to the Admitted Students Day? I keep trying to find more information about what will be happening that day, but can only find it is going on 2-5pm. Does anyone have any more details? Not sure if I should skip school or not for the event...but can't wait to meet everyone!!!
I definitely can't make it--it is on a work day and flights this late in the game aren't cheap.Could I persuade anyone to give a run down of the event afterward? Either on here, by email or a brief chat on the phone with me? Emory was one of my top 3 choices and I am still waiting back on the last two, so I would love to chat with someone about their experience at the open house if I can...
How awesome! I don't know why I haven't seen this thread yet. I was also accepted for the midwifery specialty. Any other future midwives out there? :) I haven't heard much about the program so any insight would be awesome. I can't attend the admitted students day but plan to visit sometime in February.
I also won't be able to make it to the Admitted Students' Day (currently living overseas!) so I would also love it if someone could post some info afterwards! Emory is one of my top choices but I am still waiting to hear back about scholarship/financial aid information...I'm not sure I can afford it otherwise!
I can't attend either. I have a feeling (or at least I am hoping) that they will have an other admitted students day later on. They only gave about three weeks notice and I'm sure they understand that three weeks was kind of tight... I hope! Emory is a top contender and I really wanted to attend on Feb 8th!
