1. YALE GEPN 2022

   secondtimer14 replied to Lemonsauceguy's topic in School Programs

   Hello. Second year student here. Have to be honest, it's not all that feasible. Especially during GEPN year. Professors do not allow you to zoom unless you have covid. Yes, you are allowed to skip class. But you are not allowed to skip labs or clinic...

2. YALE GEPN 2022

   secondtimer14 replied to Lemonsauceguy's topic in School Programs

   Regarding housing - to echo above, East Rock is probably the most popular neighborhood with graduate students. Lots of beautiful big old homes turned into triplexes, with East Rock Park right there and some cute coffee shops etc. Westville/West Rock ...

4. YALE GEPN 2022

   secondtimer14 replied to Lemonsauceguy's topic in School Programs

   My kids are young as well (a toddler plus two in elementary). There is a solid group of parents in each class year, and we really band together and support each other (unsurprisingly, most of us are NM or PNP). My best advice is to have a really soli...

5. YALE GEPN 2022

   secondtimer14 replied to Lemonsauceguy's topic in School Programs

   Hi all! Another current GEPN here ? I've been meaning to pop over, as I lived on here last year. CONGRATS to those admitted!! For those seeing the cold hard numbers for the first time, deep breaths. I remember very vividly when I learned I...

   Yikes, yeah I don't think this should be a factor for me.

7. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty Entry 2021

   Since it's 3 scholarships for 100 people, you have to operate under the assumption you won't get it, and be pleasantly surprised if it come through. There's also the 3 second-year scholarships that will be based on grades.

   Yes! Where else are you considering?

9. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty Entry 2021

   secondtimer14 replied to Guest1148094's topic in School Programs

   I get that, and it sounds really nice at first. But the most disadvantaged/economically vulnerable students will be lost that way, because it's scary to commit to a $160,000 program thinking you got at most 10,000 off. You can absolutely love the sch...

10. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty Entry 2021

    secondtimer14 replied to Guest1148094's topic in School Programs

    I'm really surprised they do it this way. Traditionally scholarships like that are used to poach the best students during this pre-enrollment process. It's still only 3 scholarships for a class of approximately 100, not sure how I should weigh this (...

    Wow, so you're certain those haven't been allocated yet? That's huge.

12. Yale GEPN 2021

    secondtimer14 replied to Psychmeout2's topic in School Programs

    Would any of the current students on the thread be willing to speak with me offline about the program (especially midwifery people)? I just got into Vanderbilt (yay!) and I need to decide by Monday and feeling really torn.

13. Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty Entry 2021

    secondtimer14 replied to Guest1148094's topic in School Programs

    Admitted student day not until the 12th. CONGRATS to those admitted! Anyone here deciding between Yale and Vandy? Yale's deposit is due next Monday and I am completely on the fence, so I feel like I need to make a decision in the next wee...
