2013 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

Nursing Students Post Graduate

Published

Hi Everyone! This topic thread is for those applying to UPENN BSN/MSN program summer 2013. I hope we can create a support network here!

I will be applying to the nurse-midwifery and WHNP program and have begun writing my personal statement. Their application should be completely available July 15th but you should be able to create an account. Good luck everyone!

Congrats to everyone who got in! Is Penn one of your top choices, or perhaps your first choice? I agree with sarahcee that financial aid will be an important deciding factor. I read that the financial aid packages should be coming in a few weeks.

Penn is definitely one of my top choices, especially as a peds girl. The opportunity to do clinicals at CHOP, the #1 peds hospital in the country, is just incredible!! Of course, there are a ton of other enticing aspects of the program (such as the immersion trips, etc) but that's what makes Penn really stand out for me when comparing it to other schools.

Hello everyone,

I was accepted to Penn for psych. I'm elated and want to congratulate all those accepted. I'm still waiting to hear from other schools, but Penn was one of my top choices. I'm looking forward to connecting with you all more via allnurses, facebook, and hopefully at Penn!

I, too, am in for psych! I heard there were only 3 spots so apparently we are 2 of our 3 that were accepted into this specialty. Where will you be moving from? I'll be coming all the way from Washington state.

atomicgirl, I'll be coming from southern California! So, equally as far, hehe. And only 3 spots in the program? I had no idea the specialty was that small. Congrats to you and hopefully we'll hear from the third person!

Yeah, on interview day, I had asked and was told there were only 3 spots for psych mental health and 9 interviewing. Congrats to you, too! Is it too soon to talk about housing?? hehe. I'm a major planner! I'd love to split a 4 or 5 bedroom house with a bunch of awesome roommates.

Hello everyone,

I'm in for psych too, so I guess I'm the 3rd person hahah I'm coming from Miami so if I do decide to go to UPenn, it will be a drastic change for me. I got into Columbia and CRWU but I think UPenn will be my final choice. I'm just waiting for financial aid packages to be able to compare them. Congrats to everyone! Looking forward to meeting you all =P

atomicgirl, thanks for that info! I did a phone interview to save on costs and was a bit worried that it would put me at a disadvantage...I feel very fortunate that it didn't :). I'm still waiting to hear from Yale and a few other schools, but if I ultimately decide on Penn, then definitely, I would love to split a house with other folks. Also, I requested to join the Facebook group so we can continue our conversation there as well. Go psych! :)
