Is it your first choice and only school you applied to?

I'm located in Southern California...where are you coming from? Right now I have a decision from Columbia on the table and I am trying to evaluate the best choice for me thus far. I also am waiting from UCSF on their decision as I interviewed with them more than 3 weeks ago. There are several other programs I applied to but these are definitely my top 3 for sure! How are decisions going on your end?

Hey! It looks like the conversation's going back to the other thread, but I got into the PNP-PC specialty this morning. I'm from Washington, and I also applied to Marquette (accepted) and MGH Institute (waiting to hear). Vanderbilt is definitely my first choice, so I'll be sending my "yes" to them this week!

Hi everyone,

I applied to Vanderbilt's FNP program for early acceptance and have not gotten a letter so I guess I didn't get in. I'm trying to find out if anyone knows if this means I didn't get in for good or just didn't get in for early acceptance? Like, will my application still be held against others who come in later or am I just screwed. And, can I apply for PNP for this year still or can you only apply one time per year? I have a masters in Psychology and a 4.0 GPA so I feel like I might have a better chance of getting in PNP but I chose FNP because I wanted to be more versatile. Congrats to all of you who got in!

Hey musiclove, I know its hard to hear about others receiving their letters but i do know the admissions office is STILL reviewing applications and issuing out admit letters. I wish you all the luck!

Just found out I've been accepted to the FNP speciality track, as well! Does anyone know how big our class/cohort size is?

I've already started looking for apartments and churches in the area, haha.

Hi everyone!! I just got my letter of acceptance of pre-specialty FNP and cannot wait for August! Any thoughts on housing?

Hi All! Congrats on getting in. I am a pre-specialty student (starting ACNP) in the fall and I am looking for a house mate for next year. I currently share a two bedroom with my husband, but he is going out of state for school next year, so I am looking for someone to share my apartment with. I live between 12 south and green hills (can walk to both). PM me if interested.
