Nursing Students Post Graduate
Published Sep 15, 2012
Hello all! I noticed a thread had not been started for those of us applying for Fall of 2013 so I thought I would start one. How are things going for everything regarding the application process?

Yep, keeping my fingers crossed and hoping we get an interview. The wait is the worst... It's gonna come soon enough though!

Does anyone know how many people get interviewed? I know for UPenn 75% of applicants are offered an interview, but I was not sure if that is the same for Yale. If anyone has information regarding this please let me know! Thank you!

ADT, I think it's around 50% of applicants get invited to interview.

adt, I agree with justD, I heard its 50-65% of applicants get an interview.
I keep checking the system, hoping there's a glitch and it would tell us earlier! Friday can't come soon enough!
I second that RVLy! I am also checking even though I know it's not up yet! Friday needs to hurry up!!!
Hello fellow applicants! I am going through my pre-reqs I'm starting in Spring (in case I have to re-apply/apply to place next year. Ideally, I won't even need them!!!) and was wondering if any of the schools you guys were applying to REQUIRED Chemistry as a pre req? All of the ones I'm looking into, including accelerated BSNs, seem to require Biology OR Chemistry or just not mention it at all.

JustD16,
A few of my schools required some sort of Chemistry. Northeastern required "Intro the Chemistry." I'm also applying to DePaul and Rush in Chicago and they both require Inorganic and Organic Chemistry if I remember right. DePaul for sure requires both, and I'm 95% Rush does as well. Those are not NP programs though, just 2-year MSN programs where you sit for the N-CLEX at the end. I have two years of inorganic and organic chemistry so I haven't really paid attention to which programs require which classes because hopefully I've got my bases covered. Schools seem to vary a lot with which Chemistry courses they require, so to be safe I took the full year sequence in both classes just so I didn't run into any problems. However, it seems that the way I did it really wasn't necessary. Hope that helps.

JustD16, https://allnurses.com/pre-nursing-student/direct-entry-msn-780307.html
also Yale doesn't have any prerequisites.
Of course I know Yale doesn't require any (they only recommend statistics) and I am not opposed to taking chemistry at all, I just want to make sure I have my bases covered. Thanks guys! I appreciate it!!!

I wonder how early they'll be posting these decisions. 8am EST?!
Kdiem, it makes me happy to know someone else is thinking about this and obsessing as much as me so thank you. And I believe in past years, emails started to go out in the 8:00 EST hour and most were out before noon. Tomorrow is going to be rough. So close yet so far!!!
The wait is driving me crazy too! I live in CST so I keep trying to trick my mind into thinking I will be getting notified one hour earlier even though that's not really the case haha.
