Just checking to see if anyone else is considering Yale for Fall 2012 for any of the Masters specialties.

I'm compiling my list of schools and check out application dates. I am *pretty sure* I'll apply to Yale.... yikes!

Anyway, I'd love to hear from you if you are too!

I will mostly likely be applying to Yale. :) I'll be applying to their direct entry program.

Very nice! I saw quite a few posts from last year geared toward that program.

I'll just be applying to one of the regular nursing Master's specialties. I'm still flip flopping when it comes to choosing one, so I'm completing a few shadowing opportunities in the near future to help me see what life is like in each role.

Have you heard any pointers/news so far?

I will most likely be applying to Yale. My other schools are UConn, Columbia, and Univeersity of South Carolina. South Carolina is my last choice (I'd have to relocate), UConn is my realistic choice, and Yale and Columbia are just for the heck of it, though I definitely have a better shot than I'm giving myself credit for. I'm looking to do the ACNP track, btw.

Same here, APatriganiRN! I am aiming for the ACNP track as well.

I've got a few other "reach schools" on my list, including Johns Hopkins and Georgetown. I'll be applying to a few state schools as well, which are more realistic. But, you never know until you try!

Have you heard anything about what kind of GRE scores they look for? I'm having anxiety about not getting them done in time. I've got a date for the end of the month, but I just don't know if I can get all my stuff together RIGHT for Nov 1. So, I might just accept that I'll apply within the window of rolling admissions, and let things unfold.

How is it going on your end?

I'll more than likely be applying to the GEPN program :)

Thank you, Category X! I vaguely remember seeing that one in my searches.... there's so many!

I'm curious how much value they will place on the GRE's this time around, considering all the changes and alterations in scoring.

Maybe it will work to our advantage?

Is Yale's MSN completely online? Have been through their website several times, did not find mention of course delivery format. Please steer me to that page on their website...
