Psychmeout2 Sep 16, 2020 Update: due to Covid 19, the GRE IS NOT REQUIRED! However, if you do decide not to give any scores, they said that means there will be more emphasis placed on grades and the other parts of your application. 0 Likes
Psychmeout2 Oct 2, 2020 @aspiring NP that's a good question and I'm actually not sure. I know they usually answer phone calls if you want to know how many applications they get versus how many they accept and etc 0 Likes
CheNurse2b, EMT-B Nov 5, 2020 Hi all! I am also hoping to apply to the direct entry masters (depends if I can get my last letter of rec in by the deadline...) Did you end up finding out how competitive the program is? 0 Likes

Psychmeout2 Nov 18, 2020 Whaaaaa??? I didn't realize they only accepted 10 percent of the people they interview. I thought it was at least 30 percent considering how small the pool of people they interview is 0 Likes
kckc2020 Specializes in Clinical Research Manager. Nov 18, 2020 Thanks for your post @bnicoletti! Do you mind me asking what specialty you applied for? I applied to the FNP track and was told there were no interviews for that speciality when I attended a virtual webinar this Summer. Edited Nov 18, 2020 by kckc2020 0 Likes

I do not know if the acceptance rate is the same for the DE-Masters NP Program. I interviewed with Sean and what he told me is: cohort size 40-50 speciality size: 8 students per speciality So these stats could be TOTALLY different for the Direct Entry Masters program. 0 Likes
