Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to start a thread for those who applied to the DNP program at Hopkins. I recently applied prior to the early Nov 1 deadline. I noticed from last years thread that some applicants mentioned they had interviews already (at this time). Has anyone applied and been interviewed yet? Best of luck to everyone.

Must be nice to have a friend in admissions! Do you know if they have looked at the late PMHNP post-grad cert apps yet? When I go into CAS, my letters of recommendation were "received" but not "processed". For the other two schools to which I applied, they were "processed" about a week prior to admission to each school. Just wondering how it looks on everyone else's screen, for I turned in my application late and don't think they have even looked at it.
I'm still considering JH b/c P-M cert students have to arrange their own clinical rotations; it may be easier to do as a student affiliated with a big name school. I've realized that getting into most PMHNP programs is the easy part, for the challenge is finding psych peds, adult and gero, all requirements. If I didn't have to work FT and remain in my state, and if I were younger, DNP would absolutely be the way to go for PMHNP primarily b/c they arrange the rotations!
Best wishes.
Hey Starfish,
So he worked in admissions while we went to school at Hopkins and doesn't know anything about the current process, he just said that sometimes the emails are sent it takes a few hours to process and that they always work over Spring break to look over applications that haven't been processed yet which includes putting in grades and ensuring that all requirements are met before they send it for evaluation by an official admissions official. Hope that helps.
