   Getting excited (and nervous!) for my interview tomorrow! Just wanted to say good luck to everyone interviewing tomorrow and next week, and I look forward to meeting those of you that are in the afternoon session tomorrow!

   Looks like 2 of us from Psych/Mental Health have also received letters. I think the FNP group is the largest group in the class, so it would make sense that more of them may be hearing back. Good luck to you!

   I just hoped to work as an RN during the 2 years of the masters program in order to make money so that my student loans wouldn't be as overwhelming... I do not plan to work as an RN upon graduation, I will fully pursue my license to practice as a PMH...

   Myelin- I was just about to ask how not having a BSN influences a Psych NP's chance of getting a job, so thank you for reassuring me about the NP jobs after graduation. Did you, or any of the other students in the psych specialty, work as an RN durin...

   @stephenandrews Don't get discouraged, no one is saying that people aren't hiring those with an MSN. Nurse Practitioners are in demand, especially with the changing healthcare system. Someone was merely pointing out that if you are looking for part t...

   I believe he is only referring to those who are looking for part time or per diem work as RNs after the first year of the program. Many people work as RNs through the last 2 years, and I have heard from friends who are nurses (with BSNs) that their h...

   Thanks so much @samdaman for the feedback about the breakdown by concentration. I applied for PMHNP and had spoken last year with one of the department heads who said they generally take 6-9 students for that track. Fingers crossed now!

    Hi everyone, I emailed Steven at UCSF to ask about my transcripts and he confirmed that they were all received. Helps to have the peace of mind in case anyone else was worried about theirs, absolutely doesn't hurt to email him and ask :)

    Mine also shows this- anyone know how we will receive confirmation that our transcripts have been received? Does anyone's review page include their transcripts?

    Yes I sent two, but on the website it says that if your application is locked and paid for, they will allow extra time for supplemental materials to arrive. Just send the 2nd copy ASAP and I'm sure it will be ok :)

    Hi everyone, just submitted the application :) Someone had mentioned that once you lock and submit it that it allows you to see the status of transcript receipts and such, but I was just given a page that says "Your Application Status: Under Review ...

    My application shows that my GRE scores were linked with my account. If you can input your confirmation/registration number from the GRE they can link it with your application faster. Definitely get your transcripts in ASAP. Will it show on our appli...

    Hi myelin- I tried to PM you but the site doesn't allow it unless you have made 15 interactions on the site (to avoid people using it for spam). Are you in the Psych/MH track? I was wondering if you could specify the specific difference between the g...
