Northeastern Direct Entry Fall 2022

Published

Hello everyone! I submitted my application for Northeastern's Direct Entry Pediatric Nurse Practitioner program. I was just thinking this could be a great space to provide updates, give each other tips, and ask any questions about the process. I know it is very nerve-wracking so this could be a great space. Please respond and we can get in touch on here or LinkedIn. Hope to hear from you all!

I applied to the PMHNP speciality and praying I get accepted. Can people who have already been admitted share their stats? 

I've been admitted for PMHNP and I am coming directly from undergrad.

3.97 GPA, still completing A&P 2 and nutrition. I have worked in an adolescent inpatient psychiatric unit, volunteer for crisis text line, and had an internship with a family support network. I plan to work with children and love working with them so that is what we talked about for the majority of my interview!

Hello! Congrats on getting accepted! How was your interview? Do you have any tips for preparing? Were there any difficult questions that stumped you? I’m very happy to hear from someone admitted! 

Thanks, 

Yanka 

They basically asked why Boston, why northeastern, and what led me to want to be a PMHNP. It was very conversational and casual, so definitely don't overthink it. I did prepare a bit the night before, but don't feel the need to over prepare! There was nothing that stumped me and they are definitely just wanting to have a conversation with us.

Hi everyone! 
I applied for the family NP speciality and also had my interview on Dec 1st, she said she’ll let us know decisions in 1-2 weeks! I know they’re doing rounds of interviews so they’ll do another set after Winter break as well, so I wouldn’t worry if you haven’t heard back! 

Congrats on your interview!? I am sure it went well and now you are probably super anxious awaiting a decision ahhhh! Did they contact you via email to set up the interview? I applied pretty close to the application deadline so I am sure I won't hear back for a bit regarding an interview or anything, but I want to make sure I am looking in the right place if they do reach out to me LOL.

Yes I am constantly checking my email loll And yes, they emailed me and gave me a bunch of time options, it was only a 30 mins interview, super short and conversational, nothing to worry about!

OMG I totally would be too. Perfect, thank you so much for sharing your experience to give us a better idea of what to expect, I really appreciate it. Is Northeastern your top choice? Or did you apply to other schools as well?

Hi Everyone!

I applied for FNP earlier in the Fall and completed the interview on November 27th and received my admission on November 30th! It was a very fast turn around and the interview was pretty general.

Hi! I applied to the family track and I had my interview on the 1st. During the interview she said it was more of a rolling process and that they are interviewing in chunks ?

Hey, have you heard back yet? I also had my interview the same day and am still waiting.

Hey! I haven’t heard anything yet and actually emailed the person who interviewed me. She said decisions may actually be out from December 1 by next Monday or Tuesday. Hope that helps!

Has anyone who submitted closer to the deadline heard anything from admissions? It seems like they are going in order of application submission for processing and interviewing.
