Northeastern University Direct Entry Program 2017

Published

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to see if anyone is applying to NEU's Direct Entry Program for this upcoming fall. I'm in the process of applying, with a specialty in psychiatric. Just wanted to see if there was anyone else that is also interested in their program.

If so, how has your experience been so far with the application?

Furthermore, if there's anyone already in the program? How was your application process, what specialty did you choose and how do you like the program so far?

I wish us all luck! Hope to hear from you all.

Hi! i am also applying for Pediatric Primary Care. I started the application last week and I still need to work on the essay.

We're both in the same position, I only have the personal statement left until I submit the application.

I'm pretty excited about their program. Have you been to the school yet?

Hope you get through with your essay. It's taking me longer than expected because there isn't a set guideline on how they want it written. (ex: word count, pages)

Good luck! I have just been working on it here and there because I am still in my undergrad so busy with classes and such. But I have never seen the school! Where else are you applying?

I haven't been to the school either or Boston. Aside from Northeastern, I'm applying to University of San Francisco, University of South Alabama, Rush University and University of Illinois at Chicago.

What other programs are you looking into?

It is so nice in Boston, I have been there once! But I applied to Drexel, UPenn and Emory so far. I was accepted so far to Emory and Drexel.

Omg! Congrats! It's always great to have options lined up just in case. Emory is a good school but they didn't have psych nursing. I missed the deadline for UPenn. I've met a lot of people from Boston and I've only heard good things so far.

Hey guys, I too am applying to NEU's Direct Entry Program. I'm so confused about transcripts. The application says to arrange to mail in official transcripts, but in their Graduate Programs FAQ it says that they accept scanned versions of official transcripts uploaded to the application. I'm about to do both just to be on the safe side. What did you guys do?

Hey! I actually spoke to the director and I asked her the same question. You can order your official transcripts from your schools, scan and upload it into the application. She told me after you get accepted into the program, they'll request to send an official transcript straight to the school.

I did both, but after making contact with the Director she told me that they would prefer that it is scanned into the application.
