Any PMHNP applicants out there? If so where are you applying to?

if you are already a PMHNP can you give any tips when applying? How many schools did you apply to? what were your stats like?

thanks!

Specializes in Adolescent Psych, PICU.

I am applying to USA for the pt spring semester. If I dont get into that program this spring I plan to apply to other schools for the fall (just not sure where else....I want Family pmhnp in order to see adults and children). My stats are nothing impressive: 3.3 gpa, 1.5 yrs psych RN, 1 yr PICU, BSN.

What about you?

Hey sorry it took awhile to get back to you, a crazy few days at work. My GPA is pretty smiliar to yours. I've done a lot of volunteer work overseas- mostly in africa. Now I am working in Australia on a High Level Neuroscience/Medical Unit. I'll have a year under my belt once I send in my applications for next fall.

I worry that I haven't done psych nursing and how programs will read into that. But, I've known from the start I've wanted to do psych np just wanted to get some more general experience first, thought it would help in the long run.

My dream schools- are Udenver, Uwashington, Upenn and Umich. So I think i'll take a stab at all of them and see if I get in anywhere. Any idea how hard it is to get into pmhnp programs? is it easier than other specialties?

It's hard to find any pmhnps so any input would be lovely!
