If you are invited to interview you will receive an email with a day, time, link, and who you will interview with shortly after. They used to give you the option of in-person vs zoom, however with my...
I'm glad it helped. Honestly, I'm still afraid to plan anything in the future - haha. We do get a full Winter break. Our Spring break was canceled this year. We get a few days off between Spring and...
Sorry for the delay on this one. Still have one more midterm exam and the most important (LH's med/surg). If no one knows who she is - look her up. She is AMAZING and pretty much the matriarch of the...
Hello all! The application cycle is open and I wanted to start a thread for anyone applying so I can stop re-reading previous years threads, haha. My application is pretty much finished but I'm...
Hello everyone! I hope classes are going well. I know this is a long-shot, but I'm just trying to get some intel. I heard you were pulled from clinical rotation at YNHH, is that true? YSN is up in the...
No problem. I'm glad to see they are accepting a large amount and the deferrals don't seem to impact the admissions numbers. I go with traffic on 95 (from SE CT), which is pretty junky. There is...
That's a good number, therefore disregard what I said. We ended up with 96 this year which is much smaller than in previous years. They like life experience so being that far out of undergrad is not...
@GreenMagus87
You'd bring a very unique background to YSN from within the Yale community. I too had a probationary blip on my academic record and I attached a supplemental paper explaining it. I...
@MC__3 All but 1 person in my study group was asked if they shadowed an NP during their interview (even though we had it written in our resumes if we did). The one that was not asked actually had...
Random late night thought that I wanted to share with everyone in this application cycle. I would STRONGLY encourage you to shadow a nurse practitioner in your specialty of interest for about a week....
@Psychmeout2 I rewrote my SOP completely about 10 times. Then, I knew it was perfect. You'll know when it is. They love YOUR story. Start with a story - grab them in the first couple of sentences to...
Hello, incoming GEPN here. I’d be happy to answer anyone’s questions. This group was what helped me keep my sanity during last years cycle. @Psychmeout2 now that you’ve been through the process...
PS pay close attention to “telling the story” part. That’s what they’re looking for in your SOP. It engages them. Otherwise, they’ll get bored. You want to grab them in the first couple...
Hello, @secondtimer14. Entering GEPN here. I’m just seeing this question. DEFINITELY tell your story. They LOVE to hear YOUR story. Do not be dry - follow the prompts within your narrative without...
@Hopefulyalie I was going to mention Amy, she was the only one I knew of from on here. I’m glad she responded to you. Also, on IG there’s a girl I knew of from having some of the same friends and...
This group has been nothing but supportive, so your negativity and your false words of encouragement for what you perceive as a positive program outcome are unfounded. First of all, Yale only accepts...
Hi, @Bpgl2008! Good luck on your application process. As @The_Wholesome_NP mentioned it is a very rigorous process and starting now will only help you. I will be attending Yale in the fall for the FNP...
@Kylo I wasn't sure if any of the others had CNM. I'm glad you were already looking into doula, that means you're on the right track and you know what you need to do. There are no others in CT and...
@Kylo are you native to CT? Have you looked into the direct entry NP programs? They actually have no prereqs besides a bachelors. Of course, the standard prereqs on your transcript would be a plus...
From my notes from an info session: Last year they received approx. 380 applications and accepted 62-63 students for the 55-65 slots that they have available. Based on past posts it didn't matter how...
