I did. I had a pretty good non-covid reason though (National Guard Orders), so I have no idea how difficult it is to get a deferment in other circumstances. Personally I am happy it has happened this way as my Guard time will help me get my finances ...

I got in off the waitlist. After waiting almost the entire 48 hours though I decided to go with Columbia. Hope this helps someone that is still waiting!
I got in off the waitlist at Yale which created a (happy) dilemma for me as I was already accepted to CUSON. This was very useful though and helped me make my decision in favor of CUSON.

So I imagine a few folks will be in this position, but at the moment, I have been accepted to Columbia's DNP program and have interviewed for Yale's MSN. If I get into Yale as well, I will have a tough (but admittedly desirable) choice on my hands. I...
This captures my own motives basically perfectly. Our school set is the same too, except I applied to BC instead of Vanderbilt. I wish Yale's program was a DNP. It seems to be the same amount of work.
Here;s my stats for those interested:
Undergrad: BA in Math and Philosophy from a SUNY, 3.7/4
Graduate: MA Theology from an Ivy, Seminary masters after that.
Prereqs: 4/4, Stats and Micro still pending.
Extras: Army Vet, Chaplainc...
