Has anyone else submitted their application for UVA's Direct Entry CNL program?

I was accepted. Last years cohort did a facebook page…. Is anyone else interested?

Has anyone heard back about anything?

I got into Pre-specialty FNP! Anyone else factoring the extremely high cost of tuition into their decision?

Hey everyone, I was also accepted. I'm speechless! Congratulations to everyone. Can't wait to meet you all.

Hi everyone, I saw in years past that there were threads for people who applied to specific programs so I figured I'd carry on the tradition. Is anyone else applying for the Direct entry CNL program at UVA? The application deadline is October 1...

Hi everyone, I too received an email for an interview! Does anyone remember what the start date of the program would be? I know mid-may. So eager and excited for this opportunity!!

Awesome. Thank you so much for your reply on this thread! Just out of curiously - what is your background pre UVA CNL?

Hi ak2022, Thanks for all of this! Do you know if everyone who was accepted went through an interview? Do you remember what kinds of questions were asked? Looking to hear back soon!

Not yet... hopefully soon! Looking at past years threads, they start contacting for interviews around this time.

Hi everyone, Has anyone heard back about anything? I check the status of my application daily. Super anxious!

Hi everyone, I was wondering if you could share your interview experiences. I've applied for 2021 cycle and waiting to hear back! Thanks!!

Hi everyone, I just realized I posted in the wrong thread LOL - I posted in Direct Entry. I also applied to PreSpeciality. I have an arts background but am finishing up prerequisites and volunteering while working full-time. I have a masters deg...

jbail113 is correct! Direct Entry at other universities (UVA, Toledo, Johns Hopkins, etc) is for students without a nursing background and a bachelors in another field. The name can be confusing for people who are looking strictly for Direct En...

Based on my research, Direct-entry vs PreSpeciality is very similar. Direct Entry is a masters level nursing program for students without any nursing degrees/experience. Vanderbilt's PreSpecialty program is similar in that its for students without an...

Hi everyone, I applied to the PresSpecialty FNP Program. I requested my transcripts on October 15 so hopefully they will arrive soon. Definitely nervous! What is everyone's background and to which other schools did you apply? My professio...

I've applied to UVA and will be applying to Vanderbilt and the University of Toledo. Curious - what is everyone's background?

Hi everyone, I just applied for this cycle. Regarding your interview - how was the process? What kinds of questions were asked? Thanks in advance!

That's great Mikela. I come from an arts background - music specifically. I graduated with my M.A in Arts Administration in May 2019 and currently work in the non-profit world. I've been taking the pre-requisites and volunteering at my local hospital...

Awesome! I literally just sent mine in 5 minutes ago. Mikela, if you don't me asking, what is your professional background?

Hi ralewis, I'm in a similar situation in wanting to shift careers into nursing. I have a B.M. in Music Performance and M.A. in Arts Administration. As someone who works full-time, I knew that this shift would be gradual at first (currently taking p...

I work in the arts now and have a Master's degree. I'm strongly considering a career change into nursing. My research into changing careers has shed light on several different pathways including an ADN, Accelerated BSN, or direct-entry MSN. I've cons...

Thank you all for your valuable insight. It's valuable to hear everyone's experiences and how its shaped their decisions to pursue nursing. It's reassuring to know that there isn't a right/wrong answer here as everyones situation is different. There'...

Hi everyone, For many years I've considered a change into nursing but my current career path in the arts has presented several opportunities that I couldn't refuse. As a 27-year old with 3 years of work experience and a much better understanding of ...
