Hi there! I am part of the FNP specialty and I was accepted with a 3.7 undergrad and a 4.0 in prerequisites. All of my prerequisites were completed at the time of application and I also made sure to apply by the priority deadline as it was strongly encouraged by the admissions staff. I know that they consider the whole application and want to see solid essays. If you feel like you are lacking in a specific area based on your stats, I believe you can make up for it in your essays. The program has been going great! It has been more manageable that I imagined, which was a nice surprise. I've made it my top priority, which has allowed me to stay on top of everything and truly immerse myself in the material. Even though we move fast, I have learned an immense amount of information and it has been pretty surreal to be able to apply that in the clinical setting. I am really glad I chose Vanderbilt. This program has been around for decades and they definitely know what they're doing. If you choose to come here, I do not think you'll be disappointed! I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions. ?

I interviewed as well and have not heard anything, but I'm worried because some people have gotten acceptances. So does this mean that the review process is finished? So weird that they didn't send out official rejection letters...

I am very confused, I am assuming they are still in the process of reviewing interviews since rejection emails have not been sent out? The process is already stressful enough as is, they should update us at to what exactly is going on.

I tried to look into the camera the whole time! I feel like eye contact is super important...

Just finished my interview! Good luck to everyone else and looking forward to hopefully receiving an acceptance! ?

Same here! We should make a facebook page for those admitted if there's not one already! It would be awesome to get to know everyone before the program starts! ? Thank you! Congrats to you!

I just checked my portal and there was a status update! I'm accepted for FNP! ?

ME TOO I keep checking the portal even though they said they were sending out emails... ugh

Getting so nervous! Fingers crossed we all find out tomorrow! Good luck to everyone!

Feeling thankful to have received an interview spot! Good luck to everyone during their interviews! ?

Looking forward to hearing back-hopefully sooner rather than later. Good luck to everyone who applied! ?

Could be due to a different time zone if you’re not located in PST?

Is the application due at the end of day on Thursday the 31st or by 11:59 tomorrow on Wednesday? Curious because on the website it just says due by the 31st.

It would be crazy for sure!! It would be so nice to get to know someone before starting the program. Yes I am in San Diego right now, but ready for a change. ?
