  1. Hello there and happy new year! Wondering if any current OHSU students (in particular any DNP-CNM students!) can offer guidance on a few topics: (1) How did you feel about the interview process?...
  2. UCSF MEPN 2023

    Wow, I somehow missed the Dec 15 announcement on the UCSF website saying that MEPN is now off the table until at least fall 2025. Back in September, when they cancelled this year's MEPN application...
  3. Yale GEPN 2023

    I don't think you can go wrong either way. I deliberately avoided a suit/collared shirt because I'm a lawyer and was hoping to kind of downplay that side of me. I felt like a sweater would help me...
  4. Yale GEPN 2023

    Last few years were Feb 1 (2021 and 2022) and January 26 (2020). I believe the final interviews are next Friday (unless they've had to push some to the following week), and they said they'd need at...
  5. Yale GEPN 2023

    Ha! I put on a light grey silk shirt this morning, then immediately realized I was going to sweat through it, so changed to a dressy, dark blue
  6. Yale GEPN 2023

    I suggest researching and considering those questions as they relate to your specialty and to healthcare more broadly. "Why nursing?" is partly asking you what you understand about the nursing...
  7. Yale GEPN 2023

    I did not have any questions specifically pulled from my essays for the CSP, but various questions definitely touched on some of the themes in those questions/essays. I did not bring up the...
  8. Yale GEPN 2023

    One more thing I forgot to mention: my interviewer brought up (I did not ask) and shared that she wants candidates to know that the interview is just one part of the application process. It generally...
  9. Yale GEPN 2023

    I just had my interview! I was super excited-nervous (and a little sweaty). I would describe it as an energetic conversation between two like-minded, passionate people who believe in midwifery and...
  10. Yale GEPN 2023

    Huge congratulations potentialpmhnp! So exciting. I love reading folks' feedback and feeling the enthusiasm within this group! Good luck, everyone! Sending happy thoughts, good energy and lots of...
  11. Yale GEPN 2023

    My interview is this Thursday for CNM/WHNP! I asked about the interviewer and ZM in admissions said they now do not share the interviewer name prior because the faculty are practicing clinicians,...
  12. Yale GEPN 2023

    How is interview prep going for everyone? My interview is in a few days and I am so excited! My list of questions is absurdly long--I could spend eight hours asking questions and not be done! I was...
  13. Yale GEPN 2023

    Hello all and happy new year! Admissions figures shift from year to year based on how many applicants there are overall and how many people apply to each specialty, in addition to how many seats...
  14. Yale GEPN 2023

    I did as well! Sending good energy and hugs to everyone on this
  15. Yale GEPN 2023

    Hi Wesley! Thank you for offering the AMA. I do not have any specific questions because your team has offered so many wonderful opportunities to advise and support us on the path to applying. I would...
  16. MDE/DNP Columbia 2023

    Yep, mine looks like it's all complete! I was told explicitly that the portal would stay open for letters of rec for about a week after the deadline, so I'm not worried about the LOR that my...
  17. MDE/DNP Columbia 2023

    Woohoo! Congrats! Would you mind sharing when you submitted your materials? I have not heard anything yet. I submitted everything on September 29, but two of my letters of rec weren't submitted...
  18. I submitted mine a couple of days ago! I started feeling like every time I re-read my essays and resume I was tempted to keep making changes and keep uploading a new version to the portal. So, it felt...
  19. MDE/DNP Columbia 2023

    I just [very nervously!] submitted my Columbia application! Now, for the looooong
  20. Yale GEPN 2023

    I'm mostly done with my essays, but am still finishing the short one on Personal Characteristics. Anyone else feel like 600 words was WAY too little space to address all the questions for the...
  21. UCSF MEPN 2023

    I encourage everyone to email (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME) and any other contacts you may have at UCSF. I think it's critical that they hear from each person who has worked tirelessly toward applying to...
  22. UCSF MEPN 2023

    Uff. This is heartbreaking. I've been checking the website every day. My read is no fall 2023 MEPN cohort. Sending hugs to everyone feeling crushed by this news. @Nursee2be any chance they made...
  23. UCSF MEPN 2023

    Thank you so much for taking the time to offer your insights. So appreciated. It sounds like the first quarter has been super crazy. I'm sure you're looking forward to that first break - a...
  24. Whoa! You've already submitted? That's fast. I'm nowhere near ready to submit. I'm a lawyer (corporate/capital markets/emerging companies) and am transitioning my career toward sexual and...
