Yale says that it does not mean you've been accepted. I think it's one thing to meet the cut off that the scholarship donor/admissions in general set, and another thing to be accepted into your specific program. I think most grad programs have some level of faculty involvement in admissions? IDK though

I'm glad to hear that it was helpful. Also yes LOL, admissions is its own beast! It was honestly really stressful (more than being a doula imo), so I'm glad to have left it behind. My thoughts on this are just speculation, so also take them with a grain of salt. With that said, I will say that I used to pre-read all of my complete applicants as early as I could and draft notes for them because I knew I would be absolutely crushed once the deadline hit and the majority of applications came in. For context, I worked for one large state school, an alternative liberal arts school, and a little ivy over the years. I can't remember where I saw this, but I had thought Yale said the invites would go out mid to late November so I was surprised when I got one that early. Then I just chalked it up to them spreading out the workload and announcing/advertising the latest dates that applicants would be invited by, but not the earliest. Take a deep breath and relax as best you can- totally easier said than done, I know. Start by congratulating yourself for putting together an application in time! I have to remind myself to chill out regularly. Wishing you (and all of us) the best!

Hey, My app had been in for months and was just verified some time around the 1st of November (I'd have to check my email to be sure). I got an email explicitly stating that the application did not need to be verified to be considered in by the deadline, just complete! I don't blame you for wondering, as I was worried about that too until I got an email about it. Yes I did get an invitation to apply to the CSP, but I'm not sure I would be worried yet if I were you. This is pure speculation on my part, but I'm assuming they are sending out rounds of invitations. The entirety of the applicant pool was not in when they sent out the initial CSP invites on Friday morning. This means they'll probably still need to review all of the other completed apps to see who meets the qualifications and decide who else to invite. This is all guess work on my part (I used to work in undergrad admissions for a while), but doing it this way would break up the work for them. Rather than waiting until after Nov 1st to comb through them all at once, it's possible they were flagging qualified applicants once they were complete, waiting until after Nov 1st to send out the first round of invitations. Every invited applicant will get 7 days to complete it from the day they received the invite, so I wouldn't worry about missing a deadline. In my opinion, the deadline looks like it's a relative one. Im not sure being invited earlier means much. It's just as likely an opportunity to be rejected for it sooner too. With that said, I would be surprised if they didn't wait to tell everyone at once, even if we were invited at different times. I honestly wouldn't worry too much about what everyone else is saying. If it didn't come from Yale Admissions, I'd note it but not take it to heart. Apologies for the essay and I hope that was helpful.

Hi, I'm an RN-MSN applicant for CNM! I did Parchment for both of my transcripts. One was really fast, and the other took about 8-10 days. I finished writing my app in August since I am currently in nursing school and have an intense job at my local hospital. I knew I couldn't manage working on my application on top of everything else. I had to just force myself to call it done and leave it alone!
