there is a pdf file available on the website for the msn program from wgu in education that details the course outline with course summaries and exactly how they are assessed. i would assume there is a similar pdf for the msn leadership program.
I interviewed last year and it was really informal. I agree with whomever said to have questions ready--I wish I had had more. That being said, good luck to you all. I don't think the interviews can really break you, but I do think it's a great op...
I'll be there at the open house. If I'm not mistaken, i think most everyone gets an interview. Its a good time to get your questions answered and show yourself off.
Between the interviews and the admissions decision at the end of January, not much happens. I think I had to turn in a midterm grade report for the classes that were in progress. I submitted my financial aid information after the interview. It was...
I actually just started a research job with one of my summer professors. Not hard at all, and a lot of interesting work happening. I think Penn is #1 in NIH funding.
I think that Penn really wants us all to succeed in the program, and I feel like there is plenty of support available for those that need it. So far my experience has been positive. Aside from me questioning my decision and my abilities every so oft...
Hey guys- I'm a Penn student in the accelerated cohort that just started a few months back. I was in your shoes a year ago getting recommendations and my app together. Feel free to PM me with questions.

Chloecatrn I get what you're trying to say. I also think that nurses would be more empowered to accept and fight for better wages if they knew what the market was. Hospitals have long had the upper hand in regards to nurses' wages. If people were ...

for me reading was key. the ny times, ap english style books, and studying vocabulary over time; don't procrastinate. i got a 650 verbal--i didn't think it was a great score until i saw that it was in the 93rd percentile or something. but when the...
i applied to the program. the start dates for the program depend on how many prereqs you have completed before you enroll. those that start in the summer have taken more prereqs, and complete their BSN in 18 months. the fall start is more like a re...

i applied like jan 12 or something. i saw it on opus about a week and a half or two weeks ago, much to my surprise. i got the acceptance letter in the mail a few days after i saw it online. then earlier this week i got an email saying decisions we...

marinara, from reading threads in previous years, depositing at two schools is not uncommon, especially due to FA issues. you'll just lose out on the money is all. no school can make you go if you choose to rescind your intent of enrollment. i'd...

i made my decision. my check is in the mail to penn. i'll probably be in on the chat tonight and i'll definitely be there in a 2 1/2 weeks. for a broke *ss person like me that $400 was hard. but i had the biggest smile on my face as i dropped i...

i'm coming in, but from pittsburgh. i'd have loved an I95 buddy, marinara. i think i'm staying with a friend in philly the night before. as for the interview, it was very informal. i think i stammered, and i got in. i got the normal questions, ...

i am going to the open house. i registered right after i got in. i am kind of a geek like that. i really wanted to check out the campus again when they just had to sell themselves to me, and not the other way around. i also wanted to meet my futu...

I got about $37K for the penn grant, and the rest in grants, loans, and work study (for real though? won't it be hard to work during the program?). i am an independent student, and i quit my old job to go back to school, knocking me into a lower in...

one good point is that a lot of applicants to competitive schools receive multiple acceptances. i am sure that many offered a spot to penn will turn it down in favor of johns hopkins or ucsf or columbia. i don't know if i'm getting my schools confu...

compared to some other schools, we get financial aid info fairly quickly from penn. i applied RD to jhu and emory, but penn is my first choice, even though i wanted to get out of pennsylvania, penn pulled me back!

i would try logging into the my penn admissions portal using your old username and password and i think there's a help section there. then go back to the first site. good luck. i got accepted! now have to wait for word on the fnp portion!
