  1. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Honestly it varies. Everyone studies different amounts and in different ways. Weeks where you don't have exams you study a lot less, and exam weeks you study a lot more (most weeks your first semester...
  2. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Hey all, Congrats so much on getting in! As category X mentioned, we've been on spring break the last couple weeks, but we restart Monday, so I have to get back in that mindset :). I can really only...

  4. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Congrats to all of you who are done with your interviews! It's an awesome accomplishment, and now as you all know, you'll have to endure the torture of waiting to find out. :) Those of you I met seem...
  5. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Hi,So I can only speak to midwifery - but there were 12 matriculants for 46 interviewees last year. I'm not sure how many they accept over that 12 though, but I would guess a couple. I also know there...
  6. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Hey guys! Sorry I don't remember what I posted about exactly, but if you have new questions I'm happy to answer them to the best of my ability. Good luck on your interviews over the next couple weeks!...
  7. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Notifications haven't been sent out...she just mentioned that December "interview month" is the month that you guys find out if you receive one. No worries
  8. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Oh, and to simplekategirl, I unfortunately still don't know any specifics about what happened to the AGNP program. If adult is what you were most interested in, I'd stick with any specialty that might...
  9. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Hi Jen, Sorry it's taken me so long to respond; we've been busy with finals and Thanksgiving and such. Basically - I'd describe the program as absolutely wonderful. It is extremely academically...
  10. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    The AGNP track is evidently discontinued...I'm not sure what exactly that means...though I'm sure I'll find out in class today :). As for the sizes...Family is the largest this year with 17...
  11. Yale GEPN Applicants 2012

    Hey guys! I'm currently a GEPN who was in your shoes last year. If you have any questions about the whole process I'm happy to help! Good luck in your applications
  12. Should I go to Yale's CNM program?

    Hey Dancingnurse, No, there is no formal dual specialty program, like you mentioned, but I do believe you can hold off and do the additional coursework and clinical work before graduating with your...
  13. Should I go to Yale's CNM program?

    Well, we only started last week and clincals begin in a week, so I can't speak too much to it, but so far I absolutely love it. The faculty are absolutely amazing, and the community of students is...
  14. Yale GEPN Chances

    Very true. Also, the only thing that Yale officially states regarding GRE scores is "While we have no official GRE minimums, we consider a score of 500 on the verbal and quantitative sections and...
  15. Columbia ETP Program 2012 entry

    The midwifery and anesthesia specialties are the most competitive, so in my opinion every little bit counts - especially since they don't interview. I think work as a doula or other experience is...
  16. SUNY Downstate-Midwifery: Anti-Nursing?

    I'm pretty sure people are talking about two different types of direct entry here. There are obviously the direct-entry midwifes (CPMs, LMs, CMs, etc), but I think by direct-entry in this case,...
  17. OHSU Accelerated Bachelors to Masters 2011

    I got in off the waitlist about a week ago. I'm probably not going to accept the spot because I think I'll be headed to Yale - so keep your hopes up, people definitely are getting in off the
  18. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    Congrats on your acceptance :). I'm going to be attending as a GEPN midwifery specialty this fall and I'm so excited!! On my interview day, one of the current midwifery students mentioned that there...
  19. Yale GEPN Chances

    I think you sound competitive. A lot hinges on your recommendations, your essay, and your chosen specialty, however. Also, you didn't mention your GRE score - but if its in their range of competitive...
  20. Should I go to Yale's CNM program?

    Have you figured out if you can defer your admission? This could be possible, and it seems like it may be the best of both worlds. I'm starting Yale's GEPN CNM program this fall and am incredibly...
  21. Columbia ETP Program 2012 entry

    Correct. Columbia does not conduct interviews. You submit your application by November 15th, and they respond in early February. No phone or in person interview. Of the six programs I applied to, it...
  22. Columbia ETP Program 2012 entry

    To me, the packages were comparable. Columbia's first year is more expensive, but they give you a bigger need-based scholarship. For Columbia, a significant portion of the cost of attendance must...
  23. Columbia ETP Program 2012 entry

    From what I understand about the program, you do all your classes at Columbia. Some days you have clinical, some days you have classes (about 2-3 days per week) - but it's not distance learning. I...
  24. Columbia ETP Program 2012 entry

    Hi guys - I applied to (and was accepted) to Columbia for 2011. I decided to go elsewhere, but if you have any questions I'm happy to help. Good luck with all your applications, I don't miss filling...
  25. Yale GEPN Applicants 2011

    Hi! Congrats on getting in :) It's pretty standard to have only half the cost of attendance covered in your package. That's what the GradPlus loans (or private loans) are for. I just sent in my...
