I'm turning down my offer of admission in favor of my #1 school - I was the one who got my offer of admission later than the first round but before the 2nd round so hopefully this opens up another position asap! Best of luck to everyone - hang in the...

I read the first line of that email and all the feeling left my fingertips, it's not even fully back some 40 minutes later. I can't believe this, had to have my coworker come read the email to convince myself this really was real. So who's gonna make...

I'm in for CNM!

Yeah, that email freaked me out for a split second - but seriously - Yale wins the award, out of the schools I have applied to, for being the most conscientious of our feelings. I'm thankful she even let us know that the emails might come out later i...

@Barbaraleev - Weird, I wonder why I never got an email. I'm probably just reading into stuff. My interview was really strange and only took like 4 minutes, except for the questions I asked. They only asked me whether I had any experience with grou...

I was waitlisted too for NMW, spent all day convinced I was rejected, then I came home to find I had letter in the mailbox. I guess it could be worse. @Barbaraleev - did yours come via email or a paper letter? Does anyone know if they let you know yo...

Well I haven't heard a thing Barbarleev, so I'm guessing I was rejected. Hang in there, I seem to remember several waitlists getting in from this forum in years past.

I just called them. They only accept a "C" (2.0) or higher in all prereqs and you have to maintain a "B" (3.0) GPA once you're in the program. Whew, I can stop freaking out now and focus on this stupid class.

I hope your right because it's almost unbearable thinking that after all these years of hard work and high grades the last undergrad class I take could stand between me and getting into this program.

I just went back through the website looking to see if all the prerequisites had to have a "B" or higher. I'm taking Statistics and I think I'm looking at the 2nd "C" out of my 60 odd classes. Besides the fact that this is a massive blow to my ego, I...

Or, there is not real method to this madness and they are like me sending out publication acceptance memos at work. I try and get them out in one day, but it always ends up spreading out over a week because I have lots of things to do - including hau...

My interview was on the 6th and they told me 2-4 weeks. I'll allow myself to start some seriously obsessed email refreshing on February 21st.

I agree, Marquette wins the confusing award so far. I am complimented to hear I may have been considered part of the first round. I still have considerable reservations about spending $50,560 and not have a guarantee I'd get into the midwifery progra...

It came to my regular gmail account and it was sent at 7:16 am PST - so that's 9:16 Milwaukee time.

I just got accepted. I hadn't been tracking with this thread for a while and thanks to Yale and Vanderbilt have March 1 on the brain as D-day. I was totally shocked to see an email in my inbox. I'm assuming this constitutes the 2nd round, I have to ...

I interviewed on Monday and they didn't ask me anything about why I selected my specialty. Given, my personal statement is fairly passionate, but my interview lasted only 5 minutes (except for the part where I asked them questions.) They asked me thr...

@simplekategirl, I talked to the director of admissions on my interview day and she first told me that "Yale is very self-selecting" but then she admitted "some people will be disappointed." Which I found pretty frustrating. I worked out at one point...

Thanks guys - I feel better. I'm off to find something to cover my upper half with.

Oh great! Now we're back to the whole - "should I wear a suit" question. We don't "do" suits in Seattle. I work for a world renowned cancer research center here and I go to work in jeans and ironic granny sweaters everyday. And here I was laflaca thi...

I'm interviewing for midwifery as well. A friend of mine interviewed yesterday for midwifery and she said they are interviewing 50 people for 15 spaces. I remember reading somewhere (so take that statistic with a serious grain of salt, because I can'...

Thanks CBlack37! That's great to hear. I'm interviewing on Thursday, you?

I have a question for those of you who live in NYC or New Haven; how feasible is it to take the train from Manhattan up to New Haven the morning of my interview and arrive in time for check in at 8:30? Clearly, according to Metro-North, I will arrive...
