Normal mail...post office delivered to your mailbox mail :) Rather than an e-mail.

I'm deciding Penn vs JHU. JHU appears to be significantly cheaper. I'm torn between schools.

Hang in there everyone! You will find out in the near future. Just remember we have been inducing this stress among ourselves by talking on these forums...otherwise we wouldn't even know they were/are calling. Best of luck! Will see you on orientation/accepted student day.

Just got the call...accepted BSN/MSN for Fall with Fuld Scholarship.

hopeful, i have not.

Has anyone received a Fuld Fellowship?

I'm a BSN/MSN applicant. Hoping to hear good news tomorrow. Did anyone receive an acceptance phone call on Friday from an admissions officer other than the one that interviewed them? I interviewed in November, but not with the admissions officer that represents my geographic location.

joe_mamma - I was accepted into the second degree program at penn state and also the bsn/msn at upenn. Also waiting to hear from jhu. At the end of the day, even if accepted into Duke, I probably would choose one of these 3 programs over Duke. Penn State is my second home and the program is financially a great deal (~35k in-state tuition for bsn) and upenn and jhu have the added luxury of being placed into a master's program from the start. I have no desire in going through this application/interview process again, ha.

I retracted my interview at Duke...hope this opens a spot for somebody on the wait list!

pink_zebra - I was just accepted into the BSN/MSN Program...anesthesia track. I have a few questions for you...could you e-mail me at [email protected]? I do not have enough posts on allnurses to send private messages.

Just got letter of acceptance from my specialty - nurse anesthesia!!

feminista_siempre - I received a similar e-mail regarding my financial aid forms (last Friday)...hoping that means good news tomorrow! I'm a former Penn State grad and I also encounter Pennsylvania residents that confuse UPenn and PSU. Frustrating, but gives me a great opportunity to talk about the positive aspects of both schools. Best of luck to everyone tomorrow.

I'll be attending on February 22nd. If anyone wants to meet up the night before, let me know.

Yeah, the timeline with Duke is very tough. I hope they make admission decisions shortly after the interviews.

Received an e-mail from my admissions officer today. The e-mail stated that my application had been reviewed and is complete. Applications will be sent out for faculty review after the new year. Tentative dates for ABSN interviews are Feb. 22, 25, and March 1, 2013.

nik5849 - send me an email at [email protected]

nik5849 - i'm also interviewing for nurse anesthesia...not too sure what to expect in terms of the number of interviewee's and acceptance rate for the same reason - the mandatory in-person. Let me know if you want to meet up before hand.

atomicgirl - My transcripts were also not received. I wrote Filomena today and I will let you know what she says. Do you have any classes "in-progress"? I do. I wonder if they are referring to the transcripts we will send at the end of the semester.

ashley_nicole - I went on the SEPTA website and it looks like I could take the Market-Frankford Line from 30th and get off on 34th. Does that sound about right?

I'm opting for the in-person interview on Dec. 10th. Do any current students know if it's safe to walk from 30th Street Station to the campus? I'm taking a train from Lancaster, PA. Don't know if walking is OK or if I should catch a cab.

Pizza...i think the tuition for the summer- and fall-entry programs are identical. I'm leaning towards the Fall start date...what's 4 months in the grand scheme of things?

I received an interview offer this morning for nurse anesthesia! It came via e-mail around 10:15am EST. Nurse anesthesia is a Dec. 10th interview, so hopefully everyone will still hear about the later interview date! Good luck to everyone. Hang in there.

My "myportal" also says tracking not available. I think it will continue to say that until there is a change in the status.

Anyone applying nurse anesthesia?
