   I got a call to interview on Friday but haven't received a confirmation email yet. Has anyone received an email confirmation as of yet?

2. Columbia ETP 2016

   richj86 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School Programs

   I got a call from Jose too! This is so surreal. I have no idea what I'm going to do. A few weeks ago, I was waitlisted everywhere. I have since been offered admission at Columbia, UCLA, and Duke. If I'm not mistaking, the bottom line will be about th...

6. UCLA MECN 2016

   richj86 replied to knenopoulos's topic in School Programs

   This is one of the most active threads I've come across this admissions cycle--its awesome! I also received a waitlist offer (I'm number 9) and am hoping for some good news later. For those of you that were accepted (congrats!), do your admission ema...

7. 2016 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

   richj86 replied to Bell427's topic in School Programs

   I've wondered this too. I've been told that NPs would be "grandfathered" in and not be required to get a DNP to practice. A mentor of mine is a PT but she got her degree back before the doctorate became the standard. Coincidentally, she got it as a b...

8. 2016 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

   richj86 replied to Bell427's topic in School Programs

   I've also debated the Penn/Columbia programs and which I would ultimately choose if offered admission to both. I'm still waiting on my Penn decision and have accepted a spot on Columbia's MDE waitlist, so if I'm lucky I'll have the chance to choose. ...

9. UC Davis MEPN

   richj86 replied to Sweetmemi's topic in School Programs

   @ KO_1219 I guess the short answer would be that I'm ready to move on from LA. Don't get me wrong, my undergraduate experience was awesome--definitely no regrets--but I would welcome a change of scenery. I've applied to Penn, Columbia, JHU, OHSU, Du...

10. UC Davis MEPN

    richj86 replied to Sweetmemi's topic in School Programs

    Whoa, only 24? Yeah that sounds like its gonna be pretty competitive. I'm guessing they'll get a lot of applications given that UC Davis also has the only NP/PA program in the country. It would be a good decision for anyone wanting to get acquainted ...

11. UCLA MECN 2016

    richj86 replied to knenopoulos's topic in School Programs

    @leojerz UCLA allows you to take Epidemiology the summer before the program begins (at UCLA). When my girlfriend was admitted to the MECN program, they let her take Epidemiology and Physiology during the summer before the Fall start of the program. H...

    richj86 replied to knenopoulos's topic in School Programs

    Hey everyone! I am also applying for Fall 2016. I'm an undergrad here so it would be super convenient if I get accepted. My girlfriend is in her final year of the MECN program and loves it! Where else is everyone applying to?

13. Applying for Duke ABSN fall 2016

    richj86 replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

    Hey everyone! I am also applying to Duke's Fall 2016 cohort. Other schools I'm applying to are: UCLA's MECN program (I'm an undergrad here), Univ of San Francisco, UC Davis's MEPN program (their first direct entry class begins in 2016), Johns Hopkin...
