Something to think about for LeaDS folks... a certain number of applicants in other specialties who don't make the cut will get offered a spot in LeaDS. It might make sense for the SON to know how many of those people accept/decline before moving for...

I wouldn't panic. Last year I didn't get an interview until this time, and I interviewed mid dec for PMHNP. Ultimately I was referred to LeaDS and interviewed for that in January. People got letters to the tune of "thank you for your application but....

Were interviews today, or Dec 14th? Good luck to all. About healthcare experience.. they score your resume/CV, and that's where the experience factors in. But we aren't given a matrix to know exactly what it's worth. When I applied previously, someo...

No schedule here. Which track did the two of you apply to?

As far as I am aware, the scoring process does not factor in masters or doctoral degrees. When I applied last year, I was two classes off from finishing my masters -- when I asked what I could do to improve my application, "Graduate with your masters...

BrenBren02, may I ask -- what discouraged you? Do you intend to enroll in the post masters certificate after graduating?

The SON takes all 3000+ level courses an applicant has taken in their academic career and, based on attempted hours and earned grades, arrive at each student's workable GPA for scoring. The average GPA of accepted psych students (overall) is 3.7 I w...

LeaDS has many more seats than the other tracks. Not everyone who truly wants LeaDS will get a shot due to the seat being offered to other students, but not every student who is offered LeaDS as a second chance will take it. Most applicants have inve...

Hello, Rae. What concentration are you intending? I applied last year and was accepted to LeaDS, though my original designation was PMHNP. As you've already read a bunch of threads I just want to drop some stats that people generally have questions...

I found out I am waitlisted also for FPMHNP in addition to admitted to LeaDS.

For those waiting, I imagine there will be another wave after Feb 12th as that's the deadline for a response. Some are sure to decline and it would free up some spots (:

I intend to pursue the post masters.... unless I start working and just love the heck out of something else. I'm still pretty open minded about that possibility.

I was accepted to LeaDS. I will also be deferring admission, so -- good luck to all who are awaiting a decision!

I'm taking pharm in the spring, too. And yes... January is agonizingly slow while December gave me whiplash. Does anyone know if having to finish up prereqs lowers our score?

Exactly!

I just got the email today -- I only meant that for those who had not heard anything back or interviewed at all, there is a deadline the SON is shooting for so they may want to inquire quickly. Did you interview for PMHNP or did you switch to LeaDS ...

Oh, I also got an email to schedule the LeaDS interview (I'm going forward with that). They are aiming to complete those by January 7th. One or two of you have mentioned not hearing back -- I urge you to contact someone so that if a mistake has been ...

FYI, for those of you who got the email about also being considered for LeaDS; the coordinator had this to say "You are correct, you are being considered for the FPMHNP waitlist and acceptance to LeaDs. Decisions will be late Jan. or early Feb." ...

I am currently in a master's program. I could double up if I had to in order to graduate prior to matriculation... but the field experience would really, really suck. I have not been informed that deferment is contingent upon an unforeseen crisis, th...

No backups this year. I intend to defer and this is the only program I am aware of allows that. Next year, if I don't get a spot this year, will be a different story. You?

I also got this email. Are you guys willing to consider leads?

Emb, it was a blur to me too! I only know because I sent my husband a text message before the writing thing and then again when done, so I could estimate. I fingerprint friday so I am not sure what kind of confirmation we can expect. Where is every...

BTW if anybody has prereqs this semester, transcripts are required by Jan 6th!! Just a reminder, or if you didn't get the email.

Allisonnf, ask Tracy to check on things for you. You never know but you definitely want to check before they start making decisions!! Good luck to you. NP interview lasted about an hour and a half, with a former faculty member. Short brown hair lady...

I felt very good about the interview! It was so very laid back and I got the sense that the interviewers truly were looking at us from the big picture vantage point. For those who applied for PMHNP with interviews coming up, or lurking for upcoming ...
