I'm starting the CNM program in UPenn this summer fulltime, 18 months. It's a dual program for CNM/Women's NP.
Wanted to share this info with you all. For those looking to see how the program goes, please feel free to email me.
I meant to go into the CNM program, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the Women's Health is built into the CNM program so that you can end up with a dual degree. It was very forward thinking of UPenn - to make sure that you can be licensed as a woman's NP as well.
Wish me luck.

Good luck to you!
Just remember, the down side of dual certifications is that you will need to pay for two certification exams ($$$$) and for maintaining two certifications (also $$$$).

Done. look forward to talking to you.
Hi Epiphany,
My friend has quite a few questions for you. Any thing you can tell her will be helpful. It is always a nervous time to prepare for an interview. Thank you in advance, and I hope you are having a great trip!
I have not posted anything here in a long time. You can reply to a private message (I forget how.).
What is the interview process?
What questions did they ask? Do I need to go over the OB textbook to prepare for some questions should they ask?
How many interviews did you go through? How long did it take?
Would you mind to tell me something about Barbara Reale? It is very likely that she will be my interviewer.
Any suggestions for preparing for the interview?
How is the OB/GYN program? Do you like it so far?
Do you think it is possible to do the program full-time while working full-time?
Thank you so much.

Hi epiphany,
I'm very happy for you and you're accomplishment. I have been interested in applying to UPenn for the dual degree ever since I started my BSN. I basically have the same questions that the user name: rchamp59, had for you.
I was told by someone at UPenn that if your GPA is at least a 3.0 you won't have to take the entrance exam, do you know anything about that?
You can feel free to let me know any other info that might be helpful
to me in my application process to UPenn.- Thanks in advance
I'll also accept any input from anyone who know anything about UPenn's dual degree program or any other midwifery program...thnxs.
