The MEPN deadline is less than 2 months away, so I thought I'd get a thread started for us 2012 hopefuls!
I'm a first time applicant to the WHNP/CNM specialty, and feel like I've been getting ready to submit this application for so long! I've been working abroad for a public health NGO for the past couple of years and am a trained birth doula. I've finished up all of my prereqs and GREs, selected people for recommendations (including a slightly awkward visit to my undergraduate advisor...), so now I'm just drafting my essays. Does anyone even know what the application is supposed to look like this year? I'm just going off samples I've seen from previous years.
Some days I feel sort of confident about my chances, and other days I feel as though this is a total shot in the dark and definitely not going to work out!
Any other hopefuls out there? And anyone know when the application is actually going to open?
At the risk of sounding a little nuts, here's random bit of info: I just tried to sign in to my online account (why?! what am I expecting to have changed there?!) and got the following message:
The following error occoured while completing your request: The Graduate Application is currently being upgraded and will be available again shortly.
An administrator has been notified, please try your request again.
But maybe this means they're actually updating things and we'll get news soon!
