UIC GEP 2011 Cohort

fer1220 · May 18, 2010

Tulip and Sunshine, I finally received a letter to my house, but it was just the same form letter from the e-mail that we received with no additional information... I guess all we can do is keep waiting...

Abosslet, I haven't heard anything from the PNP wait list yet, but I am not sure about the other specialties..

Same here...same letter to my house about two days ago and no other word yet.

I also got the letter at home. I think you can find out where you are on the list if you call. My sister applied for a different program a year ago at UIC and was on the waiting list. They told her where she was on it.

Congratulations everyone! I would like to let you all know that there is a Facebook group entitled "UIC GEP 2011".

Hi everyone! Congrats to everyone who got in the program! Just wanted to let anyone who is on the wait list know that they accept people throughout the entire period leading up to the start of the program. I know people who were 5th on their wait list and ended up getting in mid-October. Hang in there!!

Hey all,

Just wanted to share with you the message I received from the school of nursing.

"As soon as a spot opens, I will notify applicants. However, I'm not going to be proving any further information about the wait list."

At least this is some info! I hope all are well.

Thanks for sharing your message Delousch! I guess all we can do is wait. I know someone who was on the waiting list last year and was accepted in late- August! Did you apply anywhere else? I only applied to UIC but plan to apply to DePaul, Rush and Marquette. Good luck and hang in there!

Thanks for the info,...I've been meaning to call/email to ask that very question and have just not gotten around to it,...so thanks for sharing. Guess there's really no need! Anyhow, good luck to everyone waiting.

Hello I am an undergraduate student at uic majoring in psychology and pre nursing. i plan to get my bachelor degree in psychology and apply for the GEP program midwifery/women's health. I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice for this program. i am also looking for a mentor that is currently in the program or has graduated. This is my dream job and i would really appreciate the help. I am currently a cna so i am getting experience in the health field and i have volunteered in the NICU as a baby cuddler. I am a junior at uic now.
