Hi folks,
Thinking about applying to UIC's GEP program. Anybody here applied and was accepted? What were your stats?
My stats: 3.2 Overall GPA/3.5 Sci BA in Sociology. Office Manager in home health care, tech in a medical equipment co, medical assistant (no cert) in dr's office and later office manager there. Volunteering in Nursing Home around 120 hours...
From what I can tell on their website, after completing the NCLEX, you immediately start the master portion of the program. Is this correct?
I hope so too! Still keeping my fingers crossed that we hear something by the end of the week, because then it will be April already! @sittenfelt - i feel you! my first year without a spring break too and it sucks! But I took a couple days off work and am going back to Connecticut with my bf to visit his family for Easter. Road trip! hah just for a long weekend.
Where do you work?
Sorry to give you guys bad news but I talked to the nursing department and they told me that applications wont even be looked at until April 5th...
Welcome! Thanks for informing us.
What speciality did you apply ?
That's really weird, I just called to double check (sorry I am very skeptic and don't believe anything until I hear or see it)... Anyways, they said the interviews will take place from April 5-25. With that said, applications will be looked at before the fifth.
I heard interview notifications will go out next week-but my source was a current UIC GEP nursing student-so I am not sure how reliable but she asked one of her professors last week for me (her specialty is PNP). I am still hoping we hear sooner--but at least it is almost April. I hope everyone has a good week. I am so anxious to hear back.

I really wish we had a concrete interview decision date. The wait is killing me! And it would be SO nice to find out during Spring Break!
