UIC Graduate Entry Program

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?

    sorry I couldn't post yesterday, had a test tonight that needed my full attention. I reiterate everything said by Kwolikowa though. Info session --> one-on-one interview. She definitely read my personal statement because she asked two questions in regards to it; since I prepared heavily though, those questions were anticipated. There was no mention of the number of applicants or admitted students.

    Thanks for the feedback!

    @steve2102 I was told they wouldn't let me do a phone interview for the adult/gerontology acute care NP. I'm so angry because I had to spend about $700 on a flight out to Chicago from Arizona and now I know they would've just let me do a phone one! Hmph!

    Welcome newbies and good luck to those interviewing!

    I guess I gambled because I would not be able to go at all if this didn't happen. From what I was told, those of you that are going there will have a much higher chance of getting in than I will because of this.
