UMASS GEP application 2012

lovepink01 · Apr 6, 2012

Thank you. Yes, I had an interview last week. They interview selected applicants then make a decision. So everyone who is accepted got an interview but I guess not everyone who is interviewed gets accepted.

lovepink,

when you interviewed did they tell you you would hear this week or next? I had an interview last week but they said that they only meet twice a week so I wouldn't hear a decision until a week from thursday so I am a little confused.

also what track did you get into?

and of course congrats by the way!

They told me I would hear by Thursday the 5th or Thursday the 12th. As she wasn't sure which Thursday the committee met. I heard on Thursday the 5th. So I am assuming they met on the 5th of April and then she called me after. I am doing Adult/Gero. Thank you!! :specs:

Congrats to all who have heard of their acceptance! My question is, has anyone heard of being waitlisted or rejected? I sent 2 emails and called and it seems I'm being ignored. I have to send in my deposit to Simmons by April 16th, and while I'm happy to go there, it's WAY more money. I'm assuming I was rejected, but at this point it would just be nice to know! =P

i think umass is really behind on the admissions timeline. Even if you were to get an interview this coming week there is a chance they wouldn't be able to tell you until two weeks later. :/ rough it out until the last day maybe.

They called me

Thats great. They told me I would get a letter in the mail but I'm still waiting. Im not sure if I am attending yet. Is is your first choice or do you have another school in mind? When and where did you get your undergrad?

Hey Lovepink01! What other school are you interested in? Have you made your final decision? I am hoping to apply to UMass next year and would love to hear your thought process for choosing or not choosing UMass.

Thanks!

Hey eastcoastbound

I am interested in a few other schools but I really liked Umass because it is one of the only graduate nursing schools in Ma that is associated with a major medical institution. It has a great reputation and I great program from what I can see.

I am still trying to make my decision and I have a lot of things to consider. I have to decide soon though!! :)

Let me know if you have anymore questions.
