I could not find a post for the 2021 DNP applicants at University of Michigan, so I wanted to make one. I applied for the DNP Midwifery program, and I have submitted my KIRA interview. I am hoping to hear back soon about an in person interview, if selected.
I wanted to know what specialties everyone is applying to, and what they have heard thus far regarding their admissions? We can all be nervous here, together.
Also, if anyone has attended their CNM program, do you have any tips or advice?
For anyone that applied to the CNM program and was curious what the admissions decision timeline looks like here is the information I got from the Graduate Admissions team:
"Applications are reviewed by the Admissions Office committee. Once the admission office finalized its review, it is sent to the lead faculty for a review. The midwifery faculty usually meet weekly to review applicants. For applicants that they are interested in, they will then ask the admissions office to forward on your Kira Assessment video.
From all of that information, the midwifery faculty will make a decision. Some applicants will be asked to come for a zoom interview - which will take place the week of February 15th . But not all applicants need an interview. Interviews are truly for individuals who the faculty feel they need more information prior to making a final decision. All applicants who applied by the early decisions will hear from us by early to mid March."
Hopefully this helps with the nerves and clears things up some regarding the process!

I inquired about it because I couldn't find any information on their website or their FAQ section regarding this process. Plus, my family keeps asking me when I will know and I wanted to have some solid information to provide them rather than the guesstimate I have been telling them.

Yeah that was a good idea, thanks so much for passing it on ?
Nothing yet! I believe interview requests are to be sent out next week, if I'm not mistaken. But, totally correct me if I'm wrong. They may already be requesting depending on program!

That makes sense! I heard Feb 15th but I wasn't sure whether interviews were being held that week or if they would start to invite people that week. I am just so anxious LOL
I just received a request to interview for the Midwifery program this morning. So, at least for that program it looks like they have started sending them out. I know for this program at least, if you don't receive an interview request, it doesn't mean that you won't receive an acceptance still. I was told that interviews are for those the faculty feels like they need more information on prior to making a final decision. So yay, for feeling even more anxious! LOL
