waitlisted, and bummed about it. I have been in school a year and a half to make the prereqs in time.

trying to figure out what I did wrong or if I'm really unlucky.

anybody know how many waitlisted students get in?

congrats to those who got in

@ytooter UMN asked us to accept or decline in the next 2 weeks, but the formal deadline is April 15th. The number of waitlisted students that get in is completely dependent on how many people decline their offer for admission. I hope you get in; I know the prereqs are a lot of time and money.

Has anyone gotten financial aid info yet?

Still waiting too for aid. Did anyone else apply for direct admission to DNP?

I got off the waitlist! Not surprised since April 15th was the deadline to answer. What a relief.

Can you guys share what your GPA was and if you took the GRE (I think they made it optional now)?

I am hoping to apply next year.

congrats everyone who got accepted.

Did anyone else apply for direct admission to the DNP? I'm disappointed in how much they have been pushing back decisions, I didn't think I'd still be waiting for admissions people in May ?

On another note, does anyone know when we'll hear back about financial aid for the Master's?

This AND did anyone get a "welcome email" with the student check list? They said they'd send it out in April, but I haven't go it. I came in from the waitlist though too so maybe that is part of it.

I don't remember ever getting an email but if you log into your my umn account there's a list of to do activities on canvas? Maybe that's what they were talking about

hey @ktpineapple I'm in the MN program and applied for direct admission to DNP for midwifery! I totally feel your pain on waiting for decisions. I'm thinking about emailing them but don't want to seem pushy...

@tcoop I emailed a couple times with no response so I finally called the office today and they said they were still working on DNP decisions. Then just a bit ago I got a very informal looking email inviting me to interview (finally!!) but they were still working on times and such. Seems like they're just really behind for some reason, but they are still working on it!
