University of Virginia - Direct Entry CNL 2021

Published

Hi everyone, 

I saw in years past that there were threads for people who applied to specific programs so I figured I'd carry on the tradition. Is anyone else applying for the Direct entry CNL program at UVA? The application deadline is October 1st. I'm looking to submit mine by the end of this week. 

Talk soon!

Awesome! I literally just sent mine in 5 minutes ago. Mikela, if you don't me asking, what is your professional background?

I just graduated from VCU in May with a degree in exercise science! I’m a CNA but haven’t worked too much with it because I got it before college and then didn’t have much time/didn’t know if it’s what I wanted to pursue yet. I’ve been shadowing all Summer with a PA and have participated in a study abroad community health program. I’m excited but nervous! LOL. What about you?

That's great Mikela. I come from an arts background - music specifically. I graduated with my M.A in Arts Administration in May 2019 and currently work in the non-profit world. I've been taking the pre-requisites and volunteering at my local hospital. I've been considering a career change for a while now! I'm also excited but really nervous. I'm originally from Northern VA but work/live in Ohio right now. My biggest impression from the CNL program at UVA is that their students come from all different backgrounds. Hoping for the best! Let's stay in touch during the application process.

Yes! Best of luck to you as well.. I'm anxious to hear back in November! Definitely keep in touch :) I think you are right about it being a very potluck sort of student body for this program!

I’m nervous too! I hope we find out about interviews soon. Have you applied to other schools?

I had applied to the Sentara college and got in, but UVA is my dream school. I also would have to commute an hour to get there since I live in Hampton but their school is in Chesapeake. I am also applying to VCUs Accelerated program is I don't get into UVA. How about you?

I applied to Johns Hopkins, Emory, UVA, and Augusta University! Congratulations on your admission to Sentara!!

That is amazing! What would be your first choice if you get into all 3?
