University of Washington (UW) Fall 2019 DNP

Published

Hello! I noticed there hasn't been a thread created for applicants of the DNP program at UW for this coming fall and wanted to start one, so we all have some support as we're waiting for the results.

I applied to the AGAC track ? How about everyone else? If anyone else has any helpful information regarding the program or acceptance rate please share!

Can anyone tell me how competitive the DNP program specialties are? I'm wanting psych and I like UW, but man when I look at their 7 page checklist of requirements to apply it seems overwhelming. At least 4 essays, video interviews, extremely detailed resume, an "implicit bias" study, statistics courses updated (mine expired a few years ago, so I would have to redo statistics) extremely specific recommendation letters, on and on.

This is the most strict and specific application I've seen looking across the country. I've only 1 year in psych RN practice and a 3.5 gpa + my life story. Should I bother? It'll take me weeks to do this UW app, but I'd rather not if it's a very low acceptance rate. Feel free to PM me if anyone has some further information or details to guide me, please.

I think they are weeding out those who don't want to do the work to get into the program. The more requirements = the less amount of people will apply making it easier for them to choose.

The question you need to ask is if you want to go to the university. Read their mission/vision, curriculum, and e-mail the school to ask questions about the quality/caliber of the program or other questions about what you're looking to get out of your education.

I believe they take new graduate BSN into their program, so your experience won't necessarily hinder you.
