2013 UPenn BSN/MSN Applicants

Published

Hi Everyone! This topic thread is for those applying to UPENN BSN/MSN program summer 2013. I hope we can create a support network here!

I will be applying to the nurse-midwifery and WHNP program and have begun writing my personal statement. Their application should be completely available July 15th but you should be able to create an account. Good luck everyone!

Has anyone else had problems logging into the upenn website for admissions updates?I use a Mac--I am not sure if that is my problem.

Hi! I have a MAC and I just logged into the website right now. What web browser are you using? UPENN's website doesn't format well in Chrome. I use Safari to check my status.

What website do we use to view admissions updates? Are you talking about the application page at "Apply Yourself"? Or is there somewhere else we can go?

******* said that we would get an email when our admissions decisions were ready and that they would be posted on our Penn Portal.

Oh! Of course, Penn Portal! Duh, silly me- I almost forgot about that. Eek! Getting excited/terrified for the next week or two!

I'm so antsy. Does anyone know if we will hear decisions this week?

I think we will. They said "early February" and hinted towards the end of the first week (that's the impression I got). Any day now!! I'm antsy, too!!!

See, I'm not sure if it'll be this week. I was hoping it would be, but now I'm not so sure! I'm leaning towards next week just because I called to ask, and I was told that they would tell us the date we would hear and they would give us some notice. So they could very well do it this week, if they notify us of the date tomorrow, and the date ends up being Friday. But I don't know, I'm just leaning towards next week! But who knows! I'm excited!

Doing ok--just keeping myself distracted with work and leisure activities. I am sure that those of the applicants who are neurotic ad focused enough to have applied to institutions like penn and also keep on this threads will likely get in SOMEWHERE.Have you heard from anyone yet?

Hello! I'm applying for Fall of 2013's MSN program at UPENN. It looks like you all applied to the BSN/MSN program...is that right? Can you throw me any advice?

Also, in the online application there is an area for "Supporting Documents." Any suggestions as to what else to upload aside from certifications and cover letters?

Thanks so much.
