Hi! I'm applying too :) Are you applying anywhere else? I started early on my application and I'm close to being done.

I am applying as well. I am applying to a few direct entry schools and one local BSN.

Yes, I'm applying to a few other schools: Yale, Columbia, and some other BSN programs like MakeMeAMidWife.

I just interviewed for the Psych Np program at UPENN. I should hear back within the next couple of weeks regarding their decision. Also, I thought the interview was really laid back. They just asked me about any questions I had, and why I wanted to go to UPENN.

SethD are you applying for BSN/ MSN program or are you already a nurse and going back for specialty? I ask because I'm surprised to hear interviews are already being conducted.. Thanks and best of luck!

Seth, were you applying to the direct entry BSN/MSN or are you already a nurse? Sorry to ask the same question twice I am just also curious!

Good luck to everyone submitting their application this week! What specialty did you apply to?

Hi Everyone,

Hope the applications are going well! I am applying to the AGNP Primary Care program. Just making some of the final edits to my essay...

Does anyone know the hard deadline for turning it in? I got the email about the deadline being October 15, but it didn't give any exact time, which I found a bit confusing. I'm just assuming it is 11:59 EST on October 15, and I am trying to get my application in tonight just to be on the safe side.

How is everyone feeling?

Good luck!!

Audrey

Hi Audrey,

I believe you are correct!

I'm applying to the Nurse Anesthetist program. I'm feeling okay, but I've been trying to get a hold of someone in the admissions office for over a week.

Did anyone else have trouble with a fee waiver? They sent me one for visiting back in April. I tried to use it when submitting last night and get "invalid code" notices so I just had to submit via credit card. The website was unhelpful.
