""This is a pre-licensure program, where all students begin with the BSN portion and upon completion of the BSN become a Registered Nurse (RN) in as little as 15 months.

Students in the BSN/MSN or Hillman BSN-PHD option will continue to the MSN or PhD."

Does this mean that MSN students must pay the $130,000 plus whatever else their MSN here is?: https://www.nursing.upenn.edu/admissions/tuition-and-fees/masters-post-masters-costs/

It’s $130,000 for the BSN plus like 50k for each year of the MSN. It seems unlikely I will attend if I get in anywhere else.

If you don't mind me asking, where are you guys getting 130K from? I'm looking at the 2022 estimated cost of attendance doc for the ABSN portion, and it looks to be just over 170K.

That number includes living expenses

waitlisted ? 

I know it says May 1 is the latest we will hear if we got off the waitlist--anyone know when the years before heard back about the waitlist?

I just looked at last year's post, and that was March 18th.

I'm confused if I was rejected or waitlisted. It said "all available seats have been filled" but then also gave me the option to join the waitlist. I'm confused....

I haven't received a notification via email and now all of a sudden there are 2 applications on my portal for 2022. One still says "Materials Received" and the other new one that suddenly appeared is a copy of my application with "Not Processed".... has this happened to anyone else? I'm worried there's an issue with my application.

Did you apply after October 15? Those who received decisions yesterday applied by the priority deadline of October 15 (instead of regular deadline). As for the duplicate app, sorry I’m not sure

This sounds like you were waitlisted!

I did apply by the priority October 15th deadline, so I'm not sure why I don't have a decision yet ? I did also apply to the Hillman Scholars Program (BSN/PhD). So, perhaps that has something to do with my delayed notification. Did anyone else apply to Hillman Scholars?

Would anyone be interested in joining a facebook group for admitted students if one was created?

I got accepted to the BSN/MSN Family NP Program. I noticed that there is an 8 month gap between graduating from the BSN program and beginning the MSN program (we complete BSN in December and the MSN starts in August). Does anyone know if that is actually the case or if there is a way to start the MSN portion sooner?
