UPenn MSN NP 2021

Published

I wanted to start a thread for all those applying to UPenn for their Master's for Fall 2021. Best of luck to everyone!  

It seems they are going out this week. My app got updated.

Specializes in NICU.

Is anyone doing to the Neonatal NP Program? It's such a small program that we got our acceptances in November just wondering if there's any other NNP students out there...

Specializes in CVICU.

Hi everyone! I applied to the AGAC NP Program. I'm hoping we'll hear back by tomorrow or latest next week. The anticipation is killing me. Good luck to everyone who applied! 

Do most people live in philly while completing these programs at Penn?  Logistically is it a nightmare to be about 30/40 minutes outside of the city (in terms of parking at campus, clinical in the city, etc.)?

I currently live in jersey and going to penn. Because of virtual learning, I can do that. But once we have in person classes, I will be commuting.

Has it been announced when classes/labs will resume in person?  I am trying to determine when and where to move to be closer to philly (I currently live about two hours away). 

I interviewed for Peds Acute care and it sounds like we won't be hearing anything until at least mid-March. My application has said "materials received" the whole time, so maybe they don't change that. 

Specializes in Pediatric Hem/Onc & Ped Palliative Care.

Did you apply for a specific peds acute care concentration?

I tried to ask them during the interview and they weren't able to tell me definitive plans; things change so quickly in light of COVID. They told me all lectures are online with sim labs and clinicals in person, but they've been actively vaccinating all students now. It is kind of frustrating because I will have to move from far as well, so it'd be nice to know. I'll reach out to one of the advisors and keep you in the loop though!

Specializes in Oncology.
