Upenn MSN

just wanted to start a thread for people applying for the upenn MSN program. I applied for one of the pediatric acute sub specialities and am definitely anxiously waiting! good luck to everyone!

Glad to hear this....do you know any particular details as to how they are conducting the program during covid times?

hey! I applied for the part-time Fall 2022 start for the PMHNP program. I know that some of the BSN-MSN students heard back yesterday, do you know when MSN applicants might hear back? The website says for part-time Fall applicants it may take until May for decisions to come out, but I'm hoping to hear back a little sooner hahaha

Is it too late to apply for the MSN program right now?

hi! OMG I'm so happy to have heard from someone else who applied! I was looking at forums from the previous two years and it seems like ranges from February to march? granted, that was for full time. hoping it's on the sooner end!

I believe the app closed in october for full time.

Do they have spots for part-time which a deadline for mid-march?

it looks like the part-time app actually still is open until march, so you could apply to that.

Do you know how many spots are left for it?

hahhahah hi!! thank you so much for making this thread, I am so confused about this process and I'm glad I'm not the only one anxiously waiting. I went to a webinar thing over the Summer and they said that decisions were rolling (3 weeks to a month and a half) which is totally incorrect, and I've seen the older threads that say February so I am really hoping that's the case!! did you apply for full or part-time?

I have no idea how many spots are available/if they fill quickly, but I believe in the webinar I went to they said they take like 10 people out of 30 or so that typically apply or some number like that. I wish admissions did a better job of replying to emails haha.

I applied for full time! and I saw on the website it says latest notification is mid-march for full-time so I'm hoping to know if I got an interview before that at least?? ah but literally so stressful!! it all seems unclear - and also it seems like previous forums have big ranges on when people heard back! I also can't tell if people from earlier years were full or part time LOL

yes I am so confused too, I hope some of those February decisions were for part-time applicants too or I'll be waiting for sooo long haha. I would've applied for full-time but the Summer start is too close to the end of my BSN program and I wouldn't have time to take the NCLEX in between, and for fall start they only offered part-time so I went with that. do you think that they are for sure doing interviews??? It seems like other years they haven't done them for some people and I am wondering whether they will or won't offer them??
