Hey everyone! I haven't seen a new thread for people applying to UT Austin's 2019 AE-MSN program, so I figured I'd start one :) I haven't had any correspondence from the school since submitting final material on October 1st. Anyone hear anything back from the school yet??

Hi Dyamond!
I sent you a personal message on this site. I am not sure if I did it correctly. I’m new to this website/blog posts ?

Congrats to those who got admitted to AE-MSN program! I am currently a junior in UW-Madison majoring in Biology and Psychology, and I just decided to apply for the pmhnp program this year! Because I am still a full-time student, I did not have extensive working experiences in the health field, which somehow causes me to worry about this aspect. However, I have been working in a clinical psych research lab and neuroscience research lab since freshman year and am currently volunteering in an adapted fitness program, hospitals, and taking a part-time job as a behavioral treatment technician at a program that treats children with autism. My academic background should be fine with a 3.9 GPA and an average GRE score (324+4). Since I saw lots of you have excellent backgrounds and grades, I am wondering should I get more internships or healthcare working experiences to be better prepared? Or should I retake my GRE because it might not be high enough? Any thoughts are highly appreciated. Thanks!

They accept only 8 people a year with hundreds of applicants so definitely get as much psychiatric related experience as you can! Without it you're likely to get deferred to LEADS which adds a 4th year to the PMHNP program. A lot of the people they accept to AE-PMHNP have experience as social workers or other roles in psychiatry.
I'll be doing LEADS to PMHNP with similar academic scores as you and a 4 year background as a health educator doing CBT and Motivational interviewing helping people to take control of their lifestyle choices.
Good luck!
