UT Austin AE-MSN 2024

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hi there, 

I commented on last year's thread because I wasn't able to make a topic, but I figured out how to make one and so I wanted to post for people applying to next year's cohort. 

Is there anyone currently in their PC-PNP program that would be willing to chat with me about the likelihood of acceptance? 

Is anyone else applying to that program? Or to the other ones? 

I also just applied to the PMHNP program. Eeeeek slim chance but worth giving it a try. Good luck y'all!

I'm applying for to the PMHNP concentration. The website says the AEMSN acceptance rate is like 13% so I don't have my hopes up LOL

Ugh same here!

I looked online, for last year it says that out of 55 students that applied to LEADS 49 were admitted so about 89% acceptance rate, pretty good chance! I'm hopeful!

Are students who aren't accepted to any of the NP tracks automatically deferred to LEADS?

I don't think it's automatic. I think they are offered the option to resubmit an application that is catered towards the LEADS program. Basically reapply to that program.

Yeah I think if they have a strong candidate they will offer them that option.

@AustinNative Do you remember when interview invites were sent out? I'm trying to get a good idea of when we should expect responses after the application deadline!

@Texasgirly777 We submitted our applications on Oct. 1, so timing might be a little different for yall. The second week of November we got an email asking for our social security number and we had 4 days to respond - that gets sent to the Board of Nursing. Towards the end of November, they offered some people who weren't going to be getting an interview the opportunity to re-apply to LeaDS. On Dec. 1 got an email saying I got an interview. The interviews were about 10-14 days later. Dec. 23 everyone got an email about getting fingerprinted. The second week of January some people that applied to the NP/CNS tracks were offered the opportunity to apply to both. Mid-February we got the decision email. This was pretty much all the communication we got the entire time, so lots of long stretches of silence!

I'm also applying for the PMHNP track. I just submitted the application and waiting to upload supporting docs. I know it's a long shot but I'm hopeful!

Does anyone know what you can do with a degree in LEADS? Like is there a large pay discrepancy in terms of being and NP and having a masters in nurisng?
