When is the deadline to apply for this Fall? Just curious

[Amaka]

Am sorry, I don’t know . I got accepted since last year, but I couldn’t do it due to some family issues.

[SykeRn0213]

Amaka- Do you have your BSN or MSN? Just curious where you'll be starting in the program.

Applepie- July 1st or the 31st Is the deadline (I can't remember which one ?)

Amaka- Do you remember the admission process? I submitted my application, resume, and transcripts but was never asked for letter of recommendations or to take an exam. I know at my previous school there was a lot of paperwork that needed to be done prior to the admission.

Do you remember having to submit a letter of recommendation or take an exam?

[Amaka]

No letter of recommendation, no exams. And I think is for people that have MSN

Hi

I just finished the application process, hope to be accepted soon.

July 31st is deadline for fall 2020.

Does anyone know if we can use financial aid for August 2020 start? I’ve seen some yes and some no, advisor hasn’t gotten back to me yet. I can’t pay for this out of pocket.

I will be following this thread to share info and learn from you guys as well. Glad there are others in this with me.

Hi,

I just did a informational webinar this week and the financial aid person was on the Zoom. They said in the past the post masters PMHNP program was not eligible for financial aid but now we are eligible. They instructed us to fill out the FAFSA and then they will reach out to us with a financial aid package.
