Hi, just came across their page today. It looks like this is a brand new program. Better chances of acceptance haha?

The director said it will be very competitive still. But also, did anyone else not see a place a to add recommendations or a personal statement? I just see the transcripts 

[Spellayos, BSN]

On my app it shows a spot where reference requests would show up but not a way to add them, I'll have to check again later when I can open it on my laptop. I also don't see anything about the personal statement, does anyone know what the prompt is for it?

Hey there, you need to submit first and then it will give you supplemental things to add and includes the prompt! Does anyone remember if they are doing a bit of a rolling admission? I know they want to have identified the cohort by October (at least from the open house it said so)

I believe it is rolling but not sure when they plan to begin interviewing - my guess is sometime in the early fall!

Okay, thank you!

Is there an application deadline?

[CDD14]

Has anyone heard about the program being full? Unable to move forward with application online.

No, but there was no deadline posted on the website. Does it now let you start it or submit it?

[CDD14]

It doesn't let you submit anything— it says app deadline has passed.

That's strange! They still have open houses scheduled for next month so I feel as though that is not correct, is there an office you can call? Or email admissions?
