Hello;I just received the application and information packet in the mail today and as I am looking through the packet I come to the section of FAQ's and one of the questions asked were What are the prerequisites for the GEPN program? The answer was: We no longer require a statistics course as a prerequisite for enrollment While we encourage our GEPN applicants to take a course in anatomy and physiology it is not required. Now, I am assuming this is the new and updated application packet because on the website it says that the preq's are a bachelors degree from an accredited college, a minimum of a C or better in statistics and While we encourage our GEPN applicants to take a course in anatomy and physiology it is not required. So since its changed and statistics is not required and A&P is encouraged, but not required the only prereq that applicants need now is only a bachelors degree in any field.This all leads me to believe that Yale is trying to seek as many diverse applicants as they can by taking away certain stipulations of getting in to the program. I also believe that they are really trying to admit applicants with diverse backgrounds and an extremely passion for a career as a Nurse practitioner. They dont have a minimum GPA, no special courses are needed and they did change the score for the GRE which is 550-600 in each section and a 3.5 or higher in the writing section in order to be competitive. This change really sounds very positive. So they are looking at the overall application submitted, but it seems to me that the letters of recommendation and the personal statements are just as strongly looked at as the GPA in undergrad and GRE. I beleive what will make students competitive or give them an edge is some form of experience working in the hospital or health care.I would love to hear any and everyone's feed back on the changes of the prereq's
