It's probably too soon to start this thread- anyone else out there?

Does anyone know whether candidates were interviewed for merit scholarships?

[wellthen]

there was an email sent not too long ago saying, among other things, notification of merit scholarships will be sent along with admissions decisions. So no interview for merit scholarships

[wellthen]

I totally agree MarshaRabbit. I fell in love with the environment of the school and everyone there (even when I got lost on my way to my interviewers office a kind lady named Rachel helped me find my way, wished me luck and hoped to see me again, and complimented me on my hair!). I'm from NYC and I've been here my whole life (exact my one year stint at PSU) so I'm use to the cold and I even got into Columbia but I'm really looking for a change of scenery making Yale my last hope for change! :)

We will find out about our destiny on February 28, I just got an email from Melissa. Good luck everyone!:-)

So is this week dragging by for anyone else?? I am stethoscope/supply shopping to distract myself. There are some really good threads on here from RN/NP students about what you actually NEED vs. what you'll never use.

Shopping --->

Agreed......but at least there's only one more day of torture left!!!

[MarshaRabbit]

Lol Droux YES! Thankfully I haven't started the fitful, I'm-dreaming-my-patients-live-in-my-house nerve sleeping yet. That, is probably for tonight!

I distracted myself with yoga a lot... I figure that will help prepare for either outcome.. There was some shopping in there too

Good luck again everyone! It's like being 6 and waiting for Christmas :)

I've been stalking past threads for Yale GEPN, and for the past two years, decisions have come out the afternoon before the original deadline, which means that there's a decent chance that decisions might come out at the end of today. Not to add to anyone's anxiety levels, and of course I could be wrong, but it's exciting nonetheless. :) Good luck, everyone!

So it's 5:15 East Coast time and we haven't heard anything... which means MP is true to her word. She said Feb 28th, and she meant Feb. 28th, not a day sooner!

God, I am going to be so useless at work tomorrow with the obsessive email-refreshing.

And it's not like being 6 and waiting for Christmas. It's like being 6 and waiting for Christmas with a significant possibility of coal in your stocking. At least my coal is BC with a merit scholarship, I can live with that.

[droux]

That's a helluva lump of coal @jmpsych! Congrats. May that impressive lump of coal cradle you in it's comforting soot as you wait for the Yale decision.

So are they sending out an email? (sorry I'm sure it's already been said) Or is it just a status update on the application website? Because my email at least has a sound alert :)
