Yale GEPN 2018

Published

Hey everyone! Now that applications have been out for a while, has anyone started the process of applying for the Yale GEPN program? I hope that your applications are going well if you have! Also, if there are any current GEPN students that happen across this thread, if you have time, feel free to share your experiences in the program and any tips you may have :) Thanks!

Hi~ I am wondering what advice you have for the interviews and if it's worthwhile to travel there for the interview? I live in CA so it will be quite the trek..

Hi! I am in San Diego and got an interview for AGACNP Jan 25. I think I'm going to fly out. I've never been on the east coast so I want to see what I'll be in for and really want to see the campus, but that's just me.

Hey! I have a couple of questions: I am planning (at this point) on wearing business professional attire to the interview - any reason i should wear something different? Also, how are the interviews?

Yay! Pediatrics! :)

How do you like the program overall? Like is it academically manageable? Are the classes interesting/are the professors good? And just like in general, why did you pick pediatrics and what about are some of the things you like about it? I flip back and forth on PNP and FNP because I'm pretty sure I just want to work with kids but putting yourself in a box like that can be kind of scary sometimes. Thanks!!

I also live in California! I'm going to do everything I can to interview on person just because I personally don't think I'd do well over the phone. I get really anxious when I talk on the phone with people and think that an in person interview would be worth the time/cost for me personally. From previous threads though it doesn't sound like interviewing over the phone inherently puts you at a disadvantage, so do what's best for you! :)

No interview for me (hopefully this isn't a sign of many future rejection letters to come).

Congrats to all who did get an interview!! You'll do great!!

I received an interview for FNP on 1/26! Really, for anyone who didn't get good news, this genuinely does not define you or your potential as a nurse practitioner. I got waitlisted at Emory and rejected at USM, and I got an interview here! You are totally allowed to be disappointed, but don't let this experience define you as a person, because it doesn't. I know that if nursing is your passion, something will work out, I truly believe that. Feel free to hit me up over private message if you need a pick-me-up. Sending you all love and hope.

Wow, it looks like I am interviewing very early. I've been invited as well but for Jan 25th, I have another interview the next day as well so I have to do it by phone. There is no other way to make it work for me. Congratulations to everyone and good luck!

Same here for FNP!

So incredibly happy, humbled, and grateful to have received an interview for midwifery on 1/25! Congrats to those who also received interviews, and to those who didn't: you are all incredible people who will go on to become incredible NPs. I'm sending you lots of good vibes, love, and hope for future interviews and acceptances.
