I have been on the lookout for the 2020 thread but figured that I'll have to create one. I am sorry if there is one that I am not aware of.
I am a 2020 hopeful that is looking to make a career switch. I was at one of the information sessions where I gained further insights on the application process and the program. I took the GRE yesterday and was around the 50th percentile for both Q&V.
One of the changes to this years' requirements is that you don't need the GRE if you already have a masters degree or would complete one before the start of the 2020 session. I haven't taken the major prerequisites, but I will take and complete them in the summer of 2020.
I will start talking to my recommenders from next week, I have a tentative list that I composed with a view of having them tell different stories about my candidacy.
May I crave the indulgence of both current and past GEPNs and the benevolence of prospective class of 2020 to make this thread the best one yet. Your views and insights are welcome and appreciated!
So financial aid awards have not yet been awarded to GEPN students.. or some of you already have? I am a GEPN student and haven't received anything so I was just wondering if the emails are sent to MSN students or just trickle in for everyone..
Yes. I received an e-mail about it first, which has not happened before. It notified me there was an update to my application and to go to the application portal. I’m not sure why it wasn’t sent out to everyone at the same time.
Hey all! For anyone that hasn't received their financial aid packages yet, the next batch will be sent out next week. Good luck to everyone and hope to see those of you that will be attending on the 7th. Have a great weekend!
Did anyone get a Scholarship? Do we know if it's a one time scholarship, or recurring each year?
I received a scholarship. My understanding is that they evaluate your eligibility for a scholarship every year based on your FAFSA, which gets submitted every year.

Oh I thought it was reoccurring! Does anyone know what the likelihood is that Yale would reduce the amount if nothing changes in the FAFSA? I imagine that they would try and keep the amount stable...
Can someone add me to the Facebook page? I sent a request 2 days ago but haven’t gotten approved yet.
Make sure you answered all of the questions. There are dozens of people who are trying to add themselves but have not been accepted or even applied to the program.
