Hello, 

I don't think there is a thread for Yale GEPN applicants for Fall 2025 start, so here it is! Let's share knowledge and cheer each other on! Also, if there is an existing thread, please let me know.

I want to submit my application soon, but I keep re-reading and editing my essays... Anyone else doing the same thing? I have been out of school for almost 10 years, and I'm getting flashbacks to high school/undergrad days!

Additionally, has anyone sent a transcript via Parchment? My transcript should have been received by Oct 21, but on NursingCAS, it says it hasn't received. 

Thanks, and I look forward to communicating with you all!

Did anyone have 2 professional and 1 academic reference?

Hi yes I did.

I did. However I graduated school 10 years ago. I had one professor, my manager (I work in healthcare) and a nurse practioner that I shadow write my recommendation letters. 

Last day for Rolling admissions, good luck everyone!

When do you all think people will hear back from admissions for the March 1 deadline? Has anyone heard back?

Hi! The admissions counselor told me to expect a decision mid-late March and that they like to send decisions out on Fridays! Hope this helps! 

Did anyone see the deadline was extended to April 1? Has anyone received decisions?

I applied on March 1st, and my application was verified by NursingCAS three days later. However... I haven't heard from admissions yet.

Haven't heard anything yet, I was originally told end of March for the March group, but that was before the extension to April 1st.  Hopefully the post March 1st group will be another consideration pool, and not combined.  Good luck everyone!

Any updates anyone?
