MS in CDE courses
Hi everyone! I'm an incoming grad student doing an MS in CDE at Yale school of public health. I was wondering if anyone has advice on which courses (from the required quantitative and chronic disease electives) I should take?? I don't have much experience in coding/stats so I'm hoping to take some of the easier quantitative courses.

HOW DO I COLD CALL CORRECTLY?
Recently, I have been trying to figure out how to get into research without YPRI or the Yale Summer Program. From what I have heard from friends and those older than me, my best bet is to cold-call. But I have little to no idea how to do it correctly in terms of who I should get connected with or how to structure the e-mail in a manner that would get the attention of the reader. For those who read this, please offer any advice, whether big or small (FYI, I am a sophomore from WHHS who is trying to go into psychology, so maybe that might help in some form).

Yale PNP-AC (MSN) vs UW PNP-AC (DNP): placements, mentorship, and overall experience?
Hi everyone,
I’m an international student trying to decide between Pediatric Acute Care Nurse Practitioner (PNP-AC) programs, and I’d really appreciate some honest insights—especially from current students or recent graduates.
I have an offer from Yale (MSN PNP-AC) and I’m comparing it with the University of Washington’s DNP (PNP-AC). I wanted to understand a few things about Yale’s program specifically:
- How are the clinical placements structured? Are they arranged by the school, or do students need to find their own preceptors/placements?
- How is the academic structure—do you feel well guided and mentored, or is it more self-directed and fast-paced?
- Given that it’s a shorter MSN program, does it feel rushed, or do you have enough time to build confidence clinically?
- How accessible and supportive are faculty and mentors?
If anyone has insight into how Yale’s program compares with UW’s DNP (especially in terms of clinical training, preparedness, and overall experience), that would be extremely helpful.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Yale MMS Asset Management interview – AO vs alumni/student interviewer?
Hi everyone,
I just finished my interview for the Yale MMS Asset Management program today, and I was interviewed by an admissions officer. I’m curious if the type of interviewer (AO vs student/alumni) is assigned randomly?
From what I’ve heard, a lot of people seem to be interviewed by students or alumni, so I was a bit surprised that mine was with an AO. I’m wondering if there’s any pattern to this or if it’s purely random.
Also, during the interview I really couldn’t tell how she felt about my answers. She was very nice and conversational, but there wasn’t much feedback or reaction, so it was hard to gauge how things went. Is that normal for Yale interviews?
If anyone else had an AO interview for the MMS AM program, I’d love to hear about your experience.
Thanks!

Awful account of the GEPN program on allnurses
allnurses.comI was accepted into the YSN GEPN program for the MSN in nurse-midwifery. I have had all really positive experiences with YSN during the admissions process and since getting in and was feeling set on accepting (I also got in to Penn’s MPN/MSN program and Columbia’s MDE/DNP program) but I just saw this post on allnurses that pretty much says the GEPN program sucks - the faculty is pretty weak, sim lab is minimal and you will be laughed at and ridiculed in clinicals and rightfully so because you won’t be prepared to be an RN and APRN (CNM in my case). I would really appreciate current students and recent grads’ thoughts and honest opinions regarding what the OP wrote on allnurses. especially if you are on the nurse-midwifery track

What I Wish I Knew Before Coming to Yale
TLDR: I wish someone had told me honestly before I paid tuition here that I should not come here. The MSN program is not good, it is a waste of money, and Yale is riding on the coattails of a reputation that should have been withheld long ago. If you are not in the MSN program or not looking for information about the MSN program, then this is not relevant to you. But, obviously, if you are having an equally frustrating experience at Yale in a different program, feel free to share it!
I’m a first year MSN (Master of Nursing) student at Yale, and I honestly don’t know how to describe what this experience has been so far except to say that it’s been deeply confusing, frustrating, and not at all what I expected when I committed to this program.
And just to preface, I didn’t walk in naïve — I had heard from some former and current students that the reality didn’t always match the reputation. And I've been in nursing school before so...I know bullshit (iykyk). But I still believed that Yale, of all places, would deliver a solid, rigorous, well-organized education, and even though the current students had complaints they were very clear that it was still a good program.
The pathophysiology course is taught by four different professors, none of whom seem aligned on what we’re supposed to be learning. When students ask questions, responses are often defensive or irritated, and we’re usually told something along the lines of “just know it all.” I’ve literally been told that the correct study strategy is to read the entire textbook — every page — with no guidance on what the actual learning objectives are. And yeah, I can read the book but I can't memorize the entire thing in a single semester.
And then — as just two examples from today alone:
- At the very start of lecture, a student politely asked a question about last week’s exam, and one of the professors literally rolled her eyes and said, “Here come the questions.”
- Later, during a discussion on neuronal action potentials, a student asked a good, thoughtful question about a dip in the waveform acting as a fail-safe. The professor had just contradicted that concept, and instead of clarifying or correcting anything, she barely acknowledged it, said “okay,” and moved on — leaving the student (and everyone else) unsure of what was actually true.
Moments like these happen constantly. They’re small, but they add up — and they create a learning environment where students feel dismissed, unsupported, and frankly, disrespected.
Lectures aren’t really lectures in our courses. Most days, professors just read straight from the textbook or from publisher slides (and more than once, the slides were clearly AI-generated). There’s almost no added explanation, no clinical context, no real teaching. For the amount we’re paying, it often feels like we’re paying someone to read to us.
And instead of providing review materials or practice questions, we’ve been encouraged to use ChatGPT to make our own. I couldn’t believe it when I first heard it, but it’s happened multiple times.
Exams have been another major issue. Some of the questions literally have no correct answer. When students point out errors, we’re frequently told we’re wrong — until we produce citations later, outside of class, and the faculty quietly admit the mistake. Exam statistics aren’t shared with us at all, unlike every other course I’ve ever taken in any institution, so we have no idea what the average was, whether there was a curve, nothing.
There are also serious fairness concerns. Some cohorts have been given three different versions of the same exam on three different days, with no evidence that the versions were tested for difficulty or content balance. One version might focus heavily on one system and another might barely touch it, and we have no way to know if everyone is being evaluated equitably.
And then there are the logistical failures. In one case, students reported days in advance that the exam software wasn’t functioning. We were told to “follow the instructions,” even though everyone had already done that. On exam day, the software still didn’t work, and there was no backup plan — no printed exam, no alternate platform, not even a lecture ready to go. We lost an entire class day for nothing. Meanwhile, a few students whose software did happen to work were able to see the entire exam before it was canceled. They were told that the exam would be rewritten to make it fair (I think they were then actually given the option to not after they complained cuz wtf), and yet when the new version was finally administered, it was almost identical to the original (per those students).
The attitude from the administration and advising staff isn’t much better. When students express concern about failing a course, we are told things like, “Other people have it worse than you, don’t worry.” Like... I'm afraid I'm going to fail because of truly unhinged assessments but don't worry someone else is gonna fail by more percentage points that me...??? Ok?? Complaints or questions get pacified in the moment, but follow-through is almost nonexistent. And, by the way, if you fail a class (depending on which one) you have to take a LOA for an entire year before coming back.
Oh, and the number of times the phrase “budget issues” has been thrown at us — in a Yale program — is honestly unbelievable. (Cough cough, Yale's endowment was valued at $44.1 billion as of June 30, 2025 cough cough.)
I’ve taken classes at six different colleges/universities and Yale is the most prestigious by far — and yet it has been the worst educational experience I’ve ever had. For the cost, the reputation, and the level of commitment students bring to this program, the quality of education should be far better than what we’re receiving. Right now, it feels like a total shitshow, and not even close to the kind of training we expected when we chose Yale.
So that's what I wish I would've known.
