  • Essay Questions

  • Please answer either Questions 1-3 OR Questions 4-6. Respond to each question individually. Combined responses should not exceed two single-spaced pages.

    1. Describe a specific personal, educational, clinical, or community experience that shaped your understanding of health inequities or barriers to care. How has that experience influenced the type of Nurse Practitioner you hope to become, and how would it contribute to CHN’s mission of providing high-quality, culturally responsive, community-based healthcare?

    2. Part of the goal of the CHN NP Fellowship is to address the healthcare disparities that face NYC. How do you foresee yourself helping to address the healthcare challenges that affect communities in NYC?

    3. Fellowship training requires continuous learning, feedback, and adaptability. Describe strengths you would bring to the CHN NP Fellowship, as well as one area of professional growth you hope to develop during the program. How do you typically respond to constructive feedback?

    4. While providing healthcare as a Nurse Practitioner is often a rewarding career, it is also a profession that entails addressing constant challenges. What do you see as the most significant issues the NP profession will face in the next 20 years, and what are some potential solutions for these problems?

    5. Describe your short-term (1-3 years) and long-term (5-10 years) professional goals. How does fellowship training fit into those goals, and what role do you hope community health, primary care, or psychiatric care will play in your future career?

    6. Describe a patient encounter, clinical experience, or life experience that challenged your assumptions or changed the way you think about patient care. What did you learn, and how has it influenced your approach to caring for patients from backgrounds different from your own?
