1. SFSU Generic MSN for Fall 2010

   It is variable. I say that because there were some who had stellar grades, pre-reqs and undergrad cumulative, who did not get in. By stellar I mean 3.8 and above average baccaleureate, 4.0 pre-reqs. They will look at your experience in healthcare, th...

   Booger, it is fine if your results are submitted post the application deadline. Last year the writing requirement was not used as criteria for admission, and less things have changed i dont think the committee will be conisdering that at all. There a...

   I only know of 4 who got pulled from the Acute Care waiting list. Not each of them accepted, or if they did, they will recind it in favor of another school. Me, I took my spot. So besides me and Sugar, there have been 2 others called, for a tally of...

   VanHalenFan replied to newbiepnp's topic in California

   You could always take the GET as a practice test. After some thought, I am just going to take the GRE since I know they will accept that. It makes sense, since they no longer post the GET as being an option on thier website. Really, a handwritten tes...

   VanHalenFan replied to newbiepnp's topic in California

   Gosh, I don't know what to think. I called the department, and they said they are no longer accepting the GET and that the email I recieved was correct. How confusing. Maybe I will just take both, because I don't know anymore. Perhaps you are right,...

    VanHalenFan replied to newbiepnp's topic in California

    Yeah, every major in the GMSN program has to take the GRE (analytical writing). (I am editing this now, just found out we CAN'T TAKE THE GET - GET IS OUTDATED). It's just one exam, but it is still a nerve wracking thing. To prepare, even though supp...

    VanHalenFan replied to newbiepnp's topic in California

    I didn't hear anything so I contacted the department just to verify they got my response form, and they confirmed they did, and they said it will take until August for most of the Spring admits to get a status change from "dept rev" to "admitted." Th...

    I don't think it costs anything to take the GET, I could be wrong, but usually schools don't make you pay for taking thier own placement/assessment tests. Those are apart of the fees incurred when tuition is considered.

    VanHalenFan replied to newbiepnp's topic in California

    CelieSF, I am a paranoid freak so I won't divulge my # on the waiting list, since that could compromise my annonymity. Suffice to say, it was pretty high. LN, they only look at the analytical writing portion of the GRE, they won't consider the verbal...

    VanHalenFan replied to newbiepnp's topic in California

    Since posting earlier, I recieved a correction email from the department that they are indeed splitting Acute Care up, and some will start in the fall, & some in the spring - however the correction is that I am still slated for spring. Okay, when...

    Wow, Sunshine! Electing no emphasis was risky! The FNP program is not automatically added, it's not an MSN FNP adjunct program. You will still have to apply to the FNP certification after you have 500 hours of clinical and/or work experience as an MS...
