Published

Hi! I'm currently applying to Azusa Pacific University's traditional MSN with FNP specialty for Spring 2021. I wanted to see if there are any applicants out there so we can chat or APU NP grads who went through the experience to maybe help out with some insight. Any responses would be much appreciated!!

Congrats on the interview! Hope it went well! Keep us posted of any news!

Thank you! I got a call back today from my program rep and she stated that they will be making decisions within the next week or so. Anyone have any updates on their application/interview?

Thanks. I'm so nervous! Hopefully everyone hears back from them soon. I honestly probably applied back in early May so it took them a long time. I had to follow up multiple times to get updates but it seems COVID has affected their process tremendously.

I am sure you did great! ?

Just received my acceptance call and email this afternoon! I'm hoping you all hear from them soon. This has seriously been an arduous journey for all of us.

Congrats! ? I still haven’t heard back for an interview or anything. May I ask how the interview went and what we can expect?

Congrats on the acceptance! I'm feeling a little discouraged as I haven't heard back regarding an interview or anything.

Thank you! So it was via ZOOM scheduled for 30min but mine lasted for an hour since we just chatted it up! I had one of the professors of the program interview me with basic questions like, "why do you want to become an NP; what makes an NP different than an MD; why APU?" so preparing your answers would definitely help.

The professor told me right away whether or not I'd be a good candidate. She also told me that if I didn't get in with this cohort that it's not because I wasn't good enough for their program, but that mainly it's due to the fact that they had sooooo many candidates applying for this period and they are limited to their decision. It was a very comfortable interview - professional yet personable which I appreciated. I can tell the faculty really care about their students.

Has anyone spoken to their rep about their application/interview? I'm curious to know why they haven't updated you guys, according to what a handful of you are saying.

I tried reaching out to my program rep only to find out he’s on paternity leave ? 

so if someone else reaches out to their rep, let me know their response!

We must have the same rep! I emailed one of the contacts from his out of office email and they responded that decisions have been delayed because of COVID and we should know by the end of November at the latest.
