CSULA ELMN Fall 2009???

Published

Hello! I was just wondering if anyone out there has applied to the CSULA ELMN program for Fall 2009? Maybe we can discuss what everyone's heard about their application, interviews, TEAS scores, etc.

:wink2:

Thanks for the update, just.fran :)

I'm trying to wait patiently, but have a feeling that I won't be getting good news:(

I still haven't heard from Kathy Hinoki, so I'm assuming that I won't be among those selected. I am going to accept the offer of admission at CSUN, get experience, then apply to MSN-NP programs. Good luck to everyone who was accepted! I wish you all the best.

I know a few NPs who graduated from CSULA's MSN-NP program and they loved it, so I hope you will have also have a positive experience in the ELMN program. They did mention that the ELMN students were always kind of stressed out because of having to work while taking classes full-time--but that could also be a positive thing. You get to apply what you're learning sooner and I believe that will be a huge benefit in the end.

congratulations those who got in!...

I just got rejection e-mail.

Prof. Hinoki was very nice. She gave me an individual message that was very discreet with encouragement. She wrote that she could put me on waiting list if I wanted (but that only 1 or 2 students decline acceptance) I have no idea to how many students she's offering this.

Good luck to others

She sent me a similar email.

Congratulations to those who were accepted!

I'm disappointed, but I'm happy that I at least have one acceptance so far and am still waiting to hear from 3 other programs. There are many paths that will lead us to our goals, and this just made deciding how I will start my path that much easier.

Best of luck to everyone!!

Hey guys!!!

I got a rejection email too. But I've been added to the waiting list. I'm surprised that even happened considering I didn't even interview. I wonder if everyone who got rejected is added to the waiting list.

MSNapplicant, did she ask you if you wanted to be on the waiting list or did she say that you were already it (automatically) and to confirm that you want to stay on it by emailing her back?

yeah its a generic email. i got the same email... no interview either.

Yeath, they were generic, but I thought they were more discreet than others.

She wrote that I should email her by April 8th if I wanted to be included on the waiting list. She mentioned that she interviewed the top fifth of the applicant pool.

Yeah, they were generic. Just look at the subject line, "FW:"

We probably all got the same email. But at least it was kind and tried to soften the blow. It could have just as easily been cold and matter of fact.
