Fall 2011 Western University of Health Sciences MSN-E

[dche3]

Anyone applying to WesternU's MSN-E program? If so, do you know when they will start the interview process? What they look for in their applicants (gpa, extracurricular, etc)?

Current students--What were your stats like?

Any information would be helpful =)

Thanks in advance!

The only emails I have gotten have been to tell me about posts on this site....I am pretty bummed. My last name starts with an S so I am hoping they are going in alphabetical order

Just got my acceptance letter earlier this afternoon... =D

I don't think it's alphabetical or based on interview dates. Acceptance emails & letters are going to be sent out until all seats are filled (August). Good Luck All!

dlrosen, was it via mail or email? i got nothing so far ... and every1 else, i emailed the counselor and he said that there is no set date for the committee to be completely done deciding on all the applications... sigh.

cacon, is it rolling admissions? or will they actually have a wait list where they rank students then a set of people they reject? thanks :)

Congrats to those who have been accepted into the program! I received my acceptance email this morning at around 11am Pacific Time. I interviewed on Jan. 28th. I am super excited and hope that those who haven't received their acceptance emails yet will be arriving soon! Try to stay hopeful :)

thank you everyone. =) I received the decision by email and it was around 11:45 this morning. I interviewed on 2/14 in the morning and my last name starts with an "R" (obviously). Please do not be discouraged to those who are still waiting. I realize that is easier said than done, but they're not going to send all acceptances on the same day. Plus, even if they did, not everyone is going to accept. I for one, am on the fence...

In regards to choosing between SMU and Western, I would choose SMU ONLY because of location. It's in the bay and that's where my family is, as well as my boyfriend.. I unfortunately, do not have SMU as an option. I don't think I got in since I was not asked to interview. As for reputation, its a good school, but it isn't THE best ... maybe the best in the area, since there isn't very many options in the area in the first place. && I'm saying all this without resentment, cause I'd say the same even if I did get into the program. =)

I'm on the fence cause I'm having a hard time swallowing that $71 thou the first 12 months ... I realize we could probably get sponsored hospitals, but realistically, what are the chances? Hmmm... I don't know. I feel blessed to have options, so I hope I'm not coming off in the wrong way...

Sending good thoughts, good thoughts to everyone!

I'm sorry this is kinda off topic, but I was wondering if anyone remembers the type of CPR class that we need to take for Western? I know it has to be through the American Heart Association and has to the BSL one. Anything else specifically?
