George Mason University FNP Fall 2017

[cardiac_RN]

I've applied for FNP Fall 2017 at GMU. Has anyone else applied/know when decisions may be made? Due date is 2/1. My application status is "Out for decision". It seems from previous posts that decisions weren't made until late April/early May last year but maybe that's an anomaly because some posts mentioned a delay due to staffing issues.

According to an admissions counselor I spoke to back in November when I submitted my app, decisions come out first week of Feb so just a few weeks away! :) I don't think an interview is required, but I've heard it was before from other threads, has anyone heard about this?

That would be great if they came out that soon. I saw from other threads that some DNP candidates had an optional interview. Did you apply for MSN or FNP?

This is what I got back today:

Applications completed between October 1st to November 1stcan typically expect to receive a decision by mid-January. Applications completed between November 1st to February 1st can typically expect to receive a decision by mid-March. Applications completed during other times of the year can take 6-8 weeks to receive a decision.

I applied for the Fall 2017 BSN to DNP as well. My status says complete. I hope their final decision is positive. Good luck CardianRN and please share of you get any reply.

Thanks and fingers crossed.

Hello! I also applied for Fall 2017 FNP. Anything new?

[cardiac_RN]

Nope, not yet.

No answer yet on my end I called last week and was told that we all need to interview? I didn't know that, I was told that it was optional and that not everyone required an interview... hope we hear back soon I have some other schools I'm hearing back from very soon and I'm assuming they want an answer quick.

[cardiac_RN]

When you called, did anyone say when we would be contacted for interviews or hear anything?

[pams155]

They simply said that we should be hearing back about interview dates anytime now. I'm going to call tomorrow and see if they say anything different and post here

Is this for the FNP/DNP program or FNP? I was under the impression we didn't have to interview for FNP

[cardiac_RN]

I applied for the BSN-DNP. I think that's the only one that would require an interview.
