Hawaii Pacific University

Published

Hello

I recently applied to Hawaii Pacific University for Fall 2017 and I am having a hard time finding any RECENT information or people in the same boat. Anxiously waiting for a letter or email (I have no idea which one) for a "yes" or "no"

A little bit about myself: I was a Navy Hospital Corpsman and separated two years ago to pursue nursing, and before the Navy I was a CNA. I have completed most of my pre-reqs at Hawaii Pacific and have taken scattered college over the past ten years because of moving around a lot. Hoping to meet and share experiences with others who have applied to HPU's BSN program or HPUs HM to BSN program (I applied to both), or even those who are in the program now.

Hello!

I have also applied to HPU's nursing program for the fall of 2017. I had a hard time finding recent discussions on the program as well. Most of the allnurses chats are from 2011. Calling the nursing department was useless, I asked about if my application was received and I didn't really get a straight answer. Guess we will just have to hang tight and wait anxiously for the mail lol. Glad you started this thread, hopefully more people will chime in! Good luck to you, I hope you get accepted!

Thank you, I hope you do too! I've thought about calling and asking when to expect letters but I'm also trying to stay patient, even though the wait is driving me crazy. thanks for replying, I am glad I am not the only one on here that is anxiously waiting for a letter from HPU :nailbiting:

I called admissions and was told to wait 3-4 weeks for letters, today marks week #4. Did you receive anything yet?

Just relaaaaax. The letter will come sooner or later. Persistently calling them is not going to do anything.

I've called once. Simply curious to find out if anyone has received an answer yet.

I have called a few different times. About 2 weeks ago someone in the admissions office told me that we should hear back by the end of March but I haven't heard anything. When I called last friday they told me another 4-6 weeks. I am very confused on when we should hear back cause I have heard so many different things. Guess we will just have to wait a while

Thanks for the response, good to know. It's strange that you were told another 4-6 weeks last Friday and I was told 3-4 weeks from the Feb 28th deadline less than a week ago on Tuesday. The woman at admissions put me on hold and said she was asking the nursing department. Anyway, hoping the letters come soon and I hope that you get accepted :D

Has anyone heard anything yet? I called 2 days ago and one guy in admissions told me the nursing program

has not made their decisions but I got an email yesterday from a different person in admissions and she told

me that she thinks the nursing school has.

I have not received anything or heard anything new. Fall registration is approaching too, hoping we find out soon! It's strange that there are so many different answers about admissions decisions, wondering if there was more applicants this time around or if they changed the way they review applications.
