Ohio State Traditional Masters

Published

Hey everyone! I recently applied to OSU's FNP program. Not the graduate entry, the traditional one for those who already have a BSN. The deadline was January 15th, so obviously it will be awhile before they make decisions. I was just wondering if anyone had any insight into how competitive the FNP program was for traditional entry. I applied for on-campus as my first choice and online as my second choice (that's new for this year, you can choose to specialties or formats to be considered). Again, I know it's extremely early but really appreciate any info!

Thanks!

I applied for the FNP or MHNP. I am getting anxious. My email stated we would have our answer by the end of May. Praying for the both of us. I am also researching Akron and south university. I would like to get both FNP and the mental health.

I also applied to OSU's MSN program (for PMHNP). Unfortunately, I do not know how competitive the programs are individually, but for the online graduate nursing programs, as a whole, the acceptance rate is 45%. They do interviews, so I'm sure we'll hear something from them soon if final decisions are in May. Good luck! :)

I applied, no internet interview received. :(

Anyone hear anything yet?

Seems like last year around this time, applicants already found out their results. The waiting is killing me~~~~

I also applied to OSU's FNP traditional Master's entry program. I chose distance learning option only. My interview was March 16th. Haven't heard anything yet. I read some blogs and saw that in 2015 the first set of acceptances rolled out around April 19th which has me very nervous! I have a competitive GPA and plenty of experience. However, I didn't take the GRE. Hoping that didn't hurt me too much.

Same here. Many of the people that I know from work, found out in May of last year. Toward the end of May.
