Ohio State University(OSU) Traditional-entry MSN Fall 2020

Updated:   Published

Hello All,

I am looking to connect with others who are applying to OSU's Traditional-Entry MSN program for Fall 2020 admission. Or, if anyone out there is currently in the program or recently graduated, I would love to hear your input on the school!

I am planning to apply to the PMHNP and have a BS in Biology and am completing an ADN in nursing currently. I am also a mental health technician on an inpatient psychiatric unit.

Advice, information, and encouragement for all current applicants is what I am hoping this thread is able to provide. Please introduce yourself and add anything you like relevant to the OSU MSN traditional-entry programs.

Good luck during this cycle everyone!

If you haven't lately, you might check your Buckeyelink account. Offers are being sent out! :-)

Really? Wow, that was quick! I wasn’t expecting any notification until late February. What program did you apply for and did you receive an email as well? I am checking the application portal and am still seeing pending.

I applied for PMHNP. I was counting on late February, as well, but I certainly won't argue with mid January!

I was surprised that there was no e-mail initially, but I went to the Buckeye Link site and they had a link to Accept/Decline. After I accepted, the office of Graduate and Professional Admissions sent an e-mail.

That is awesome! Congratulations. Hope I may be joining you. Did you choose traditional entry and online?

Anyone apply for Pediatric Primary Care NP?

Is it pretty hard to get into?

Please let me know if any of you guys have heard anything from the FNP Full-Time/Part-Time program. Thanks!

Anyone else hear back from the other specialties ?

Cbus93 - I applied for the online, full-time traditional PMHNP and am from out of state. Still waiting and portal says pending.

I applied to Peds Primary Care NP and am nervous about getting a decision. I'm hoping I get in.

I have not heard of many other applicants to that specialty on this forum. I am a little anxious about my pending decision as well, but think that is normal at this stage in the process. Did you happen to apply to any other programs? I hope you get in too and wishing you the best of luck! Let me know if your status changes at any point.

Has anyone heard anything lately? I know a few said they got their notification. Thinking may be a rolling process? Three weeks left till deadline for acceptance notifications. ??
