USM Maine Options MSN 2018

[mcluvin]

Hello,

Has anyone out there applied to this program for May 2018 start or already in the program currently? If so, does anyone have any information about when they send out acceptance/rejection letters? If you currently study in this program, how is it going so far? What locations have you done clinical at (MMC, Sweetser, etc)? I am excited for this program and hope to get accepted, I just have not found many people who are applying or are already in the program. Thanks for your insights!

Following for any answers! I also applied! I wonder when we will hear back!

It seems in the past, mid-December is the magic response time. But, admissions does what it does so it could be any time really. USM is my alma mater and I am finishing pre-reqs with them right now...even with sniffing around campus, I have not been able to find out much about how the Option admissions committee functions. I guess it's just wait and see!

I was told that decisions are going to be mailed out at the beginning of next week, so we should be hearing back soon!

I've heard lots of really great things about USM's program and that Portland is an incredible city, so I'll definitely be checking the mail hourly starting tomorrow.

Good luck to everyone else who's applying!

So it is not an email decision? that stinks

Do you know if the MSN and ABSN letters go out at the same time? Good luck everyone!
