Hi anaprada, are you currently in the SMU FNP program at the Oakland campus or Sacramento campus? I have been waitlisted for the Fall 2018 Oakland cycle and am making preparations to apply for the Spring cycle if the waitlist doesn't pan out for me. I've visited the Oakland campus, but cannot find very much information about the Sacramento campus. If you have any insight on the Sacramento SMU campus/know any Sacramento SMU students, I would appreciate any insight you have!

San Francisco State University ELM-A Spring 2018 Hi everyone! I've been obsessively stalking all of the other SF State ELM-A topics but I haven't seen one for Spring 2018 yet. I hope we can share information as we try to survive this process together! Some information I got from the online info session: ADMISSION STATS: Every year 65-115 applications are received, 24 are ultimately admitted COST: The ELM-A program costs a total of $65-66,000 (not subsidized by state funding, only federal loans available). The non-accelerated 3 year Entry level MSN in Fall semester is a total cost of $24,000. LENGTH: 2 years, (6 semesters) no Summer breaks. Last 2 semesters are graduate-level courses. DEADLINE: Cal State Apply: Aug. 31, NursingCAS: Sept. 17 LOR: 3, one must address health-related experience EMPHASES: emphases do not affect your admission (no quotas for any of the specialties) Adult gerontology, pediatrics, women's health, community/public health. Also Nursing Administration and Public Health Nursing. INTERVIEW: Group format interview sometime in October (not 100% on this). I've heard that it is VERY brief. GRE: Analytical Writing score of 4+ (only writing score is considered) A little myself: Semi recent grad - English major from small liberal arts college, 1.5 years of experience volunteering at a women's health clinic as a health educator, also a volunteer hospital birth doula for 1 year. I have never worked professionally in a health field other than through volunteer work, which may disadvantage me. I speak Spanish fluently and live in the Bay Area. Undergrad GPA: 3.81, Prerequisite GPA: 3.85. Still waiting to hear about GRE Analytical Writing. I am hoping to apply for a women's health specialty or Public Health. I should really decide by now! Please post about yourself and any questions or answers you might have! Hope to hear from you all ?
