Hello, I heard back in the first week of February, and there was no interview. Good luck!

Slightly off topic but I might attend Simmons University DEMSN-FNP and I saw on their Instagram that they're still accepting applications if anyone wants to apply and go to Boston with me LOL https://www.simmons.edu/graduate/admission/how-apply/nursing-MSN-direct-entry-program And congrats @DarlLovesNursing

My interview is for 4/25 from 5-6:30 pm! Forgot to add my stats as well: Anatomy: A Physiology: A Microbiology: A Chemistry: B+/B Total GPA: 3.28 HESI: 96.4 1.5 years healthcare experience, 400+ hours of regular community service I'm nervous for the interview tho, assuming it is still a group interview. I'm not too outgoing and don't like talking over people, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to contribute as much if it's not turn based talking.

I also received an invite with a zoom link!

@gigiclem Thank you so much! Definitely helps give us a better timeline.

@gigiclem Could you also share when you received the invite for the FNP interview, and when the interview would have taken place if they stated? Happy for you for your acceptances!

@ALcamp135 Nope, hoping that they're moving on to the FNP now that they're sending out CM decisions.

I have not either T-T

@AlmostNurse90 thank you for sharing! I did see that the NCLEX pass rate has been decreasing, I assume that is because the teaching is inadequate. Do you think this will also affect passing the NP boards as well? Good luck on the rest of your journey!

@desireformsn Good luck on your interview! Is it for the FNP or CM track? Wondering if I'm just sitting in the reject pile or if FNP has not interviewed yet ?

Hi everyone! I'm possibly attending Simmons University starting fall 2023. I saw the 2021 student post warning not to attend, and I was wondering if anyone is currently attending and can give updates on how it is now. Also if there are any updates on if the clinicals or practicals are set up. Thank you so much!

@gigiclem Congrats on your acceptances! Did you apply for the CM or FNP for the ELMSN?

No I keep picking up my phone with every notification T-T

@gpgg123 The person from March 8th said that they got into the ABSN without an interview, so I feel like we also might not get interviewed

I havent gotten any emails, but called earlier this week and they said decisions should be sent out this week, latest next week. So I guess I have to pay my deposit for the other program I got into jic

Have yall seen the posts from current ELMSN-FNP cohorts on past admission posts? They were warning against going to Samuel Merritt and the yelp posts are also recent and warn against problems. It definitely also makes me nervous that they are this bad at communicating with applicants, literally no emails or updates since applying even though in the "Thank you for applying" email they stated: "Throughout the application process, you will receive notifications and updates when they are appropriate." Kinda seems sketchy to me and really disorganized, but also close to home and the only direct to FNP program in California (that I saw and applied to)! What do you all think???

Thank you! I'm hesitant to reach out to them because I believe they said not to contact their admission office :( but good luck to y'all!

Has anyone heard anything about the ELMSN- FNP? I'm getting anxious because the deadline for my intent to enroll at another school is coming up!

Hello! I was accepted last month, wondering if anyone else is accepting admission to Simmons?
