There is a huge difference between what an NP does and what an RN does. There is also a big difference in responsibility and decision making. I would say if you want to be an NP, do the NP program, and you will find out about the whole RN thing along...

I recently graduated as an FNP from Samuel Merritt University ELMSN program. I have a slightly different perspective than SkiBumNP. In general, I found the program very unprofessional. Most of the teachers are very poor. The lectures were borin...

I decided to take the ANCC exam not really understanding the difference. Now, I have paid, so I am stuck with it. I am hoping I will pass and studying. Any words of encouragement would be appreciated. Could you give some examples of the "weird" quest...

How can I study for the theory, legal, ethical, and research areas of the ANCC FNP exam? A lot of folks have recommended going through theory and legal books from school, but I would like some more specific recommendations. Could someone give some e...

Is there anyone who's applied to the MEPN at UCSF for Summer 2007? I would love to communicate about the stresses of the application process and concerns or knowledge anyone may have. Also . . . Is there anyone out there who knows about this applic...

HI I am starting an entry-level MSN-FNP program at the end of August! I am so overjoyed! All the suggestions in this thread have been wonderful! I have been thinking about a voice recorder for recording lectures. I never used one in all the prereq...

Hi I was admitted to the SFSU Generic Masters, but I just got in at another school. I will be withdrawing my acceptance today. That should open up a spot for someone on the wait-list. GOOD LUCK!

Hi I just got the big envelope in the mail yesterday from SMC. I'M IN!!!! So that's one down off the wait-list. GOOD LUCK to everyone! Keep us posted.

I have been accepted to SFSU Generic Masters Program, CNS emphasis! I am so excited. However, I am #1 on the waitlist for Samuel Merritt College. If I get in there I will not go to SFSU, so someone can have my spot. I will let you know.

HI ALL Yesterday, I spoke to the ELMSN-FNP Admission Counselor on the phone. She assured me that they do not over admit. She said that since they have so many applicants and only 24 spots, they cannot risk overfilling the program. She also mention...

University of California--San Francisco, University of San Francisco, and San Francisco State University all have entry level masters programs. Be prepared . . . these programs are highly competitive.

BerkeleyMom- I was at the Tuesday, March 13th interview. Have you been admitted to both the ABSN and the ELMSN-FNP programs? I saw a post from you in a different forum. If so, how does that work?

The other question: I applied to UCSF's MEPN FNP and got waitlisted at #6. I have been accepted to USF Master's Entry Option Program, which starts May 22. I applied to SFSU and have heard absolutely nothing.

I applied for the ELMSN-FNP. I am #1 on the wait-list. The waiting and berkeleymom's post is driving me batty. I thought I had a great chance of getting in, but now, I'm not so sure. I haven't read any other comments on how this whole process wor...

Thanks for the morale booster!

Thanks !!!

Hi I am on the waitlist for SMC as well. The waiting is tough, to say the least. I would like to comment on Berkeleymom's post: It seems highly dubious that a school would accept 10 more students than they have room for. THIS IS WHY THERE ARE WA...

I hope its sooner than later. Which specialty did you apply for? I applied for FNP.

I was at interview day January 19th. I am going crazy with this waiting thing. They did say letters would be postmarked by March 1st at the latest. I am literally counting down the days. What makes the wait easier? Let me know when you get your l...
