Anyone else apply and also anxiously waiting???

Congrats Sephywiggin!! What program did you get accepted into??!!! We will be classmates so that's exciting! For now, at least, we can feel a lot lighter b/c the weight is finally off our shoulders and be able to enjoy the holidays coming up.

Good luck everyone in the application process! I will be starting the ELMSN program in Sacramento this January, so I thought I'd try to make this process a little easier since I know how stressful and confusing all of it can be..I believe that they u...

Congrats HappyAugust & CJCaputo!!! :) We'll be classmates for the first part of the program (before we merge off to our specific Masters Study program)!!!...I know it's such a weight off of ur shoulder.. I just had my "Intent to Register" payment...

Hey HappyAugust and other forum lurkers, Based on my interview that I had on the 8th, the faculty member that interviewed me directly told me that those who get early admittance will hear within the week of their interview. The rest of the decisions ...

Thanks for the heads up. I got in :)!! I was so excited and relieved the wait was over. I received a call the day after my interview... Did you apply to SM??

KDBworkingmom, I'm sorry to hear that you didn't get in.... Do you plan on reapplying? If so, this year could be spent making your application that much stronger! Best wishes for you... I just had an interview yesterday (Sept. 8th). Now, I'm left in ...

Yay congrats!!! Good luck :) Did you just hear this week?

No nothing yet!! I hate the waiting..I believe CM interview dates are not set yet (based on my convo with the admissions counselor). I'm trying not to think about it too much b/c I'm just driving myself up the wall. Have you?? I know a former class...

I was wondering if there is anyone that is also planning to apply to Samuel Merritt this July for any of the entry level programs (I'm planning to apply to the case management specialty)..it would be great to hear about others' backgrounds and experi...

I hope you get a call soon too!!!! I hope we all doooo....

In another thread that I started, an ELMSN-NP applicant informed us that they recieved an invite for interviews last week for August 7th. I know that the different tracks have different sets of interviews. After hearing this information, I emailed th...

Best of luck to you Tofulover! Yes, the CM applicants have different sets of interviews. The staff at SM informed me that CM students will most likely be interviewed at the end of August through September. The faculty has not yet set a date for inter...

No word on my end!! I'll definitely keep everyone posted if I get word about interviews. Please do the same so that we can all keep each other from going insane. I've been so tempted to call the admissions counselor to ask when they anticipate interv...

Hi KdbWorkingmom, I know SM looks at individuals of all backgrounds and knowledge. I know a former classmate who was accepted into the ELMSN-NP program with no prior patient contact at all. I know that interviews at the Sacramento Regional campus las...

Yay!! Someone finally responded to the thread. I won't feel as alone anymore as I wait with future potential classmates (if we get accepted). Lets update each other on here when we get calls for interviews, acceptance, etc. I applied to the case mana...

I don't think your previous master's degree will affect the likeliness or unlikeliness that a program will accept you or not for an undergraduate post bac program. Not for the schools that I've applied to at least. I know several people who have mast...

Hi WayneStateKatie, Ur welcome! I love these forums too! I've learned so much about so many things concerning nursing. I'm actually from CA and all the schools I've applied to are within my state. In CA, there are soooo many direct-entry masters prog...

Actually, there are many programs throughout the US that enables individuals with previous Bachelors/Masters degree in other fields to apply to direct entry Masters programs in nursing. I actually just finished applying to various Accelerated Masters...

I just wanted to see if anyone else was planning on applying to the ELMSN programs at Sacramento for the upcoming deadline (July 08).... It would be great to share with each other our experiences, our anxieties, and everything that comes with applyin...

Hi Pika84, I have lots in common with you! Thanks for the positive regards btw. I graduated from UCLA as an undergrad in health science and cultural anthropology. I, like you, initially wanted to go into medicine (pre-med til my junior year). However...

Hi Pika84, Although I'm applying to the the Sacramento campus, it's great to hear from someone else who is in the same point in this process. I'm so anxious right now..I've been waiting for months for the deadline of apps to come and now that it's so...

MsOptimistic, Good luck! You're definitely not alone in the waiting game. I'm getting ready to turn in my app to my number one choice so I will be joining you in the waiting experience. It sounds like you're on your way to achieving your passions, go...

I am in the same similar situation. The reading comprehension really got me!! I have a 3.8 gpa overall and 4.0 gpa for my pre-reqs also, but I only managed a 88% composite score on the NETs... I'm taking the test again next week but I totally agree w...

Hi Sparklygirl, Good luck with beginning a great journey!! I wish I was in the same position as you. I'm getting ready to turn my application into Samuel Merritt in Sacramento. Then, I'll be playing the waiting game for a couple of months. I hope yo...
