@samdaman I know for residency you have to live there and have a job for 1 year without being a student. I am in the same boat if I get accepted because I just used up all of my VA tuition waiver for my B.S.

Yep I just know that if you get a letter before an acceptence email then you got rejected and that they are still working on reviewing apps. I have been checking my emails a rediculous amount of time today...

@samdaman Do you mind if I ask you what your GPA was?

Congratulations! I'm sure everything will work out for you or if you explain to Shannon that you need more maybe they will give it to you. Hopefully they haven't sent out ALL of those emails yet....

@Samdaman did it just got sent out tonight? and when does it say you have to get back to them by? I am so confused because Shannon said that they aren't sending emails, just letters.

@ Samdaman looks like you may be safe because we will not know for another 2- 3 weeks if we get accepted

@kangarhue The video was probably the most time consuming part for me. It took forever to edit! but hopefully I did a good job and it stands out. @samdaman If they favor overseas experience then you and mrobinson has it in the bag! If I don't get in this year then I'll be doing peace corps before I apply again. Atleast I know that getting into the peace corps will help strengthen my applicaition! -Lalida

I am in Washington State. It would probably take atleast a week for any kind of mail to get here...

@Kangarhue Thanks for the news! Keep us updated if you hear anything else :)

@samndaman I know that for my roommate and I the GPA calculation that nursingCAS gave us after verifying our application was lower than our actual grades on our school transcript.

Am I the only one excited that the due date is coming up?! I am just dying to find out if I got accepted or not and my application was done weeks ago but still no words @samdaman Did you completed your application? also did NursingCAS pulled your grades down as well when they verified your stuff? -Lalida

No words yet either My video was also viewed last week. It's making me so anxious! I feel like eventhough they say they are not comparing our applications to others, they must be if it's taking this long...But on a possitive note I have my interview for the peace corps this Monday :) It is my plan B for next year. It's a 60min - 90 min interview...that sounds so intense! Honestly either way I'm really excited for next year! Although I do hope everyone gets into the MEPN program. Keep thinking possitive Michelle! It's getting close to the deadline so we must find out soon! -Lalida

@Samdaman you're reading it wrong. That is talking about while you are in the program. The reason it says may be out of state for Advanced Public Health Nursing is because it's an online based program so you can do the program while out of state. For FNP and PNP you must be in the state because you have to do the classes in Hawaii on campus. Basically you can be an out of state student to get accepted, you just have to move to Hawaii while you are doing the program. Hope that helps :)

@Samdaman Is what true? From what I know they do a good job at accepting an equal amount of in and out of state students but they do want students who are planning on staying in Hawaii and working there since a lot of the things you learn are specific to that region.

@mrobinson69600 Thank you for the quick response! I have been so paranoid about that. Good luck to you and I hope you get in as well :) If you hear anything else feel free to pm me or post it on here. I will really appreciate it! -Lalida
