My roomate and I are going to be applying to U of H manoa school of nursing. We know we have a bit of a head start until we have to actually apply but we have a couple of questions for anyone that have been through the application process for Univers...

@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...

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 g...

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...

@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...

@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 specifi...

@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

@mrobinson6900 How long did it take nursingCAS to verify your grades after they recieved your transcripts? All of my things are turned in and that's the only thing left for my application to be submitted to the admissions review board. Thanks!

@atkpop You are making me sweat here. I am not savy at all with video editing softwares. I literally fell asleep at 6am this morning exausted after finishing that video. Your career sounds to fit with APHN thought even if it is different. I started o...

I'm not sure if anyone will answer me because II know this is last year's forum but did you guys have to do a Youtube video as well or is that new for this year? I am just wondering if the Youtube video is replacing the interview or if we will have b...

Thanks samdaman for tell us about that program. I think the only thing that keeps me from applying to some of those programs are that you have to take the GRE and U of H app is expensive enough ($165?!). I don't think I can spend much more on these a...

Update: I have decided to apply for the dual FNP and APHN program :)

Hi! I have not started the application for the 2013 MEPN program yet but I plan on it soon! I will be graduating this Spring with a BS in Community/Public Health and a minor in Health Science. U of H MEPN program is the only program I am applying to ...

i got the nln thing worked out, i am taking it may 24th! it took countless of phone calls and even an email to the dean of nursing to get nln to ok me getting proctored at a community college. thanks heystella i'm glad to see someone who got in and d...

cha12m are you planning on applying for Spring 2013 for UHM?

Don't give up! Maybe see if there's another major that you are interested in. Start taking classes for that major while you retake your nursing classes and applying to nursing schools. I am starting my Community/ Public Health this summer and fall wh...
