Hi all, wanted to start a thread and network with previous/ current students whom have attended Sonoma State University's FNP program. I'm very excited to finally get back to school after a long 9 years. Any advice or feedback from previous / curre...

Just wanted to start a separate thread for those whom have applied for UCSF's traditional MSN program for Fall 2014. I personally applied for AGNP program, crossing fingers. I initially wanted to apply last year but welcomed our 3rd child last Augu...

Hey just wondering if anyone has advice on what hospital would be better for new grads. I was excepted to White Memorial for the August program, but just got the call for Long Beach VA. So here's what I know: White Memorial; is a Versant Program an...

Wanted to give a little update. So I'm in 3rd week of the 2nd quarter of the AGNP OEH program. It's doable but a lot of work, and the quarter system is very fast. The OEH program is a double major so there was much more school work than I expected...

I am. From California but would seriously consider moving to Vermont if there is a single payer system that works. I think Vermont would be the perfect test bed for a single payer system in the States because of the population that exists. Not su...

awww, that's heart wrenching!!! Although UCI would be nice :). I went to Long Beach State and use to live in Anaheim. It's a nice area.

yikes that is confusing, hoping you got a late spot into the program!!

I got into the AGNP-OEH. I figured it was the same with AGNP but you just take a few more units and get a minor in Occupation Health.

Actually not sure if I got into the regular AGNP or AGNP-OEH. My offer letter didn't specify. I'll call SJ tomorrow to figure it out. Thanks KELSRN and ISKA.

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo............................... I got in!!!!! Woooohooooo! Best nurses week gift ever!

Great choice tinatab!! A couple of my buddies are in that program and they love it. I was excepted to the program back in 2012, but wanted to move up to the bay area to be closer to family. I got 3 kids and need all the help I can get. :)

Hi Hina, since the program starts in August, I believe you can hear back from the wait list all the way upto July.

Congrats ksnurseks in being accepted!! I'm hoping to also get into the AGNP-OEH program after being wait listed for the regular AGNP. Not to sure if there is a huge difference between the two programs other than that you take more classes and get ...

Are you referring to the Stats requirement being done within 5-6 years. I think it's actually a proven myth. If for some reason I don't end up getting in this year. I'm for sure applying next year and using their advise to improve my application.

Keep your head up Hina, did you by any chance reach out to the coordinator or directors of the program. They are surprisingly easy to talk to and very helpful.

So still impatiently waiting. Talked to a couple of the directors and I guess they will give me their decision within 9 days, but one said my application was "very strong". Any else get news?

Congrats woofy!!!

aww Angela, I wish you got better news.. Are you planning on applying next year? I've been told a few times that it helps if you speak directly with whom ever is coordinating admissions to the specialty. After receiving my "alternate" email, I tal...

So for clarification 8 where admitted to Adult Gero Primary NP, and 4 to the HIV/AIDs focus. I thought the class would be a little bigger, but I guess there is a faculty shortage.

Anyone else hear any news.

Good question, not to sure. Did you apply for the primary care Adult Gero? I guess the wait list is not bad, there might be more opening but they are limited with their faculty.

Darn, so maybe next year. According to SJ, there was 12 total admits and 8 for regular adult gero NP. Im 5th or 6th on the wait list. Good luck to everyone else!!

Ughh got my email, saying that im an alternate

Thanks for the advice, I think ill look into. Just a little far from me, I live in Gilroy, South of San Jose.

ehh, it's been my internet routine for the last month. Facebook, hotmail, yahoo, 49erswebzone, allnurses (to this thread), and status application for UCSF. Good vibes to everyone that we hear soon, and we get in!!!!
