Admitted for Direct Entry FNP!!! Looks like I will be relocating to Nashville!!

Obnurse85...I don't know if you read my story from earlier but I am a repeat applicant from last year so mine was submitted WAY before lol....i was told i was admitted but then there wasn't anymore space so I had to be waitlisted because i submitted ...

Obnurse85....do you live in or near Nashville? I haven't received any letters and my file is still under review even though I was suppose to be in the first round of reviews. This is extremely frustrating...

Are you FNP only or did you apply for the NMW/FNP?

I dont know why so late for us when prespecialty is getting letters..

I spoke with someone in admissions this morning around 1030 and as of that moment no letters have been sent out for Direct Entry FNP ( BSN RN) applicants. Applications were still under review. hopefully we will hear something soon

i spoke with admissions around 1030 this morning and as of that time no letters have been sent out for Direct Entry FNP ( BSN RN applicants) files were still under review with faculty. Hopefully we will hear soon!

I live in Dallas, TX and several hospitals have gone to/are going to BSN only for new grad applicants and for experienced RN positions it states BSN preferred.

Congrats...but you should probably change your name since you have not earned that credential...i believe that is a rule on this site and its technically illegal.

I am still fairly early in my career as well....I am 23 but I have been a RN for two years and I graduated with my BSN when I was 21....I wasn't a "good fit" based on my interview with the nurse midwife faculty... Essentially, I lacked enthusiasm wit...

Around the last week of February to the first week of March most people receive a decision it seems...

I submitted my application after the priority deadline and applied for the dual program NMW/FNP. NMW stated that I wasn't a "good fit" for the program but FNP admitted me. When they told me I was admitted they did not realize that space was full for ...

When I applied for combination program NMW/FNP last year I had a phone interview with faculty from both programs. From prior experience and understanding NMW and FNP both interview applicants.

Have any FNP applicants received any updates or interviews? Particularly RN BSN applicants?

yes. everyone who applied receives a financial aid packet. Atleast that has been the case in the past.

have any direct entry (already RN BSN) candidates received a phone call for an interview for FNP or any other specialty?

actually your "fit" into a particular program based on essay responses and phone interview weigh heavily as well...so it is not so GPA and GRE scores

from my experience FNP is usually one of the slower specialties perhaps because of so many applicants...hopefully something will be heard in the next couple of weeks!

i believe this thread is a mix of prespecialty and direct entry with prespecialty being the majority

good luck to everyone! I applied for Direct Entry to the FNP program. I have been a registered nurse for 2 years.

the popular specialties like FNP and NMW conduct over the phone interviews

I have resubmitted my updated application a couple of weeks ago! Good Luck everyone!

when I applied for the Fall 2012 class I submitted a CV

Well I was "admitted" to the FNP program for fall 2012 but they didn't realize they were full for both fulltime and part time classes so I was changed to wait listed since I submitted my application late I will be "reapplying" for the FNP program fu...
