@stellula - Yes, I hope you get your refund back if you don't plan on going to USF OC campus. I was thinking the same thing about them getting qualified teachers which worries me a bit now. Very disappointed! @kuriin - Any and all information will be greatly appreicated! @myfiles2000 - Yes, in my previous post i had clearly stated that I WISH there was a third option to stay in SF but there isn't. It was wishful thinking As I was reading your post "so for those waitlisted in SF for Summer, you can reapply for Spring again, which puts you at the same place you were before the SoCal cohort, but you must be reviewed with that cohort of applicants for admission, it seems most people who applied for OC really wanted to stay in SF but were not able to secure a spot there, but again you can re-apply is that is your preferred location." I'm a bit confused to what your trying to say? I was waitlisted for summer SF but got accepted to Fall OC and I really wanted to stay in the city. I spoke to someone at USF and she said that if i withdraw myself from Fall OC, I would have to start the process all over as if I was never admitted and basically pretend I was rejected. But what you just said unless i'm mistaken is that i can reapply for spring which puts me at the same spot before SoCal cohort meaning I will be waitlisted again? Not sure if that was what you meant. Maybe i'm reading to literal. After reading it 3 times...when you wrote "you must be reviewed with that cohort of applicants for admission" I'm assuming this is the start all over. My application will just be thrown in the pool of the new applicants? Sorry for the repetitiveness. I'm a bit disappointed with this whole postponing and delay with board of nursing.

- @stellula: So here is the update with OC cohort. I don't know why they are still accepting students or is asking students to turn in application when they literally pulled the plug on it. FALL 2014 cohort is suppose to start August 19th but they Pulled the plug meaning it is no longer open for anyone. I was accepted to that cohort and have finished everything that was asked including getting all the funds and getting ready to move but they had an issue with professor for that cohort. On another note, The SoCal campus is not accredited as they are still currently trying to get it approved. Why did I say six months? because like I said, They pulled the plug on Fall 2014 so that is no longer a valid semester. They will reopen for Spring semester which is starting January 2015. Fall suppose to begin August 19th Spring is January and Summer is May I believe. So for anyone reading this thread and is intended to apply for Fall 2014 cohort, its not going to happen which is more upsetting to me the fact that they are not releasing the information to potential students. The amount of money you throw in for application fee, background check and getting all your health requirements done seems very messed up because I know they will send a letter back to say you been rejected or even wait listed but in the end result...there is No Fall 2014 semester even if it says accepted. They will highly likely just tell you last minute. Once again, I was accepted to Fall 2014 and they called me to let me know that the fall cohort has been postpone to Spring 2015 due to an issue with finding clinical instructor. If you have any other questions feel free to ask me.

To all those students who were ACCEPTED to OC1, Please go here asap University of San Francisco Fall 2014 OC MSN CNL for non-nurses I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Everyone, I figured I start a new thread for OC Fall 2014 students. As you all most likely heard from USF recruiter, USF has decided to screw all of us by taking half a year away. I couldn't believe it when I heard it. I didn't know what to think or what to say, all I did was cry especially with all the planning, getting things checked off the to-do list and they ended up pulling the plug. So here, I would like to hear back from all my classmates and hopefully we can all get together as a team and complain. I'm not a 100% where all of you are coming from but If I'm not mistaken, some of you like me have already started to look for a place to stay and may even paid thousands of dollars for deposit, gas, travel time and so forth. I was going to move from San Francisco and If there are any of you that would like to stay here in the city or go to the main campus, please speak up with me. I will be complaining and hopefully we all can be moved to SF main campus for spring rather then SoCal. If all of us speak up, the possibility of us actually starting spring is more highly then to wait around and just HOPE OC in Spring will actually happen. I was thinking since we only had 2 options which is 1) stick around and do something for 6 months and cross our fingers that they do not pull the plug on us again in Spring or 2) withdrawal our names and risk it all by either reapplying to USF or apply to other schools. I WISH they had a 3rd choice; to move us forward to Spring CNL main campus where we are guaranteed to start without any worries of them pulling the rug from under us. I hope you all will read this, especially those who have accepted the offer and was looking forward to starting the program with me. Julie

Colettee...Did you receive my message? I messaged you back a while ago but didnt hear back. Did you decide to take up the offer?

Yes, I got in too! When I got the letter, I was so shocked that I got accepted but nervous at the same time. No phone call or email, just a thin packet via snail mail - more like a 3 page acceptance letter. What are your plans? Will you be accepting the spot? I have been contemplating myself but I decided to accept. I am dropping by the one stop shop soon so hopefully I can get all my questions answered

Did anyone get accepted to the OC cohort?

For those who went to orientation: How was it? What did they talk about? How many students was there? I just want to get as much information as possible Congratulations again to those who got accepted.

Congratulations @yoliness!!!

I haven't heard anything

@Phillycakes I myself try to stay strong, so writing it down helps me as a reminder too. I spoke to Ingrid via phone. As for her email, she responds to it accordingly. It takes her approx. 4 days to get back to you, so you should hear back from her soon. If there is anything I can shine some light on, feel free to ask away.

Hi everyone, its that time when the results comes out for all of us. For those who have been accepted, congratulation and strive on! To those who have been rejected - no worries and keep your head up high (if your heart is set to go into the field of medicine - I am sure you will find a way there...never give up, if you got let down once, twice maybe more that should not discourage you. It in fact should motivate you to move forward to show people who rejected you that your going to get there sooner or later. This is your future, your career, your life...You want it. Don't wait for it, GO TAKE IT. There is always room for improvement whether you feel you have done everything in your power - All I am saying is, if your still reading blogs, doing research on schools/programs or even in the process of studying your GRE/MCAT, you still have a chance! As long as you don't give up on yourself, your still a winner). Last but not least to those who are waitlisted...The letter states that we will find out this week but unfortunately we won't find out until next week I was talking to Ingrid and she told me that decisions are being made; GOOD NEWS for all....Phone calls are still being made after this week. They are currently sorting through all the students who have been accepted to see how many seats are available for additional students. **Crossing fingers and praying** Good luck everyone and keep your head up high

Congratulations ambitiousannie!!! I hope we all hear from USF soon. Getting excited and nervous... and for those who got rejected - Stay strong! Sooner or later you will get accepted into a school. Its always about the will to want and must have. Don't give up, if your heart is set to become a nurse one day. Your guarantee to get there. Believe in yourself. You came this far...might as well go all the way

Hello everyone, I hope everyone is having a wonderful day. I applied for last year's cohort as well and I was also wait-listed. I agree with @Nicolekay, the letters went out really late! I believe people were getting notified the same week or the week prior to start date. It was driving everyone crazy including myself. But crossing fingers to getting in this time around.
