I got the call around 11:30am this morning! Good luck everyone!

Hey ck93! Which school did you decide on instead, if you don't mind sharing?

Hey guys this is the link to our FB group: Log into Facebook | Facebook Or you can search for "CSULA ABSN / ELMN 2016 Cohort" :) Can't wait to meet everyone!

I need to add at least one friend to create the FB group! Would someone be able to PM me the link to their FB so we can friend each other and get that started? :) congrats to everyone accepted so far and sending best wishes to everyone still waiting to hear! Also, I need to relocate to LA for this program. Is anyone else in the same boat and would like to live together? We can discuss on the FB group once it's set up!

I also got the phone call! I've been accepted!!!! Omg I'm in disbelief. Hyperventilating. Should I go ahead and make a FB group for us? [emoji4]

Do you guys know if the alternate list is ranked and if we can email to find out what number we are?

For those who have interviewed, did she mention when we would be notified of decisions?

Yeah usually admin don't let you post links and take it down after awhile. That's why I just put the end of the link and had you paste it after the Facebook url. Glad you found it!

Hey guys! You can join the FB group by either searching for "MSMU ABSN Summer 2016-2017 Cohort" or putting this after the FB url: /groups/700590373411347/

I need to add at least one friend to make the group! Can someone PM me the link to their Facebook so we can friend each other?

@Whisper28 I can make the FB group! I was gonna name it "MSMU ABSN Summer 2016" ... should I name it Summer 2017 instead so we don't get confused with the existing group?

@hiyall123 Still waiting for every other school to get back to me, since their application cycles were later than MSMU. MSMU is one of my top choices though! I would pick an LA school for sure since I want to live around there. How about you? @LBrown1212 This was my first time applying. Honestly, I think what got me accepted was my personal statement. I poured my heart into it, and backed up all my claims with examples or experiences I've gone through. My undergrad GPA was just okay (slacked off a lot in sophomore year), my prereqs were mostly A's. I had 4 classes in progress at the time of application (3 of which were complete with A's by the time of my interview). Good luck!

The last time I sent an email was a week ago to ask if my application had been received. The email I got back stated that applications were still being reviewed, and to be patient, and that I would receive an email confirmation once my application had been reviewed. But I haven't received any confirmation yet so I am a bit worried!

The dates were in the "ABSN Next Steps" email I received on Jan 20! It's on the bottom of the email.

In the email, it says orientation is may 5 and classes start may 9!

Nope nothing in the mail yet!

@Hanabiwabi congrats! When did you submit your application? I still haven't received the email confirming my application was received

Wow it's super early this year!! When is your interview?

So I emailed to confirm and this was the reply: "Thank you so much for your interest in Mount Saint Mary's University. It is recommended to take the Bioethics course during the program." So does that mean we can still take bioethics at Taylor? I'll call to double check next week

@achurley what is the total cost of the program for 2 years?

Omg I was planning to take it at Taylor University as well! To lighten up the course load in the second semester of the program, and it would have been a lot cheaper than taking it at MSMU.

I just emailed the coordinator! Hopefully my application has been received and they just haven't gotten around to emailing me

I'm worried because I haven't received anything of the sort! I submitted mine by Priority Express and the tracking says it was delivered last Thursday morning. Is there a number or email I can contact to check? I've just been contacting the ABSN Graduate Assistant during my application process.

Have you guys heard back at all about CSULA receiving your application?

I've applied to a bunch of CSUs, UCLA MECN, and MSMU. CSULA is my top choice because of the option to continue to the MSN after the pre-licensure portion! Are you guys planning to do your MSN after as well?
