  1. SFSU Nursing Master's Program - how is it?

    guest2016 posted a topic in School, College Programs

    Hello, everyone: I've done a lot of digging in the forum archives, and can't find a lot of posts from current SFSU Nursing students in the entry-level Master's Programs (ELMSN, now also ELM-A). Can...

    Just got an email. Our application statuses have changed online. Check yours for an admission

    Congrats to everyone who has been getting acceptances from other programs recently! Does anyone know if UCSF does a wait list? It seems like at least a few people accepted to UCSF may end up going...

    I don't think that your age will county against you. If anything, it could help. The final question that I was asked in my interview was quite age-biased, in retrospect. To paraphrase, "Are you sure...

    It does seem like quite a long time to wait. I'm fairly sure I didn't get in, so I'm working on figuring out how to make the best of my second-choice option. It's a lower-tier school with a curriculum...

    The AGNP group was told at the MEPN meet-and-greet on Saturday that the meeting of the admissions committee was on Feb. 11, and that we could expect email notification to check our status online on or...

    guest2016 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    The questions were primarily about nursing as a field, and your motivation, experience, and goals. They didn't seem to want to get to know me as a person much, and there were no situational behavioral...

    Hey everyone: I just got home from my morning interview session. Here are some tips for those of you who haven't interviewed yet. 1) Don't be nervous. Honestly, the UCSF staff who did the...

    Which classes don't match the schedule? I'll look into it when I try to register

    guest2016 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    I've found that some nursing school cohorts maintain active Facebook group pages. To get the inside scoop on another nursing program, I sent a message to the previous year's cohort group administrator...

    guest2016 replied to Mamameema's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey Tija: I can't answer your first question, as I haven't tried yet. But the schedules for spring and summer 2016 are available online here: Academic Calendar - San Francisco State University Finals...

    @FutureNPisMe: Here is the list that I mentioned having compiled from various online and in-person sources. Not all of the following top 50 questions will be relevant to UCSF, but it's a pretty good...

    One more resource for interview questions, if you haven't read the past years of MEPN threads yet (this was posted by ah11): =============================== Here are some questions many of us had: 1....

    @SBCVixen Sorry you didn't get better news! Thank you for starting this thread way back when, and best of luck with your other applications. @FutureNPisMe I've been compiling a list of typical UCSF...

    You, too, gatewood! Good luck and sorry we won't be able to meet. As mid-life career changers, I'm sure we would have a lot to chat about. I look forward to seeing more of your posts here on the...

    Hey everybody, I got my letter in the snail mail today (just got home and checked). I was invited to interview for the AGNP track. Hope to meet some of you in person on interview day - for Bay Area...

    guest2016 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    My snail mail doesn't arrive until 6pm, so I have no news. But I have been surprised by the credentials of those who have been rejected. You all sound like fantastic candidates! Don't let this deter...

    guest2016 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    This lack of clarity and transparency is not helpful, and it doesn't seem necessary. As a point of comparison, another school communicated with me no less than five times between application...

    Wow! Good to know, thanks. My birthday is tomorrow so I'm hoping it will happen

    guest2016 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    That's tough, and frustrating for people who live out of state. I live in the Bay Area, so I will post as soon as I get my letter (Saturday, I'm guessing) just to let everyone else know that theirs...

    guest2016 replied to SBCvixen's topic in School, College Programs

    I can get into the website, and nothing has changed under the Status tab. Same as this morning. Snail mail, really? That is very old-fashioned. Every other school I've applied to and heard back from...

    Just a big high-five of encouragement to all the applicants like me, no matter how things turn out. If it's a yes, celebrate! And if it's a no, don't let it deter you on your path to becoming the...

    Hey there, They reached out to me to tell me that my application could not be processed. If you don't hear anything, and it's marked as verified in NursingCAS, I would imagine that you're fine. I was...

    Congrats to everyone who got in! I also heard by email yesterday afternoon (3:14pm PST) that I got in. There's an informal acceptance form to fill out online, then a formal invite from SFSU will...
