  1. PLU ELMSN 2017

    @msndiamond Classes can range anywhere from 8am to as late 5pm depending on the faculty availability. Our first summer semester we had pathophysiology until 7pm ish on one day of the week. Clinicals...
  2. PLU ELMSN 2017

    Talking about misconceptions and expectations (reiterating what other ELMs have said): 1) You may feel at some point in the program that you don't understand or get everything and that's okay. The...
  3. PLU ELMSN 2017

    Keep in mind also you will be signing a contract saying that you agree not to work at all during the first year of the program (pre-licensure). After you are licensed you are allowed to work 0.5-0.6...
  4. PLU ELMSN 2017

    Hi Kocono, I believe during orientation they can give you a more detailed look at the program costs. It looks like the total cost over 2 years is about $70,000. You can go to their website to find out...
  5. PLU ELMSN 2017

    Hi bsnhopefulmj, With BSNs I'm not entirely sure to be honest, since I work in the grad admissions office. I would imagine there is a sort of rubric they use since there has to be objectivity in order...
  6. PLU ELMSN 2017

    Being waitlisted does not necessarily mean you are rejected. In the very beginning they weed out all applicants who do not meet minimum criteria. After that, they have a grading rubric with an actual...
  7. PLU ELMSN 2017

    Current ELMSN student here. I also have graduate fellowship and have access to denied applicants from a looooooooong times ago (3+ years ago). I was archiving these old applications and come across...
  8. Hi Username invalid, Yes I have my previous bachelor's degree and had to complete all the prerequisites for entry into the program. The first year we do all the required courses, labs, and clinicals...
  9. I'm a student in an accelerated (no nursing background) MSN program and I'm in it for the paycheck AT THIS POINT IN TIME. Do I hope to find a passion? Yes. If I don't find a passion will it suck? Yes....
  10. PLU ELMSN 2016

    All I've heard is that they've increased available spots from 20 to 24. I don't think there is a way to find out waitlist position unless you emailed them directly. Even then they may or may not give...

    I received a status update saying I was not admitted. I'll be attending PLU this June then! Good luck to everyone still waiting to hear back and also with all your future

    I went to school at University of Oregon. Go ducks!
  13. PLU ELMSN 2016

    Congrats on getting in! I didn't get an interview for community public health so I'll just assume I can't get in because with how many applicants are applying the waitlist must be really long even if...
  14. Seattle University APNI 2016 Applicants

    I haven't heard back from Community Public Health track yet. I was offered admission to PLU so I will probably go with PLU since their deadline is Feb. 28 to accept or decline (or else they can offer...
  15. PLU ELMSN 2016

    I haven't received mine yet either. I'm also out of town for the next 10 days so I will be relying on my roommates to keep an eye out for it when they check the mail. I went ahead and submitted my...
  16. Seattle University APNI 2016 Applicants

    Whoops! Sorry I mistakes it for something else I read. Disregard the AGNP comment. I wonder if that pending message means they aren't accredited yet? Well that's in 2 years so if that is the case, it...
  17. Seattle University APNI 2016 Applicants

    @woodlee9 It's the MSN program for non-nurses who have completed a bachelor's degree (ELMSN). It is an advanced generalist nursing degree. I intend on going forward with the DNP afterwards though (2...
  18. PLU ELMSN 2016

    I'll probably send in the agreement form for now and wait a couple more weeks to see if I hear anything from them about an interview. If I don't within a couple weeks, I'll assume I'm not getting an...
  19. PLU ELMSN 2016

    Nice! Accepted applicants have until 3 weeks from the date of the letter to accept the offer. That makes it like February 29th as the deadline x.x Oh dear. I hope SU gets the ball rolling a little...
  20. Seattle University APNI 2016 Applicants

    Just got accepted into PLU and received the official letter today via email. I also applied to SU and haven't heard anything from them yet. It's making me feel anxious because we have to accept within...
  21. PLU ELMSN 2016

    Hey all, Just got the official emailed letters of acceptance. Anybody else got theirs
  22. PLU ELMSN 2016

    That's an excellent point! I agree that the standard is becoming more DNP focused for NPs now. I remember in last year's posts on the SU allnurses page and on the Facebook group, that prescriptive...
  23. PLU ELMSN 2016

    Thanks for the information rei. I figured it was similar to management kind of like what BSN trained nursed do. However, I can't help but question whether that would make us competitive in today's...
  24. PLU ELMSN 2016

    curiousrei, When you received your call of acceptance, what did they talk about in terms of what to do next? Did she send an email with documents and things to be filled out, signed, and returned? Was...
  25. PLU ELMSN 2016

    Oh haha. Yeah The rei part and your picture made me think of Japan. I double majored in psychology and Japanese and I've studied Japanese since I was a freshman in high school. I mentioned earlier...
