Samuel Merritt ELMSN FNP Fall 2015

[mikoBB]

I read through all pages of the Fall 2014 and 2013 versions of this thread, and found it very helpful and reassuring to see fellow applicants statistics. I couldn't find one for Fall 2015 and would like to start one. I'm hoping to pull some data together for Fall 2015 so that we know where we are and get a better idea of our chances of getting into the program.

We could also help each other out and create a 'bond' over the celebration of acceptance and the depression of rejection on this thread. It's about to be a worldwind of emotion over the next few months. Happy application process!!

This thread is to keep lively and healthy our obsessions, curiosities, and heightened but needless anxieties about our own wishes to become a competent FNP and our perceived expectations that others may be "better" at it. So, as is tradition plus few added items:

in case anyone was wondering...! i called in today to confirm some details about the application timeline/interview. it sounds like no one has been invited for interviews yet - these will be going out closer to the end of the month. the interview has to be in person and will be in feb. decisions will still be announced early march.

good luck, all :)

Received an interview invite this morning! Not sure if it's because I am a re-applicant (I interviewed for the Sacramento campus in the Fall), perhaps re-applicants will be first? Good luck everyone!

Was it through email or postal mail?

[coycoy22]

Thanks for the info leeezy! How did they contact you? Hope to hear soon! This wait has felt like forever from SMU...

[leeezy]

Got my invite through e-mail. I wonder what the interview is like? 0__o

[coycoy22]

Hope we all receive some good news soon!!! leeezy - If you're going the FNP route, I heard that it is a group interview, also they give your group scenarios to see how you interact with others.

I have been reading through multiple threads for the for the ELMSN FNP programs.

I received my invitation for interview yesterday so everyone who applied should hopefully be hearing back in the coming week :) Im wishing everyone the best of luck!!!!

I interviewed with SMU right out of college and wasn't admitted. I took what I learned from the interview and applied it to my current job situation and worked for the last 3 years to understand the role of an NP more dynamically.

---> I heard about the group interviews through other threads BUT would love if anyone could better assist with any specific details.

Best of luck to everyone

Hi Leezy and everyone,

I was hoping you'd elaborate on the interview you had when you were invited for the Sacramento campus. Would you?

I too received an invite on the 21st and have my interview scheduled for February 2nd. I'm excited for the opportunity.

Thanks!

Anyone else heard back yet...?

[mljjohnson]

I still have yet to hear back. It seems that only re-applicants or wait-listed people have heard back so far. Does anyone know if they are notifying us by email or postal mail?
