Samuel Merritt ELMSN FNP FALL 2020 Oakland

Nursing Students School Programs

Updated:   Published

Hello fellow applicants, alumni, and SMU associates,

Can anyone provide insight into the application timeline for SMU's ELMSN-FNP program intended to start Fall 2020 (Oakland cohort)? The deadline to submit applications through NursingCAS was December 1, 2019.

-When should we expect correspondence to interview or for denial?

-Are interviews 1:1 or mixed, or both?

-When do final acceptances usually go out?

Thank you all.

Still nothing ?

Nothing on my end either. ?

Nothing. I’m assuming the worst at this point. ?

Hi all! ?

It's my first time posting on here but I just got an interview invite today and will be going Mon 3/2 at 2:30pm. Pretty nervous, I feel like they don't give much time to prepare for the interview. But I'm grateful for the opportunity. Anyone else joining that day?

Does anyone have any tips on how to prepare for the interview?

Hi imena,

Hope to see you on Monday as I will be there with you. there is really less time to prepare and I m stressed out what to prepare and what not to? Any heads up.....only one tip I got is Be yourself from others. This portal really helped me to know what to expect on interview day

Anyone else heard back today ? I’m losing hope slowly ...

Nothing here either. I feel the same way as @Ayeeeesha, loosing hope too.

I was really hoping they were just late sending out notifications. But I guess not... ? Congrats again to everyone who received an interview!

Just declined my interview invite. Hopefully this opens up space for those of you still waiting to get invited to an interview this week! (:

I just emailed Anne and I said since I haven't heard anything I assume my application didn't make the cut. In which she replied: I would not make that assumption. I have not been told that all invitations have been extended.

What does this mean? So they are extending interview dates?

I would assume what you said and also if people do not accept the interviews or are not found a suitable fit maybe a they’ll send out more interviews

I just got an email this morning too (after I emailed them) saying that they haven’t been notified yet that all interview invites have been sent. Maybe they’re still sending out more? Not sure
