Samuel Merritt University ELMSN Fall 2021

Published

Hey All

I haven't yet seen a forum for this cohort yet and I wanted to start one! Applications are due soon and wanted to see how others are going along with the process and see if theres any advice or recommendations that anyone has. This could be with the application, interviews, pre-reqs, HESI, etc. I appreciate those who comment and add to the forum!

A little about me: originally from NYC moved out to Oakland in 2015. I worked in Urgent Care, and have volunteer work during Covid-19. Finishing up a few pre-reqs now and hopefully will have them done in time for the application due date Dec 1st. Let me know if there are any other questions for me, I am very interested to see the backgrounds of others who are also applying, its a stressful but exciting time for everyone! ?

P.S. if there is a forum for the Fall 2021 ELMSN program please link it! 

Did anyone interview today and can share how it went? ?

Hello! I’m new to this forum. Has anyone who applied for ELMSN-FNP heard anything? I have not received any correspondence this entire time but did get notice I was not accepted into the Summer ABSN program which I applied for simultaneously. 

I also applied to the ELMSN-FNP and have not heard anything either. ?

Hey all, FNP applicant here as well as a first time poster! I emailed Anne Seed from admissions about the FNP interviews and she said that while she didn't have any information about when we'll know anything, she told me that "my application was in queue to be reviewed by the faculty." So it seems like they are still reviewing applications for interviews, at least for ELMSN FNP. Hope we all hear soon!

She said the same to me! I know that interviews are this month though so hopefully we hear something soon.

Hopefully! 

I think what makes it hard is that we don't know when we are going to hear back. Like, if we had a date, we are just waiting for that date to come. But since we don't its agonizing because you don't know if today is the day...or not.

I ended up emailing Anne as well, I feel so bad for her, she's probably getting so many emails LOL but she said she doesn't know and that she emailed them for an update. Not sure what to expect right now but I'm just going to assume that maybe they'll stretch out interviews into the next month as well.... Who knows, I'm just assuming. This is torture! 

yeah, I want to email her but I really appreciate it when I get updates from you guys on the forum. @ld93 is Anne going to get back to you with an update from the admissions team? 

Another week of no news. My anxiety is hitting the roof

I just got an invitation for the FNP program!

Guys! The interview invites for FNP have gone out. I got an invite. So excited I’m shaking! 

I also received an offer to interview for FNP! Looking forward to meeting you all!
