Samuel Merritt University ELMSN FNP/CM - 2025

Published

Hello everyone! I wanted to start a forum for those applying to the ELMSN FNP or CM program at Samuel Merritt for 2025!  I am currently applying to the ELMSN FNP in Sacramento which should be starting in January 2025. If anyone is also applying (either location) for the beginning of 2025 please reply and share any thoughts and questions! 🙂

Hello, 

does anyone happen to know how many spots they have for each program? 
I couldn't find the information on the site.

Google said, "Each cohort of Samuel Merritt University's Entry Level Master of Science in Nursing (ELMSN) program has 48 students, with 24 students enrolled in Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and 24 in Case Management. Students are not allowed to switch between tracks once the program has started.

Yes, I saw this as well. Not sure if that was still accurate. I'll try to ask around and see if I find out anything else.

Do you remember if this was for the FNP interview or Case management interview?

Also if you don't mind me asking, how much healthcare experience did you have prior to being interviewed?

Sorry I forgot this was for both groups LOL but these were for CM. 
 

um before I interviewed I had like 4 years of paid experience and then 1-2 years of volunteer.

Nope haven't been interviewed for FNP. I honestly think they are going to interview Case management first tbh
