Samuel Merritt University (Oakland) ELMSN-CM Fall 2025

[jianying wang]

Hello all! I Just submitted my application for Samuel Merritt University ELMSN-CM Program and wanted to open up a space for us to share regarding our applications & the acceptance process. 

* I don't know if the program is rolling admission or not, so I was submitting it so early. Has someone submitted it already?

We will find out next week, good luck!

They said they will make a decision next week . The cost of this program is $169k on website it's ridiculous they charge that much when it's a Nursing school not a doctor program.

I had my interview this week. Does anyone know what the class schedule is like? Online? How many days a week?

Anyone get an acceptance email? I keep checking LOL. It's hard to wait! I just want to know already!

[gracei]

Nothing yet. I feel the same way! 

[bowie510]

Hopefully we find out soon!! How did everyone feel about their interview? 

[gracei]

I thought mine went OK until I realized there was 70-100 interviews for 24 spots! Mine was about 2 hours long.

Wow 2 hours? Thats so long! How did you know that there are that many interviews? Who was your interviewer? I thought it was only 35 interviews in total. 

[gracei]

Yes, I originally thought there was only 35 but I reread the email and it says there will be 2-3 interviews per session! Now I'm so nervous. It won't let me post the interviewer name, my post got taken down. But she was really nice and easy to talk to.
