The University of Alabama - Application for FNP program - Fall 2025

Published

I just submitted my application for the family nurse practitioner program that starts in the fall of 2025. I was a nervous wreck! Hoping I did well enough to have a decent chance of acceptance. I am still in the middle of taking my BSN but will be done in July. I've been working as an RN for about six years before I decided to go back to get my BSN. I'm just hoping to get in so I can just keep going until the very end. I'm afraid if I take another "break" that "break" will turn into years and years of refusing to go back.

Sorry for the long post, but for anyone who may already be in the program, how long did it take most of y'all to hear back after submitting your interview? I'm going to be sitting on pins and needles!

I just got the interview email. Yikes! I am so nervous!! What questions were asked? Did you all find that it was easier than a live interview?

I also just got mine as well. I am going to try and get it completed before the end of the weekend.

I found out last night that I was denied at UWF, but this morning, I was accepted by USA (Summer 2025). I'm accepting that one until I hear the decision from UA. Still waiting!

I am joining the waiting game now. Completed my interview last week now just keeping my fingers crossed.

I'm still waiting. I interviewed on March 19. V.S, said they typically notify of results 2-3 weeks after the interview when I emailed to ask. She was going to check on it since we're going on 5 weeks now.

That is such a long time. I bet you are going crazy checking. Hopefully you will hear something soon.

That's exactly what happened to me. Well, I was denied at UNA and was accepted at USA. UA was my top choice, but I hadn't heard anything back so I went ahead and accepted my position at USA just in case. About a week and half later, I got the email from UA "unofficially" welcoming me into the Bama family. I completed everything that needs to be completed like background checks, drug screen, immunizations, physical, etc.. They said I should get my official letter in the next week or so!
