University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa | Graduate Entry Program in Nursing (GEPN)-MS-DNP Fall 2025

Published

Hi everyone, I'm opening up this forum as applications have opened for Fall 2025. Hoping we could use this platform as a way to send updates, ask questions about the applications, etc! Has anyone submitted yet? ☺️

Hi there! I've submitted my application for Fall 2025 matriculation. Any idea on when decisions come out? I see online it's typically late March or early April but that seems to be pertaining to their undergraduate programs. I'm eager to hear back! 😊

Hi @Mikayla Butler, I also submitted my application for Fall 2025. What track did you apply for? I emailed the GEPN coordinator and he said we would hear back by the end of January 2025. Keeping our fingers crossed for the both of us! 🤗

Awesome! I applied for DNP-FNP, how about you? I've received 1/6 decisions (an acceptance) although I'm anxiously awaiting to hear from UH as it's my top choice. Thanks for the info and I wish you the best of luck!! 

I also applied for the DNP-FNP program. When did you submit your graduate school and NCAS? Where else did you apply as well? I was previously waitlisted, so UH is my top choice as well!

Nice, in this together then! I submitted 9/22 and 9/26. I applied to JHU, Northeastern, USD, Western, and I'm going to apply to Vanderbilt as well. How about you? Did you apply to UH last rotation? 

Hi, 

Nice to meet you! I applied for the Fall 2025 cycle. I applied for the DNP-PMH. Hopefully, we all get accepted. 

@Mikayla Butler I submitted 9/22 and 9/30. Yes, I applied last year and got waitlisted. I'm from here so I'm planning to also apply to another couple of nursing schools but UH is my first choice program. I also graduated from UH in 2018 with my bachelor's degree. Good luck to us both!

@magustin9 Welcome! When did you submit your apps and are you applying to other schools too?

@Mmo9 I submitted my application on 9/13 and 9/18. At the moment, I'm considering applying for Chaminade BSN program.  But UH is my first choice since I live in Hawaii. 

@magustin9 I am also planning to apply to Chaminade's BSN program. Did you finish all of your pre-requisites?

@Mmo9 For GEPN or Chaminade? I'm  missing my psychology and PHYL 142 lab class. I'm planning on finishing these classes in the Spring semester. Hopefully, my work experience will help me stand out. 

Hi everyone! I submitted my application for the GEPN-MS-APHN track. I am praying and hoping for an acceptance letter in January. This is the only program I am applying to. 😅
