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 all, I got an email today from the graduate division saying I was accepted. I'm wondering since we had to do 2 apps, do we need a second email from the specific program we applied to that says we are also accepted? I don't want to get too excited if we need a second letter...

I called the graduate division about this! They said receiving the acceptance letter is an acceptance from the program. You may receive another letter, though I am not sure.

Congratulations everyone! I'm so sorry to those who got waitlisted, but good luck! I got accepted MS-NEL! This was my 2nd time applying. I was waitlisted the first time. I received graduate division email as well.

Is anyone as nervous as I am? I know they emailed stating decisions would be sent toward the end of January but I just keep hoping we will find out sooner! 

Hi Charlie, when did they send the email stating decisions would be sent toward the end of January?  Was this in addition to the email that they received your application?
