Aloha , I'm opening up this forum for interested applicants to begin the program Fall 2026. Hoping we could use this platform as a way to send updates, ask questions about the applications, etc! Is anyone submitting for the first time? Or plan on re-submitting? ☺️

I just submitted! I'm so nervous but hoping for the best. It sucks that we have to wait 4 months (or more) to find out if we got in 😭

This will be my second time applying but it's been 4 years since then. They took away the master in education and leadership unfortunately due to not many interest and what I wanted to apply for. It's on a rolling basic so you do it earlier you're supposed to find out within the time frame. However, December is when I got my last time and I applied the first day. 

Aloha! Submitted my application for the GEPN program not too long ago. Praying to hear back with good news! 

Happy Holidays all! Here's to hoping 2026 brings acceptance offers for us all 🙂

End of January 2026 can't come soon enough for us all to find out! Hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday and Happy New Year!

I know the email that confirmed the application said end of January, but reading past forums...I saw a lot of people get their decisions early January. Has anyone received any updates?

Unfortunately I haven't gotten one. I feel end of January would be more accurate however you never know! 
Hope it's sooner than later!
