There isn't a recent forum so I wanted to create one!

Any reason for picking UOP over USF? I was also accepted into UOP.

There is! Got flatout rejected from USF 🙃

I'm super stoked though, because my SO is up at UoP too for PA

Gotcha, UOP seems like a perfect match. Congratulations to you!

Tysm! 😊 We'll have RN, MSN after our names in 2027, maybe we'll be colleagues in the same institution - who knows!

hi! has anyone been accepted to the SF campus but is going to commit somewhere else? I'm waitlisted and am wondering what my chances are of getting off : (

Question for those accepted and applied, how long ago did you complete your bachelors? I applied but I'm still in my second to last semester ( I graduate in Summer) and am wondering if the timeframe played a bigger part in not getting accepting.  Thank you and congrats to you all !!

I graduated in 2020, had a completely different career. started as a research coordinator in a hospital in 2023. first time applying 

It seems like some people have received an admission decision email. I still haven't heard anything yet. Are there still some people that haven't gotten an email yet? 

I received an email today and got rejected :')

May I ask what you did for your application that got you in? Did you happen to take the GRE? I emailed them for feedback on why I didn't get in, so hoping to hear back from them. Also for those who didn't get in, is it too soon to reapply to the September 1 deadline? I'm not sure what to do because the gap between Feb 1 - Sept 1 isn't that big for any major changes in regards to experiences and whatnot.

I have 0 clinical experience, but a lot of research projects and I work as a program coordinator for a women's health program. I think the personal statement + having strong letters of recommendation are important.

Hi! I got waitlisted for the SF campus.
