Post your stats, any other important information you might have heard about the applicants, questions, concerns, anything!!

My stats:

Already been in nursing school- Dropped OUT- UGH, why????? *I digress...

*Received a degree from Sac State already, Cum Laude

Science G.P.A.= 3.4

Overall G.P.A. = 3.5

Teas= 84.1

1 year of healthcare experience

1 year of nursing school experience

Multiple community involvement experiences- ERG's, Volunteer on Diversity teams, Church, internships, mentoring, tutoring

*Hoping that this may be the year because I'm going no where fast in my current job field and I want to return to a profession that I have a passion for and am good at!!

=)

just talked to ------ today and she said she is not done calling???

Anybody here didn't receive a call nor a email from ------?

I emailed her twice to ask my application status, haven't heard anything from her yet :(

I can't wait to meet everyone!

for all those who were accepted in san mateo 2011, how did you find out the date of the orientation?

When ------ called me on Monday, she said that she will email us all the information regarding to the next steps we need to take by either Wednesday or Thursday. I am assuming that includes the date of the orientation, etc.

@ cerobbin and tbui408

Thank you so much for the info and words of encouragement. My number is fairly high on the alternate list but EB said that I still have a good chance for spring semester. Hoping for the best but prepared for the worst.

For those of you on the waitlist, I have to agree with everyone else: don't lose hope!

I applied for Fall 2010 and was basically dead last on the waitlist. I eventually moved to #35 after 2 months of finding out. They then carried my application over for Spring 2011. I was also nervous considering how high I was on the list, but thankfully I was accepted this time around!

From what I've read in other forums, if you're in the first 10 on the waitlist you have a very good chance of acceptance.

Good luck!

Has anyone received their acceptance packet in the mail yet?

Got accept to the San Mateo campus - I look forward to meeting you guys who will attend there :)

Michelle, I believe you and ai worked together in the online pharm or patho class :D

nope, not yet.. maybe SMU is waiting to collect everyone's letter of intent (due by nov. 15) before they mail the acceptance packages? i sure hope they mail it soon cuz their academic calendar says we are supposed to register for classes between 11/22-11/25 (http://www.samuelmerritt.edu/files/20112012_absn_san_mateo__january_cohort.pdf)

and congrats on your acceptance pondmud! im looking forward to meeting everyone at the orientation as well! :)

@Pondmud - we probably were in the same class! SBCC?

I've been checking the mail everyday for the acceptance package...nothing yet :(

Hey guys and gals,

If I've been accepted for January start in San Mateo, do you know if its possible to push acceptance til April in San Francisco?
