Hi, there,
Since you have applied for the Shady Grove campus (and, by the way, there is no difference in how your application is evaluated versus those who asked for the Baltimore campus) have you ever been here? There is an ideal time to visit coming up - Saturday, October 24, 9 am to noon. The UMB nursing program will have a booth where you can meet with faculty, admissions folks and current students - maybe even some graduates of the BSN program at SG. No RSVP is needed and you can come and go anytime as you like. Bring family - there will be refreshments. I will be there and would love to meet you.

Good luck to you both. Let me know if you have any questions about the program at the Shady Grove campus and hang in there, it normally takes 4 to 6 weeks after the deadline to hear the admissions decision. So we are talking about maybe mid October for most folks. But that is just a guess - it is different for every applicant group.

Good luck guys. I started looking on the old forum for fall 2009 ... they started getting results around March 11 (their deadline was Feb 1). So if the time span is similar we might be getting results around Oct. 11.

You are correct - after Committee Ready if your status changes to Admit Institution your official offer is in the mail. You will have two weeks to sign an acceptance agreement and send it in with a $400 deposit. Then your status changes to Accept Applicant. At that point, the only thing that will trigger rescinding your offer is if your last transcript shows you got less than a B in your last prerequisite courses.
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!!!

To Grey Lady: how is overall GPA calculated? I know to be competitive it needs to be above a 3.0... is the overall GPA from the 59 prereqs taken or EVERY single college class EVER taken (even it it was basket 101 weaving and it doesn't fill the 59 rereqs or you took 'stage drama for nuclear physics class 211' and it wasn't in the 59....) Sorry I'm just confused as to how 'GPA is calculated down at UMB'... thank you if you can answer that

Science GPA= Chem, Bio, AP1, AP2, Micro, Nutr.
Overal GPA= Just the 59 prereqs on the coursework page submitted?
or
Overal GPA= every class EVER taken since college was started.... even if you didn't finish a degree & switched majors...

hey scrub<3... when was all your stuff sent in... how long had it been there? did you have it all in way before the Sept 1st deadline?
I guess my question is.... how long was the time period between 'complete ready for review and comm. ready'? thanks!
