University of San Francisco CNL Entry Masters

Future FNP and Sandman!!

Congrats to you too Houdini. I'm definitely going to USF, so maybe we'll be classmates!

Haha, hi houdini! Congrats to you! Are you still waiting for Samuel Merritt's response?

I got a rejection letter yesterday but that's ok. I got into my first choice. It was funny though, because the letter said I got rejected from the Spring session when I applied for the Summer session. Maybe I marked the wrong program??? Oh well...

Thanks

I'm still waiting to hear from Samuel Merritt, although after hearing that waitlist letters went out this past weekend and I'm still out of the loop, I expect a rejection letter will be on its way to me in the next few weeks.

This whole admission thing is VERY arbitrary. I know someone who was accepted to Ivy League nursing programs but waitlisted at Samuel Merritt this year. Applicants are getting stronger and stronger, to the point that admissions staff are choosing from among the cream of the crop and it almost seems irrelevant which perfect candidate they choose, because all candidates are amazing.

well... received my letter from USF today. I was looking forward to moving home to the bay area, but I guess it will be another year here on the east coast. I'm going to be going to Drexel Univ. in Philadelphia - accelerated BSN - start in September. Best of luck to all of you who were admitted to USF - it is a great university, and I'm sure you will have a wonderful, rewarding experience there. To those of you who didnt make the cut (like me!), good luck wherever you choose to go. Don't give up - keep applying.

I still haven't heard from USF, so I guess that means I've been rejected? :/

Not necessarily, Sarah... don't lose heart! If you are overseas it's possible they chose not to call, but admission packets were mailed late last week I believe. Not sure how long it takes to get post to you. Even if you're not accepted, you might be waitlisted -- as many programs do this -- and it's possible that those letters have not yet been mailed.

It's not over until it's over -- a hope I am clinging to.

Aww thanks, I figured they'd email me because I am overseas.

I guess I'll just wait for snail mail to get to me at some point this week or the next!

I haven't heard anything either... although my application was complete on March 5th (3 weeks late) because they didn't get 2 - yes two - rec letters that a teacher had mailed. I hand delivered the 3rd one finally. I called today and they said it takes 4 to 8 weeks to process applications... so... who knows? I might get rejected, or my application might be deferred until next year...or I could get in I guess. I'll be happy any way, even though rejection in any form is hard!!

Good luck everyone and I will let you know.

xoxo

To everyone attending USF for ME-CNL Summer '09 start, I've started a Facebook group for everyone to get to know one another ("University of San Francisco ME-CNL8"). Hope to see you there!
