Re: Samuel Merritt BSN Fall 2009?
I graduated from the BSN program at Samuel Merritt a couple of weeks ago.
The BSN program accepts very few if any transfer students (meaning those who aren't from Mills, Holy Names, or Saint Mary's) during the fall term. You have MUCH better chances in the spring. This is because students in those three feeder schools get priority placement, and most of them move over during the fall term.
They won't accept a GPA lower than a 3.0, and it really should be even higher than that if you expect to compete for placement. The lowest I've heard for a transfer student being admitted was a 3.3. The reasoning is that if someone can't maintain a B average while completing prereqs then they aren't likely to make it though this BSN program
Hope this helps!
