Thanks! I know the deadline is April 1... So... Do we have any idea of when we might hear something back? I'm such a lousy waiter! LOL! Did you take the GRE? How long have you been an RN? I didn't have to take the GRE, but I've only been a nurse since June 2015 and working as an RN since July 2015... And I don't complete my BSN until May of this year! I've been told that it's not a problem, but... That might just be in theory! So I'm scared my lack of experience will weigh against me!

I was told we wouldn't find out until after April 1, but nothing specific. I did not take the GRE and I have 6 years experience. I would hope their final decisions are based on the candidate as a whole and not one single criterion. If that is the case, someone with 1 year experience could be accepted over someone with 6 years experience. Samford is a great school, For our own sakes, I hope we get accepted! Waiting is tough, but it won't be for very much longer. We will soon find out our fate! Lol
