and if they know 16 got accepted why dont they tell everyone this week??

Marykdarling · Nov 15, 2012

Maybe they are waiting to see how many people who were offered spots are accepting or not, and then going down the alternate list? I'm so sorry, I wish I knew more... Best of luck!

Maybe but like saka said they told her she won't be updated on the waitlist until early December. Guess we will find out next week!

hi everyone

i got in, they sent me the email on Wednesday, Nov 14

best wishes to everyone out there who is still waiting

and to saka,

i also live in the evergreen area of san jose, by raging waters, and will be commuting back and forth to oakland

i hope you get in, and maybe commuting together can be a very economical and convenient option for both of us =]

Yea everybody is telling me there are good chances of getting in being no. 4 on the waitlist. I really hope i get in .

Marykdarling · Nov 16, 2012

Good luck to the waitlisters!! Please keep us updated. If anyone is commuting from Sac, please let me know!

Hi Marykdarling,

In your email, did you get a date that you have to respond/accept by?

Hi everyone,

Congratulations to all of you who got in to the BSN program! That's wonderful!

I was notified on Tuesday that I am on the wait list ): 6th out of 9! Not sure how to feel, especially since someone posted that only 16 community college transfers were accepted! Now I just have to wait until early December to see if I was bumped into the program.

Was anyone else put on the wait list or have any idea what my chances are?

To the people who got in, when was the deadline for u guys to accept and give ur deposit?

Marykdarling · Nov 17, 2012

Hey ladies... The letter of intent & security deposit has to be received by the university by November 28th. I already got my login information and student ID number for SMU, and will be contact by financial aid soon. I don't really know much more than that -- I wish I did!

I will post more when I find out more information!

Hey congrats to all that got in! I just graduated from SMU in April from the BSN program and trust me it's amazing and the loans were totally worth it lol But for those worried about Fin Aid trust me when I say that they work miracles! I came from Mills and my loan to scholarship/grant money was horrible. At SMU my scholarships and grants far outweighted my loans, but my situation may not have been like everyone else. Good luck to all and have a wonderful 2 years! Trust me when I say it flies by regardless of how little sleep you get

Awww, thank you so much! I am SO excited!! Some of my friends have been waiting 2-3 years to get into an ADN program, and I just wasn't interested in doing that. I feel SO fortunate that this my first time I could apply to nursing school and I got in! Do you have any suggestions for us, Kenderella89? Do you live in the bay or did you commute? I'll be coming in from Sacramento!
