Dominican University CA Fall 2022 Application Cycle

Published

This thread is for anybody who is submitting their Application to Dominican University of California’s Fall 2022 Nursing Program by the March 1st deadline. 

Hello everybody!

I just finished having a meeting with the admissions counselor and here's some info I got from that: 

Because there were only 11 spots for transfers and so many qualified applicants, they had to deny many with in-progress pre-req's to filter it somehow (I had organic chem in progress during my application). So, if you had an amazing application/stats and you were wondering why you might've been rejected--that may be why! He also said that perhaps 2 years ago I would've been waitlisted but because it's much more competitive now, they had to do this.

So, he told me to email him mid-July to move over my application to Spring + update my transcripts with all my completed courses. (But, of course, admittance isn't guaranteed.)

I'd recommend getting in contact with the admissions counselor to fully discuss the results of your application, because being left in the dark doesn't feel very nice LOL. My meeting with him definitely cleared a lot of things up and I feel a whole lot better!

I also asked him whether the number of applicants was higher in the Spring or fall and he said that it depends. Because Dominican is one of the few universities to accept Spring applicants, it can get pretty busy around that time as well. 

Hey I was accepted into the program and I am so excited to meet everyone else!

Hello, I got priority waitlist for fall 2023 at Dominican University of California. I was wondering if you could tell me how it works and what the chances of getting off are. I really want to go here so any advice would be awesome.
