did you finished organic Chemistry ? cause they said if not . you will be only on waiting list.

sorry but where did you hear/see this? I know that Chemistry for Health Sciences was a prerequisite, but I was in touch with a counselor since June and clarified that Organic Chemistry was actually not a prerequisite.

Those are two different classes. I took Organic Chemistry I that is strictly organic Chemistry for pre-med, and there was some confusion between a few counselors I had contacted because some of them said that that will count as the Health Science Chemistry requirement --however I took a specific Health Science Chemistry class which is a specific Chemistry class that includes general and organic geared to pre-health majors at a community one semester later that was specifically mentioned in the course equivalency chart on Dominican nursing website. Sorry I'm just a little stressed at the confusion because I got a C- in Organic Chemistry but an A in Health Sciences Chemistry so I'm hoping that they don't take my Ochem grade LOL and I thought it was all good since I clarified with a counselor..guess we'll wait and see.

Hi Joara! I am still waiting on USF and Samuel Merritt, but was also admitted to Dominican and am very likely to accept the offer. Hoping to connect with everyone here as well!

That's awesome! I am waiting to hear back from USF but I feel like they're great schools and are on the same level in my opinion.

I live in Marin so it makes sense for me.. Also, Dominican offers lots of scholarship so I am hoping it will be a better deal at the end of the day.

Yes the merit scholarship is great. Definitely lower overall price than USF. Also it seems that Dominican may get back to in-person classes faster than schools in SF? Maybe. I live/work in SF but Dom was my first choice.
