Nothing new, just that they will accept people on waiting list all the way up to classes starting in January if need be. Crossing my fingers!

I was wondering if anyone currently attending St. Luke's would be interested in selling their first semester textbooks? It looks like we do need the access codes and I would want to cross reference the ISBNs. Perhaps I could pay you more than a bookstore would pay you but still pay less than I would have to pay a bookstore

Hi, we use most of the same books for the 1st semester for the 2nd semester as well. Bonus on that is the books needed for the second semester aren't very expensive because you'll already have most of them. I don't know what the prices will be from the bookstore but I got mine from US Elsevier Health Bookshop | Mosby, Saunders, Netter & more and used a coupon code to get 25% off, that was the cheapest I could find them. The school provided a coupon code but you can probably google and find one as well, that is what I did, the school didn't send out the code until just before classes started for our class.

Has anyone heard anything back about Fall 2013 acceptance?

Nothing yet. I heard that Research's letters went out already and am anxiously waiting to hear from St. Luke's. Good luck!

I got a letter from research, didn't get in though. Really hoping I get in for Saint Luke's though. I emailed them and they said everyone should know something before the first week of April.

Does anyone know what gpa they usually accept? I applied with a 3.7 so kinda of nervous since I saw a lot of people had higher.

I received an acceptance phone call about one week ago to Saint Luke's, then two days ago received my acceptance letter! The letter stated I had until March 28 to return the acceptance form with the two hundred dollar deposit, so I believe if you have been accepted, you should have received your phone call/packet already. Has anyone else been accepted for Fall 2013?

Jordan_e_l · Mar 21, 2013

I got accepted! I just received my call today and I have until April 4th to pay my $200 depostit. Wow talk about jinxing it. I litterally got on here to see if anyone had posted yet and then after I read the comment I look at my phone and had a voicemail. So excited!

When I got in (Fall of 2012) the average accepted GPA was a 3.7. I got in with a 3.91, however, we did not have to submit TEAS scores so that may make a difference for you all.

still keeping my fingers crossed for ANY kind of news. Has anyone gotten word of the waiting list?

I called them multiple times and they never called back. Yesterday I finally went in to see the director of admission. He told me I didn't get in because I am missing 1 science class which I am taking right now. It said on their website that you need to be on track to complete all required courses by August. He denied that and said I must have all classes done. Then he said they don't have a waiting list, which I don't understand. The admission lady who reviewed my transcript wouldn't own up to it now and she also told me it'll be fine since I will have all required classes by August. honestly I don't know what's going on and I feel misled by their website and the admission lady. It's really disappointing and I don't know what everyone's experience has been. I met all their other requirements except the class which I will be done in May with good grades. It seemed like there's no way around this and I only applied to Saint Luke's. It will be another 8 month wait.
