  3. Samuel Merritt ABSN - Spring 2019

    I emailed the Sac counselor and she said admission notifications will be sent out early-mid October. So it's definitely just someone who was really high on waitlist, if anything. Hang in there, only...

  6. Samuel Merritt ABSN - Spring 2019

    Last application period, they sent out emails saying "your application has been forwarded for faculty review" or something a few weeks to a month before decisions were released. Hopefully those will...
  7. Samuel Merritt ABSN - Spring 2019

    Yes, it changed to the 2018-9 application. However, if you look on the left side of the NursingCAS login screen, there is a link to access the 2017-8 submitted

    My mom dropped out of college in her 20s and then got married and had kids. After 20 years of being a housewife, she decided she wanted to go back and finish her Bachelors degree. Then, at age 45 she...

    I haven't heard anything and don't really expect to. Everything in past forums suggests that kind of movement is pretty unlikely... good to stay optimistic, but hopefully you applied for the next...

    I'm not sure how helpful this is @WebbC1 but I submitted on the deadline 7/1 and received the prelim email on 7/23. However, my application was already verified as I applied for the last

  13. Samuel Merritt ABSN - Spring 2019

    Hi everyone, The stats I posted (~3.5 both GPAs, 95% HESI) were what I applied with for the last Sacramento cohort. These numbers got me only slightly above halfway on the waitlist. I had pathophys...

  17. Samuel Merritt Fall 2018 ABSN Program

    Pretty frustrating...seems like they do this to every cohort so I'm unfortunately not surprised. Hopefully their admissions process doesn't indicate the level of organization within the actual...
  18. Samuel Merritt Fall 2018 ABSN Program

    Oh my gosh, end of June!!! I agree, I don't think I can survive that long without knowing! Haha. Well at least we're all in the same boat. It will be really stressful if they roll out notifications...
  19. Samuel Merritt Fall 2018 ABSN Program

    Anyone else wondering if notifications might go out later than May 25 since the application deadline was extended? Either way, WE'RE SO CLOSE!!!
  20. Samuel Merritt Fall 2018 ABSN Program

    I could be wrong, but so far it seems like the only people who have received the faculty review email are those who still had any main pre-reqs in

    ER would be so exciting and interesting! When I did an overnight observational shift in the ER once for my EMT class, the nurses were so impressive and awesome. I am not really sure what I want to...

    Thank you both, @goldenbsn and @Btenjamin! I appreciate the advice. Especially about quizlet, that's great to know--quizlet has saved me many times! I'm hoping despite the extremely accelerated nature...

    I just was able to register for the online SBCC classes today. I was enrolled in them through UCB extension and quickly regretted it. Can anyone speak to differences in difficulty between the two?...
  24. Samuel Merritt Fall 2018 ABSN Program

    I received the preliminary review message today, so they must have sent out another round of emails. Still nobody worry if you haven't gotten that message yet! I never got the "deadline has been...

    I haven't received an email about passing prelims either. I applied 3/17, and my transcripts and recommendations were received in the system about a couple of weeks or so before that so I don't think...
