Fingers are crossed

Hey All! I applied to SMU for the 2018 Fall BSN program. Just wanted to create this to see if anyone's gotten a confirmation email or (possibly) even heard back! Plus, I figured this could serve as a good outlet for my checking my email incessantly!

I'm down! I'll PM you my info

Niceeeee! Gonna have to reactivate ye old Facebook...here's hoping I can remember the password.

Sadly this brings me some comfort haha, hopefully they respond to me soon so I don't have to magic 49k out of the air hahaha

Has anyone received their financial aid package yet? I looked on SMURF and it looks like room and board has been accounted for, but no tuition etc. I emailed financial aid but haven't heard back yet.

Hey! So I was also accepted and my stats are: Prerequisite GPA:3.8 Cumulative GPA: 3.3 HESI: 97% I've worked in the health field for about three years which I think helped my cumulative GPA a lot. I speak intermediate Spanish, and beginners French an...

Me too! Saw it nearly two hours late cause it went to my spam- oops! I'm so excited to meet all of you!!!

Ah okay I guess that makes sense, thanks for the info! I completely forgot to go on there today

Blahhhh so nerve wracking, I wish they would just send them all at once! Did they mention if only the priority students had received their admissions acceptance or was it just kind of a "some have some haven't"?

Four dogs here and also mildly obsessed with my succulents haha- congrats on acceptance!!! I was getting worried that I hadn't heard anything yet but I'm hoping they sent out the priority students first and will get to the first timers next? Oh the a...

Ah!!! Congrats!!!! Nope nothing yet, what time did you get it?

Was there a live chat today? I didn't get an email for one- Did anyone go on it?

When I saw the preview for the message in my inbox I read "decisions delayed" as "denied"- nearly gave myself a heart attack. With that said, still so disappointed- was so anxiety ridden all day but now we have to wait two more weeks?? Blah

Me too! My boyfriend kept saying "well those are great odds!" But I just kept being a little pessimistic haha. So so nervous!

Okay so I just went on the chat and people had some good questions that were answered: everyone will hear by March 15th (denial, waitlist and admitted). And also, about 120 people applied for Fall with 64 seats available. Three more days!!

You could become a CCT nurse and still work on a rig.

Ugh how frustrating! Was the school super communicative during the process, letting you know when you moved up etc?

None! I did sign onto the Monday chat though, and someone asked if the decisions would still be out by the 15th. According to the moderator they still expected them out by the 15th- 8 more days ahhhhh!

I've been browsing them using the Scholly app, no real luck as of yet. I've done my FAFSA; however, I'm a little worried that applying for the scholarships might get my hopes up too much haha. How about you?

I thought there was a Pearson "trick" where you attempt to sign up for the test again. If it doesn't allow you to sign up, you've passed. (That's what my nurse friends have said anyway)

You are definitely NOT too old! As far as ADN vs BSN, many of my friends got their Associates and then took online courses to get their BSN.

Hey! I applied to the Fall 2018 program too! And no kidding about the anxiety, I keep checking my email non-stop! Have you applied to SMU before or did you apply to other schools as well?

Ahhh is it March 15th yet?! Come on time, speed up a bit!

So the book was great, I had that one and used it the most. The pocket prep was the only other thing I used.

Ahhh you're totally right- I remember there being some of those. But I checked and rechecked, and then made sure where they needed me to round. Some weren't too clear on whether to round to the hundredth or tenth on the multiple choice but the fill i...
