    Samuel Merritt University- FALL 2021 START

    Momo26 replied to cassidyj's topic in School Programs

    Does anyone know how many apps they got this cycle? I assumed it would be less than Spring b/c the testing requirement got reinstated. But it seems like they're still behind so I'm not sure LOL

    That is not possible. Everyone must receive an email whether they move on or not, whether they get accepted or not. If you don’t receive one by the date, email them.

    Where else have you guys applied? Is SMU your first choice?

    If you do not get anything by 2/15 which is a Monday, you could log onto the BSN webinar they hold on mondays from 12-1pm and ask what is going on. I have not received anything from them either, but because I dealt with them last cycle I am used to the chaos haha.

    I would not be surprised if this phase gets delayed like it did last cycle. They were very behind and not so good at communication. If you don’t get an email by that date there is a good chance they didn’t meet the deadline and will email the entire group a few days later explaining that it’s been delayed.

    Hey! So schools like USF and SMU take a holistic approach to admission. This means they look beyond GPA/stats. They weigh you as a person and what you would bring to the program. I noticed my stats were higher than quite a few of the people that got into SMU, yet I didn’t even get waitlisted. Unfortunately that’s just the way things go. I wouldn’t take it too personally. This being my 2nd round of applying I’ve learned it’s better not to compare myself to other people and to trust in the decisions. (Even if they’re not what you hope for) I wish you the best and hope you get off the list! Thank you sooo much! You got this girl! Everything really will work out in the end and you’ll end up where you’ll be the most successful and happiest 😃

    I guess we’ll see. They said they would get back to us by the 10th latest. And I’m sure people have been accepting or rejecting their offers before the deadline. It’s just kind of frustrating that they are not transparent with their communication

    It is but I don’t think they’ll be sticking to their normal timeline. Decisions for Spring got delayed an extra 3-4 weeks. If they have the same amount of apps they def won’t be on time. For fall they usually let people know in March, but I wouldn’t expect it until late April tbh.

    They were kind of all over the place with communication for Spring 2021. It seems like they got a lot of applicants for fall as well so I would not expect much from them when it comes to relaying info... LOL

    Yikes. Probably to discourage people from committing and then backing out. I think that’s the highest deposit for a program I’ve ever heard of LOL
  11. Momo26
    Is it refundable?

    That makes sense! Part of me is hoping because they reinstated the testing requirement there won’t be as many apps so there are better odds. I didn’t know that paid healthcare experience would be weighed so heavily. I guess we’ll see. I hope you get off the list for USF!

    I also got rejected from Samuel Merritt! I reapplied for fall 2021 but I’m confused on what my application seems to be missing. I tried to get feedback on it but was told they can’t give specifics and to just apply again. Who would have thought with over 200 hours of volunteer experience, 3.8 overall GPA, great LOR’s, and thoughtful responses to the statements that just wouldn’t be enough😅. I’m just super confused on where to go from here tbh. Is this your first cycle applying? I’m going on my third round just thinking how many more times do I have to apply to places before I get in😂

    It seems like it was a fancy way of them telling us we’re waitlisted LOL. Because it says our applications are still being considered, so it doesn’t make sense for it to be a rejection. I was thinking of reaching out to ask for clarification but I’m unsure of who to contact. I guess we should just wait and see until they update our status again.. I would have preferred them giving out a waitlist ranking or flat out saying we’re waitlisted but I’ll take what I can get😂

    Congratulations!! I am a bit confused on my status maybe you can help? I received an email that says “As students review their offers and make their decisions, we will continually assess the spaces available for the incoming class. While we were unable to make you an offer in this first round, I want to assure you that your application is still being given serious consideration, but we are on hold until we can confirm the spaces we have available in the class. Currently, our plan is to make additional offers of admission as space permits. I will provide another update on your application status no later than Thursday, December 10.” So does this mean I’m waitlisted?? They didn’t come out and directly say it so I’m not sure if I got rejected or not. If anyone got a rejection, do they flat out tell you? Or did you get a similar email?

    Make sure you are on the 2021 application. When you go to the sign in page (where it says welcome to nursingcas and asks for your username/password) go to the left hand side and there is a section of writing that reads "ATTENTION: If you need to apply to a program in the 2020-2021 application cycle, then click here to access that application." Most likely you are on the old application cycle, that is why you can't find it.
