I just sent the hardest email of my life! Declining SMU ?. For those on the waitlist I hope you hear good news. For those who didn't make it this year, do not give up on your dreams.

They will be calling over the next couple days. Also keep in mind not everyone will accept seats. Don't give up hope!

I just received a phone call. I got accepted!

Here goes the facebook. https://m.facebook.com/groups/2879441982262169/

I'm not sure just yet. I'm down in Fresno CA. Being that the class size is very small, I for sure want to be able to connect with you all. You guys/gals are now family! We will be with each other for the next 3 years. Has anybody started a Facebook Group?

You made it!! I'm so happy we get to be classmates !! whooohoooo

Yes, I got a call around noon! So excited, I even asked if she was joking ? Anybody else ?

This wait is brutal ?. I had a current SMU student ask a student who was on the interview pannel who said decisions will be made by April 1st. So everybody is saying and hearing different things. Answers will come eventually. Even UC Davis will finalize answers by this Friday. ?

I did notice that ? Caught me off guard at first. Maybe they will use it for future interview preparations? I'm very excited they will be making decisions by next week. Do you all prefer in person or online interviews?

Hello everybody, I just finished my interview, it ran for about 20 min. Consisted of a panel of about 7-8 people. Questions are mixed EI, situational/clinical. Again this program wants to know about you! Time for questions at the end. You will be notified of decision on March 14 by 0800! Per faculty only 15 students this round ?. Good Luck.

The interview was great. This faculty truly makes you feel comfortable and at ease. The current SRNA's are very friendly as well. The process felt like interacting with a big family. Also I asked SRNA's (forgot to ask faculty) they said it's usually quick first week of March, by phone call. Good Luck to everyone! Don't stress just be yourself and have fun ❤️

I emailed Sandra, she mentioned the admissions committee is meeting this week to discuss who will be admitted. She said end of the month if not sooner?.

One of the current students mentioned he found out around Thanksgivng. Last years thread for this school got answers beginning of November.

Interviews are happening ! Let's weigh in. 1. Thoughts on the interview, how did you feel overall? 2. Critical care exam, how was it? No details please, don't want to get us kicked out before we get in ?

That's a valid concern. It's something that I think about as well. I believe everything will work out just fine. During the info session they mentioned the potential clinical places we will be. It had a decent number of locations.
