In my experience, all new students feel that way, or at least the majority do. And I worry about those who don't as they might be just a bit too overconfident to do the real work and to really invest...
Neehr Perfect is only being used at the Shady Grove campus - it is a pilot program on electronic healthcare records which may be implemented on the main campus after testing is completed. The first...
I wish I could help but financial aid is a total mystery for me. There is a UMB Financial Aid office (there is not a separate one for the School of Nursing) and there is also financial aid assistance...
If you had chickenpox, your word on the approximate date is sufficient. You only need the first two Hep B vaccinations before school starts. Just get the third when it is due and you will be
You have a legitimate reason for taking adderall. While it will show up on your test, you will be asked to provide documentation to your clinical sites that you are taking a legal (for you)...
You should not be doing the background check and drug test now. You will be given instructions on how to do that (and there is only one approved vendor) at Orientation. All you need to do now is send...
You are guaranteed a seat in all your required courses and there is only one section of each so there is not much choice there an no worries about getting shut out. You may not get your preferred lab...

The UMB admissions committees DO take into account that many students who start college are neither ready nor serious about it. What they look for is demonstrated ability in the courses that really...
There is always a chance. Your entire application material will be scrutinized. It is not uncommon for a student to have a less than excellent start to their academic careers. Your recent work,...
It is an odd system. Most students are used to just going online and registering. Our system requires students to first submit the registration form, wait for it to be processed, then go online to...
I have not tracked how many wait list students have been accepted for the Baltimore campus but at least seven have been accepted for Shady Grove. Sadly, over the summer some accepted students will...
As to number one, I am afraid only someone in admissions can answer that. They will let you know when you submit your unofficial transcripts using the Unofficial Transcript Evaluation form on the...
The numbers do not matter. You really can't figure out your chances because you cannot know what your competition will be like. Neither can we. I can tell you that we usually get 3 to 4...
Any books listed as Required (as opposed to Recommended) you will need to buy. You will recieve a letter from the N315 couse coordinator confirming that later this summer. You might try to contact...
Excellent! Thanks. Our faculty and staff not only have the opportunity to get to know the students, it's part of our culture to WANT to know them. You would not believe how much they pester me for...
