    The first time I applied to SMU, I got waitlisted into the ELMSN program and at that point, I still had some classes in progress. They told me that they tally up everyone's points for a total score...

    The email informed applicants the opportunity of applying to the RWJ Scholarship IF they are accepted to the ABSN Spring 2011 program. So in reality, no one knows if anyone got acccepted to the San...

    I think what the person meant was that there is another cycle we could apply to that is due Sept. 1 for the SMU Oakland, San Mateo, and SF campuses. Back then, if we are waitlisted for this cycle,...

    yea I got waitlisted for the ELMSN program Competition is getting tough. There are so many highly qualified people but they just don't have enough room for everyone. Hope we get in this time...

    BandAid716 replied to Victory925's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    nursingCAS told me that unless the course title has the world "nursing" in it, the safest bet is to just list it as a regular class. I turned my application in a few weeks ago, and they were really...

    Do you know if we can submit our application even if we are still waiting on the letter of recs?

    I called them and emailed them for clarification. They want UNITS only -- no multiplying by 4

    My university transcript uses units only....but then I also took a few classes at community colleges which lists both units and credit hours...I don't know what to put down anymore

    BandAid716 replied to Victory925's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hmm, that is weird. It makes more sense to put simply the number of units for the course (ie. 3 unit class) rather than the credit hours. However, if that's the case, why do they give us a range to...

    BandAid716 replied to Victory925's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So does that mean for a 3 unit course, we put 3 units rather than 12 credit hours? My transcript only indicates the number of units for the course, and the amount of credit hours received (ie. if it...

    BandAid716 replied to Victory925's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, I was really confused about that first as well. On the nursingCAS instructions, it says "1 credit = 4 semester hours." A credit is the same as unit, so if it is a 3 unit course, it is 3 x 4 = 12...
