  1. UMSON Fall 2014

    Motoapplicant I think you win for most stressful application cycle weekend! Ive crashed a few mopeds... and if you ride a moped you live by the tethgobyoam motto (to embarrassed to have gear on...
  2. UMSON Fall 2014

    I promised I would't check over the weekend but then someones status changed and I couldn't help myself! If we were a support group for not checking status' we'd be a damn mess
  3. UMSON Fall 2014

    itsmylife - don't fret. I'd have a perfect 4.0 if I hadn't done 2 years as a STEM major. Talk about tough courses taking a hit on your GPA! I have a 3.43GPA, an evenly distributed 89.7 (which I guess...
  4. UMSON Fall 2014

    After a whirlwind night in Baltimore, I finally checked my status, still committee ready! I am pumped to hear something next week. Accepted or wait-listed, I'll take either. Just hoping I'm not flat...
  5. UMSON Fall 2014

    Maybe I'll just bombard the office like, "hey would you let me in
  6. UMSON Fall 2014

    I'm so excited for you guys! I'm at the O's game and can't check!
  7. UMSON Fall 2014

    Last year the first calls went out November 1st or 2nd and people got calls throughout the rest of the month. I think one person got pulled off the wait list in December. Your status will most likely...
  8. UMSON Fall 2014

    Yeah, Husky and I can tell you - If you want it bad enough, you'll keep reapplying and improving your application. This is my 2nd time
  9. Effect of a grade of 'W'

    I think it's always better to withdraw than get a poor grade. If its the only one shouldn't be a prob especially for a humanities
  10. UMSON Fall 2014

    Just asked a current student - she said usually she has class 4 days a week either 8-3 or 8-5 and then once clinicals started it was 5 days a week. I think generally Community Colleges will have more...
  11. UMSON Fall 2014

    Congrats BHoltz! That must be invigorating to finally hear the voice say, "you're in". For those who don't know 2+2 students are those that do their pre reqs at Univeristy of Maryland Baltimore...
  12. Did you have to take Calculus as a Pre-Req?

    The only math classes that have been required for the programs I've applied to were Statistics and College Algebra. I was never very strong in math, however I did end up going onto pre-calc and I'm...
  13. UMSON Fall 2014

    Hey everyone, I just noticed the "accepted students" portion of UMSON's website has been updated. The greeting now reads something along the lines of "Congratulations on your acceptance to the Fall...
  14. UMSON Spring 2015

    Hey littlemango - Hoping I can help you out a bit here. I was a candidate for the Spring 2014 application cycle, and while I was wait-listed, it's my understanding all decisions are made and acted...
  15. I'm co-signing on everyone elses advice! Definitely talk to your program of choice about what classes you can and cannot take on line. Usually humanties courses are a-okay to take in the distance...
  16. What's your schedule like for Fall 2014?

    Hoping my fall schedule is my 1st semester of nursing school! I finished all my pre requisites last semester and have been taking classes to get my associates in bio (because why not). I'm out of...
  17. Have any of you....

    It was certainly a learning experience. My major suggestion - don't put all of your eggs in one basket. Apply to as many schools as possible! I made the mistake of only applying to one huge (and...
  18. Nursing Schools are so stupid...

    OP - I think everything that could be said has been said here. I personally understand your frustration, it's not a good feeling to have worked so hard to keep a high GPA only to find out you've been...
  19. UMSON Fall 2014

    If anything I'd think the bachelor's degree would be a bonus. Dedicating 4 years of your life to something, in my opinion, doesn't show indecisiveness at all! This school's application process is so...

    afowler77 - UMSON doesn't make the facebook group one of us has
  21. Covering tattoos and washing hands

    Oh, tattoos and nursing school! I'm a female with quite a few visable tattoos a full arm sleeve, full leg sleeve, and small tattoo behind my ear. Luckily I am able to cover them up with the tat2x...
  22. Have any of you....

    I took 50 credits in a year.... 15 credits for Spring Summer and Fall and 5 credits (2 classes) over winter break. *wipes forehead* I ended up waitlisted for spring and now I'm waiting around to hear...
  23. Pre-Nursing advice.

    Something to consider - GPA is only worth as much as the school you've attended. a 4.0 at a community college isn't the same as a 4.0 at an ivy league school, you know what I mean? That being said,...

    Also, Protip to you beautiful ladies with your faces as your profile pic: Change your picture so it's something anonymous and remove all personal details from your profile page. A moderator in another...
  25. UMSON Fall 2014

    My suggestion - don't make a facebook group until some people have been accepted. I know it's fun to start communicating, but that would suck if one of us makes the group, gets to know everyone and...
