Hi, what was everyone’s stats? My friend is interested in applying next round

75 and under!

I need shoes for clinicals and they say it must be all white and non porous. Also, no clogs please! I want something decent looking haha

Also, I asked this in another thread. But why SMU? What have you heard about the program? for me, I wanted an ABSN program!

Hi, just curious! Why SMU? Also, what have you guys heard about the program? Thank you!

Omgosh wow! If everyone’s stats are like this I feel I would be competing against medical students while I’m in school! Haha

Congratulations! Do you guys think the Oakland campus is harder to get into?

Oh how come? If you don’t mind

So funny though, everyone I talk to online say tuition is crazy expensive and I should look somewhere else. But everyone I talk to in real life said the tuition isn’t too bad! does that happen to u

Good luck everyone! Just curious, why did everyone choose SMU? For me, it is close to home!

Ah, do you guys think the pandemic caused more people to apply for RN school or less? I heard about the Fauci Effect for MD's.

Ah thank you! Do you happen know if new nurses tend to get night shifts and have no choices? ETc

Ah yes, thats what my calculations are at right now! that 1k sounds crazy but I did hear salary is high. Im just afraid of not finding a job.... I cannot move T_T. How hard was it for your cousin to find one? I always wanted to be a nurse (you can see my posts back in from like 2013). I just decided to get my BS in something else health related that I thought I would like. But after working for few years I realized I want more hands-on patient care and to stab people. Ah, I'll get off my soap opera.

Oh yes, but what are your thoughts of how expensive it is? I'm just feeling a little iffy about the cost.

Anyways, what are everyones thoughts on cost of the program? It is quite $$$.

Wow those are rlly good! I’m surprised you didn’t get in ! What healthcare experience?

I would agree! I’m crossing my fingers for you! Lmk if you get in! what are your stats if you don’t mind?

I have heard if u make the top of waitlist you get automatic admission next cohort

Oh, what waitlist number are you? Ah I’m sorry ?

Did you get Any news? Maybe we will be classmates

Random question does anyone know how many people apply usually and accepted?

Nope!! But I applied during the cohort where one cohort got canceled. So it was rlly competitive! Yes! There’s a link somewhere in this thread.

I got in this time. But for my second app I only changed if the questions were different. I copied pasted some of my old PS in my new one.

Has everyone here been a CNA or something hands on? Worried it might set me behind in school. I have healthcare experience but not hands on care.

Noo April! Thanks!
