Congratulations to everyone who got acceptances! When do you need to accept or decline the offer? I’m waitlisted so I want to get an idea of when I should expect potential spots opening up.

July 9th.

Phew congrats to all those hearing back from the Sac campus! I applied for both campuses but put San Mateo as my top choice. Has anyone in a similar situation heard back?

Hi there, I just opened my acceptance letter for the Sacramento campus as well. I am so looking forward to meeting everyone! ?

I am waitlisted (#24). GPA 3.91 94% HESI 3 excellent LOR but no experience. I'm assuming 24 of the 40 people aren't going decline. ☹️

For San Mateo folks, I just got another one of these emails:

"This is a follow-up update regarding decisions for the Fall 21 Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ABSN) program.

We still anticipate to receive decisions from the faculty by late June/early July. We will notify you right away once your decision is received.

While waiting for the decision for Fall 21 ABSN cohort, you are encouraged to prepare and submit your application to the Spring 22 ABSN cohort by the July 1 deadline.

Thank you for your patience during this process.

Sincerely,

Office of Admission

Samuel Merritt University"

I just got that same email ?

I got the official wait list email and I am 1/35 for Sacramento. Barely made the cut but still in the running! Compared to those accepted, I think it’s because I have only started working at an assisted living facility in November and only had four months under my belt when I applied in April.

Has anyone from the San Mateo campus heard anything (denials, acceptances, waitlist)? I’m so anxious and am checking the portal daily but it still says being reviewed.

congrats to the Sacramento folks who got in! I'm so sorry for those of you in San Mateo, that email would drive me crazy. I really hope you hear soon.

For anyone applying again, Dyllen Nellis is a college essay editor who really makes you think outside the box! She’s literally the best. She has tons of Youtube videos and a website with an editing service and even “rush” orders where you receive your essays back in a day.

Nothing other than the "we'll let you know when we know" email unfortunately. I suspect we won't hear back until next Friday 7/2 now. Like the decisions today, it seems like most schools release decisions on Fridays. I haven't signed up for the Admitted students portal because I'm too nervous to do that without the official invite tho. Hope all the San Mateo folks get a breather this weekend despite the anxiety!
