Samuel Merritt ABSN Fall 2015

Published

Hi there!

I haven't seen any threads for those of us applying for Samuel Merritt's ABSN program for Fall 2015, so I thought I'd start one! Lets stick together and share some information along the way!

I'm a little bit nervous about my stats..

Previous Bachelor's degree in Health Science & Nutrition, Various university projects

Nursing GPA: 3.7

Overall GPA: 3.89

Volunteer at a hospital's Emergency Room, and oncology center

Pediatric & Adult CPR/First Aid Certified

Good luck to everyone!!

Ahhhh! So excited...I got in!! Congratulations to everyone that got in, and best of luck to those still waiting to hear back. I can't wait to meet you all.

Congratulations to everyone who has been accepted!! I haven't heard anything and it is making me really nervous. I hope they are not done with all the phone calls!

got a call for acceptance today for November...then later got a call with an offer to begin in June...literally in two weeks! Anyone else get this call? The only difference would be that the November clinicals were originally in SF and the June ones will be in the San Jose/San Mateo area.

Congrats to those who got accepted!

Unfortunately I got a denial email :(

Acceptees, can you please share your stats and healthcare experiences? Wanted to see my chances for the future terms. I thought I met all the requirements.

I got waitlisted! :( I'm pretty high on the list though so I am hoping that I can get moved up fairly quickly. Great job to everyone who got accepted!!

Ive accepted for June. So that will improve someone's chance on the November waitlist

Congratulations to all those who were accepted! I too was accepted and was offered June; however, I've decided to start with the November cohort. Excited! I tried looking for a Facebook group for our November 2015 start and didn't seem to find one. There is a SMU group that states "Fall 2015"; however, that group is graduating Fall 2015. The group I created is closed, but accepted students can request to join. In Facebook you can search "Samuel Merritt - ABSN San Mateo November Class of 2016" to find the group I created. Congratulations again and I look forward to meeting everyone in our cohort in the coming Fall!

hi! i can't find the closed group your created on facebook.

Thank you for creating one! :) I can't seem to find the Facebook group either though. I'm guessing its because its a closed group. Is there a way for you to send us a link?

Hi everyone!

I'm currently on the waitlist. Does anyone know how the waitlist works?

Sorry everyone - the "closed group" status stated that "anyone can find the group and see who's in it. Only members can see posts."

The link to the group is https://www.facebook.com/groups/331486303642467/

The group name is Samuel Merritt - ABSN San Mateo November Class of 2016

I realize the name is long - not by choice - was trying to follow previous cohort's naming conventions in an attempt to eliminate confusion. Let me know if you guys still can't find/add the group and I'll just change the group to open or something.

Thank you again and congrats!

Just got accepted!! I'm so excited to be a part of this cohort! Can't believe we will all be nurses by the end of next year!
