*Received a degree from Sac State already, Cum Laude

Victory925,

Thank you for the fiy :-)

And Hurlyegrly,

Thank you for the positive encouragement! I am 8th on the waitlist for the ELMSN CM and I automatically assumed that because I was 8th, I had pretty much little to no chance. Where did u start on the waitlist?

Hi!!

I am a recent acceptance to the accelerated program and had some questions. I am not sure how to PM- but could I get an email address or phone number to reach you at for some questions? Maybe you could PM me and I can respond. Thanks!!

Calinurse2011 I have a ton of questions too...Glad that I am not the only one!

Hi Hurlyegrly, Thanks for ur encouragement, I am waitlisted too but if u don't mind can u please let me know were u really low on the waiting list or u were among top 10? because sm waitlisted 60 candidates, i am just curious like how unpredictable there waitlist is?

Hi Hurleygrly,

Could you pm me with your email address so I can ask you some questions about the sacramento program, if you don't mind? I am wondering what your experience was like at SMU. Thanks =)

I was waitlisted at 3, and at the point I had heard that the year before they ended up taking about 8 from the waitlist. I would gather it would very lots year to year especially with all the ppl posting that they applied to both the ABSN and ELMNS program.

Hi! For some reason I guess I haven't reached my 15 posts to pm you back. Could you just send me a message back letting me know your overall honest impression of the program? Also, are you currently employed? I really appreciate it :)

I would like your feedback too Hurleygrly...Any info would be appreciated.

still waiting to hear from san mateo.......:bugeyes:

Hopefully Friday, I got my fingers crossed! Good luck to all of you that are waiting :)

Did anyone else get that scholarship email from SMU?

Two more days..hopefully..

I got that scholarship email today as well but I don't know if it means anything.. so the wait continues. Hope we hear back from SMU this Friday! :)
