Starting a new thread for the Spring 2011 SMU applicants for the Sacramento Campus and all others as well.
Post your stats, any other important information you might have heard about the applicants, questions, concerns, anything!!
My stats:
Already been in nursing school- Dropped OUT- UGH, why????? *I digress...
*Received a degree from Sac State already, Cum Laude
Science G.P.A.= 3.4
Overall G.P.A. = 3.5
Teas= 84.1
1 year of healthcare experience
1 year of nursing school experience
Multiple community involvement experiences- ERG's, Volunteer on Diversity teams, Church, internships, mentoring, tutoring
*Hoping that this may be the year because I'm going no where fast in my current job field and I want to return to a profession that I have a passion for and am good at!!
The email informed applicants the opportunity of applying to the RWJ Scholarship IF they are accepted to the ABSN Spring 2011 program. So in reality, no one knows if anyone got acccepted to the San Mateo ABSN yet.
Excerpt from the email:
"Samuel Merritt University is pleased to announce the availability of the 2011 Robert Wood Johnson Foundation New Careers in Nursing Scholarship for Incoming spring 2011 ABSN Students. Students who are accepted to the ABSN spring 2011 program and are interested in this scholarship program are encouraged to apply. Please wait for your acceptance notification from the Admission's office before applying to this scholarship opportunity."
Thank you for the info. Much appreciated! I am number 1 on the ABSN waitlist for SMU sac so if I get accepted, I will definitely have to check into it.
Good luck to all of you waiting for San Mateo...any day now!!! :-)
I just sent my letter to decline my spot for the ABSN. I am staying with the ELMSN and was reading this thread and noticed you're #1 on the waitlist, so hopefully this will free you up a spot. I just sent it Tuesday, so it may take a couple of days to go through. Good luck.....
How cool; that is super exciting. I hope I get a call soon! Congrats on being accepted to both programs! That is quite an accomplishment and you should be very proud of yourself! :yelclap:
Not yet... been staring at my phone all day. RING, DAMMIT, RING!
(PS- is anyone else having mad troubles posting to this site? The pages aren't loading... been trying on three computers, two diff inter net browsers.. argh).
Haven't heard yet either, it's driving me a little crazy. EB is out of the office today too... Probably getting a ton of calls from the SM folks waiting to get in.
I haven't heard anything either....the wait is driving me nuts and I'm tired of staring at my phone all day waiting for it to ring! I keep checking my email also but nothing yet! Hopefully we will hear something soon!
