Was looking around and couldn't find a thread for this.

Has anyone else applied to this program & which campus did you pick for first choice?

Would love to hear back from fellow applicants :)

Congrats to all of you!! I did not receive this call, but have not received a rejection either...... weird!!! I have an application in for Spring as well, so perhaps I will see some of you then!

StaceyMarie, I'm in the same boat as you! I e-mailed to check when we are supposed to hear back and the person in admissions said they'll send out decisions by the 1st or 2nd week of Nov.

@AmesRT6510..... that seems like an eternity!!!! A few weeks ago I was told it would be the week of the 22nd.... BUMMER! I'm going to be the crazy lady at the mailbox from now till then!

I received an email to see if I wanted to be considered for the Fall admission at San Mateo. I am so torn because I am #4 on the waitlist at Sacramento (my first choice since I live here) but the possibility of getting in sooner is great too. Of course, being on the waitlist is not a guarantee to get in. I am just so concerned about the drive. It is at least 2 1/2 hours each way (no traffic) and moving is not an option (husband’s job). Anyone else commuting from Sacramento?

Just got the phone call that I got into Fall!

I just got the call!! So excited but freaked out because the offer is for fall only and can't be deferred. I thought I read earlier that someone deferred for spring.... For those that got in last minute for fall- what have you been doing to get ready?

hi rosiebee15. I decided to wait for Sacramento. The 2 1/2 hour drive each way would be too much, especially with such an intensive program. I don't know any dates for San Mateo, it was not included in the email sent to me.

Rosiebee, orientation is october 30 and classes start november 5 ( i think, ill double check the email they sent me).JeninCa, that would've been a tough commute. I have an hour commute to campus from my house (but i'm going to stay at family houses during the school week).

@gobears0305
