Hi everyone!
So, the applications are due today (September 1st) for summer admission to ABSN program at Samuel Merritt. How does everyone feel about their application??
What campus did you apply to?
Also, does anyone still need to take CPR/BLS and Bloodborne pathogens? Is there a company that does all in 1? It almost seems like you can do it online but I don't see how this can be true. Also, I was told that it has to be through the American Red Cross or American Red Cross certified.
I still have not been accepted, but this is the class I am taking this weekend for CPR for healthcare professionals. Check it out: Bay Area ACLS, CPR Classes and CPR Training - Welcome to Heart Start CPR
So which one are you taking exactly? Are just doing CPR this weekend? Does BLS include CPR? Are you taking the ACLS one? And what the deal with bloodborne pathogen? Does first aid include that? I don't want to take the wrong class. Any info from anyone would awesome. Sorry for so many questions..
i am taking this one: aha basic life support (bls) for healthcare providers, this also includes cpr. i don't know anything about the bloodborne pathogen. the email that the "director" sent out to wait-list people (like myself), said to prepare in case we get in by taking "complete an appropriate cpr at the healthcare provider level, see the american heart association" so, this class would be fulfilling that requirement.
I would have gone to the open house for the April cohort today but they informed me of it too last minute and I already had plans and was out of state =(. I don't like their lack of organization. I knew about the mandatory orientations but I'm bummed that they had to add in an open house last minute so I feel like I missed out.

I just checked SMU website and it says that the tuition is $60,499/annually. pnlu007, where did you get 63K number from?
