Hi Everyone! I know this is a bit early but I will be applying to SMU for the ABSN program of Summer 2014 (Oakland Campus). I am currently finishing my Bachelor's degree in health science at CSUEB right now and I will be done in the fall. I just wanted to start a discussion on this topic and get to know some people who are applying to the program for summer 2014. Let's get to know each other, share our stats, etc.
Here are my estimated stats that they look at:
Last 60 units GPA: 3.5
Pre req GPA: 3.4
Teas: 83 but I am re taking it in a couple of weeks
Experience: I am a CNA and Med tech currently. I volunteer at John Muir hospital and at American Red Cross.
I hope to hear from some prospective applicants soon!
64 spots on the wait list. I can't imagine they have a wait list that long for each campus and it says "wait list for the ABSN summer 2014 class." I am thinking it might be for all 3 cohorts. If so, it should be more fluid right??
It seems crazy that the wait list would be that long for Oakland, but from reading other threads it sounds like each cohort has its own wait list. But then, like you said, the email did say "wait list for the ABSN summer 2014 class" ... kind of confusing.
Question for Oakland cohort: It seems like everyone that posted today about emails was wait listed. Did anyone receive an acceptance email for Oakland?
Got my email at 0800 this morning. I'm in at Oakland.
I cannot explain the relief I'm feeling. I can scratch off all those other programs from the list, all the other pre-reqs and now just focus on an actual program.
Best of luck to everyone.
Edited:
Grades: I got a B in statistics (booo), everything else was an A
TEAS: 89
Work experience: EMT Basic with 3,000+ hours as an ER tech
