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!
I spoke with the administrative assistant for the Nursing department bc I was trying to figure out the timings and she said that they hadn't released the dates as yet.
We should look at the orientation date page for information.
@fhussein999 Thanks for the info. I saw on their website that it said orientation for Oakland cohort would be May 7th to May 9th but I guess that's wrong.

Also, for those of you who paid their deposit did you receive a confirmation email? I haven't received anything.
Yes exactly those dates are apparently not correct per the nursing admin asst. I did submit my deposit and actually hadn't even received a confirmation or anything.
I have signed up for a CPR class and am getting all my health stuff together. It feels like they is much more I need to do, but not sure where to go.
I created a group on Facebook for our Cohort, if you'd like to join and we can discuss further as I can't PM people on here...
Also, for those of you who paid their deposit did you receive a confirmation email? I haven't received anything.
I was wondering the same thing. I paid my $350 deposit at SMURF and haven't heard anything.
I'm also working on the student health record and the other items outlined in the admissions email.
Can anyone verify that the 2013-2014 FAFSA that I submitted last year will apply to this coming school year? I cannot submit the 2014-2015 one yet because of incomplete taxes.
thx
edited: For immunization records.... I have had to track down immunization records for some jobs and school and I was able to get a record from my high school. They (fortunately) still had a sheet that was filled out when I was a freshman and had my vaccination records for a lot of what is required in the health record. My dad was able to go there and request it and they produced it pretty easily.
