FutureRN59 18 Posts Dec 2, 2017 I submitted my application two weeks ago. Hoping for the best, especially since I don't have the best stats. Good luck!
FNPTOB2018 52 Posts Dec 2, 2017 Good luck to everyone! Do you guys mind sharing your stats? I can start it off! My last 60/90 units are at a 3.83. Hesi is above 80. I'm currently working in the ER as a medical scribe! Feel free to post! Lets keep each other updated!
FutureRN59 18 Posts Dec 2, 2017 My last 60 GPA is 3.7Science prereq GPA is 3.29 Overall HESI is 82I worked in an assisted living facility passing meds for a few months. Now I am working in a hospital laboratory and I have a lot of contact with nurses and physicians. Also, I participated in the nursing success seminar that Samuel Merritt offers every year.
TashaBS 32 Posts Dec 4, 2017 I submitted in the beginning of November! Now we start the waiting game í ½í¸© Did anyone apply to both programs?
FutureRN59 18 Posts Dec 5, 2017 I applied to both programs. Just in case I don't get in, I am going to retake microbiology in the spring to raise my science GPA.
TashaBS 32 Posts Dec 5, 2017 Well at least now you have two chances with applying to both programs! I also decided to apply to both last minute. I think the fact that you did the seminar will help too, especially if you were able to make some connections with the staff while there! Im anxious to just find out already! Lol

FutureRN59 18 Posts Dec 5, 2017 I would definitely recommend the nursing success seminar. It was a good experience. Did anyone have a letter of recommendation from a nurse?
