Samuel Merritt or Merritt College?

Published

I am currently a student at Holy Names University and I was thinking of applying to merritt college for their ADN program. I am not sure if I want to stay at HNU because I have to repeat two science course because I got C's and they require a B- to pass. If anybody has some advance on whether I chould get my BSN or get my ADN PLEASE reply!

Thanks

Im not for certain but i think Merritt College uses a lottery system so its really hard to get in? im not sure though.

Hi! I'm just wondering if you could tell me what the requirements are to get into Holy Names for the nursing program. I know you do 2 years there before you get into SM, but do I need to have taken any specific courses before?

Thanks!

Specializes in PACU.

Hi,

I've heard things about Holy Names program through a former student so I decided not to apply there. My first choice was St. Mary's but they stopped taking transfer students into their nursing program. So I ended up checking out Mills College in Oakland and transferred there and have loved it since! You should look into Mills program. You can transfer in as a sophomore and do complete a year at Mills and your off to SMU. I will be transferring to SMU this fall so if you have more questions, email me. I would be happy to help. [email protected]

Basic requirements: Intro to Bio, Intro to chem, Freshmen english, should be completed prior to transferring.

You can complete only 2 of the four major science classes: Anatomy, physio, organic/biochem, micro before transferring to Mills.

Great! but I only have 1 more semester left at Holy Names and I already passed the TEAS test. SO I will be at SMC in January 2011. Hope to see you there! Good Luck!
