Samuel Merritt - Oakland, Fall 2011 ELMSN-FNP

Published

Hi all,

Applications are due just around the corner, and I was just wondering if anyone else has started the application process yet.

It would be good to hear back from others who are going through the same process!

Hi Everyone,

I have an interview with Samuel Merritt this Saturday and was wondering if anyone could give me an advice on how I should prepare for the interview. I heard from someone who went to their interview last year that they asked very difficult questions... Can anyone give me some insights on what type of questions I should expect at the interview?

Thank you!!

Hi everyone,

I applied for this term as well and have not heard anything, either. I'm feeling a little discouraged since people have already been asked to interview, but I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for the best. I emailed Karena a couple of times to check the status of my application (to make sure they received everything) but have not heard anything. I'm definitely calling tomorrow.

Good luck everyone!

Hi again,

I am just curious, is anyone going to 11am interview this Saturday?

Hi Genkianna,

I am! I am nervous about what they're gonna ask...

Hi again,

I am just curious, is anyone going to 11am interview this Saturday?

I just got a call for this saturday! Im SO SO excited but kind of freaking out because its such short notice and i am NOT good with interviews. She said I could have either slot so think i will go with the 11 am. Anyone have any info about what types of questions they ask? Attire?? thanks so much!!

There are some hints further back in this thread somewhere, but I don't think anyone who has interviewed already will reveal anything specifically; this would be rather unfair (and possibly akin to shooting themselves in the foot).

What I can tell you is the interview won't be as bad as you think it will be. :dancgrp:

Awesome Mayu91!

I am excited but nervous... I wonder what is the best way to prepare for the interview... I am looking forward to meeting you this Saturday :)

Hey Gohs,

I was just wondering when you turned in your application and what the completed date was on NursingCAS. I haven't received any contact from SMU, and my application was completed about January 25, so I'm getting a little nervous.

Thanks!

Hi,

I would also be interested to know when the complete date was on the people getting interviews this Saturday. I still haven't received anything from SMU saying they have my application and it's under review. I did, however, get an email about other programs to apply to through SMU so I'm guessing they have it. My complete date for everything on NursingCAS was Jan. 15th.

I emailed SMU a while ago to confirm if they received my TEAS scores as I sent them back in December. That was before I submitted the application so I was worried that the scores would get misplaced. But, alas, no response.

I believe I was told that applicants could expect to wait 6 to 8 weeks after submitting their application to hear anything. If that is true, it hasn't been completely 8 weeks yet...so maybe there is hope.

Take care

I submitted my app on January 14th and shows completed on NursingCAS on Jan 25th. I hadnt received any contact until yesterday...

I'm feeling a little bit frustrated as I have not heard anything back yet, either. I have emailed (FOUR times), called twice, and left one message. No response. I realize there is a high volume of applicants (and I probably shouldn't compare too much) but other schools have been very prompt in responding back, even if it was a one liner answer back. Maybe it's just the anxiety that's building up, but it's making me grumpy. =(

Oh well. Hopefully for those of us who haven't heard anything, doesn't mean it's bad news... just means we have to wait a little bit longer...

Anyone from today heard anything?
