Samuel Merritt University ABSN / ELMSN Spring 2014

[mrkim]

I am a prospective student for Samuel Merritt University for the cohort starting in Spring 2014. Campus of choice is San Mateo. I am considering the ELMSN-NP program as well since the prereqs are identical.

1. I was seeking information on TEAS test experience. What is the cut off for this test to get in? I have to take this test within the next few weeks in order to make the July 1st cutoff application. (I wanted to take this test after I finished my prereqs which will be completed by Sept 14th) Currently I am finishing up A&P I lecture/lab and Nutrition courses within the next 2 weeks, also currently taking Microbiology lecture/lab which will be complete by Aug 24th and signed up for A&P II lecture lab, Pathophysiology, and Pharmacology courses starting at the end of June and ending Sept 14th 2014 to make me 100% complete. I am currently making an A in all the courses attempting now. I have an undergrad gpa of 3.1 and science gpa of 3.5

I am currently on the east coast and have been serving in the military for 6 years. I lived in Orange County prior to joining for 6 months and have visited California numerous times and loved every second of it so I know this is where I want to end up, hence is why I am applying for programs out there.

I also wanted to know about anyones experience in previous cohorts at any of the campuses for both ABSN and ELMSN programs.

If anyone else is applying for Spring 2014 please respond to this thread as well that way we can get to know each other somewhat and give a chance to those that get accepted to start networking. Wish everyone the best of luck!!

Does anyone know how many applicants they have for spring ELMSN-NP??

Hey mknp2017,

I received emails that they are sending my application for faculty review, so you should be getting something soon. I would even check your junk mail filter, just in case.

Good luck!

Has anyone else heard anything?

Does anyone mind if we separate the Absn and Elmsn thread?

Hey there, applying for summer ABSN... For those who didn't complete pathophys/pharm yet, what did you put as the dates in the app? I won't be taking the classes unless I have to (meaning if I get into other programs that don't require it, I won't take it)

[AspiringNP2017]

Congrats! That's great news. I haven't heard anything yet. May I ask when did you receive the email?

[knnguyen66]

AspiringNP2017 : i got the email on the 26th of August

Hey guys, I applied for the absn program, i got overall 82% on teas but my reading was 69 percent, does that mean I don't have a shot? Do you think they will focus on other aspects?
