Samuel Merritt University ABSN Fall 2017

Published

Hello all! I am new to Allnurses and I recently decided to change my academic career path from biomedical engineering to nursing. I am (hopefully) going to graduate from San Jose State University in May 2017. I was wondering if anyone has applied/ got accepted to Samuel Merritt's Accelerated BSN program? I was wondering if it's a hard school to get into? I am hoping to apply for Fall 2017. My engineering GPA is not that great but I already took the TEAS and did pretty well on that; I also need to complete Micro, A&P, Nutrition, and a couple other nursing pre-reqs.

I wasn't able to find the Sacramento ABSN Facebook page. Am I missing something? Help, please!

Hi Shelgym, the group is named "SMU Sacramento ABSN Fall 2017" If that doesn't work I can try adding you by your name or email if you send it to me.

Hi all! Still waiting to hear back regarding admission for Sacramento Fall 2017. For those who have heard back, are you receiving an acceptance email in the morning? Trying to be very patient but can't help but check my email every hour :/

I received mine around 8am on 6/12. It doesn't seem that anyone on here has received an admissions letter since the 12th. At least from what people are posting. It's odd that they are making people wait so long :/

Hi Emcryan, I have been waiting too. I think there are a few more people on here who haven't heard. As far as the timing, I checked the last cohort and some people got an acceptance email around 10am and some even heard in the afternoon. But most people say that they hear at 8am, regarding the acceptance.

@Roosky15 I was told early this month that we would know by the end of June but perhaps they have extended the admission process through early July. Fingers crossed!!

Yeah, I was told the same thing. We have a few more days left in June. Maybe we hear this week. I think the Sac orientation is on 4th August, if I'm not mistaken. So they should let us know at least a month prior to that.

Still no word on my end either!

I haven't heard anything. Has anyone tried contacting them? The first person heard on May 25th. No idea what's going on. I emailed Derric a few days ago, and all he said was to be patient as the decisions are still being made. Let's hope we hear soon.

I haven't tried to contact them again since everyone who has tried receives the same response. I feel like my life is on hold until we hear back, and I'm sure you feel the same way... although I'm trying to be productive.
