Samuel Merritt University ABSN Spring 2021

Published

Hello!

I didn't see a thread for the SMU absn Spring 2021 cohort so I just wanted to start one!

I'm currently in the process of applying right now and working on my personal statements!

Hope you are all staying safe during this crazy time!

I’m so over this -.- we are suppose to know in October not November. 

Pretty sure we all are LOL I know a lot of us need to make decisions regarding work and living situations. Finding out in November won't give us much time to plan. I was so excited last week when Sac got their notifications but now... IDK what to feel LOL 

It is so frustrating. I really hope we hear by next week (for ABSN). It is pretty unbelievable that I began this app last December and still have not heard.

They blocked off my cuss word AHAHAHAHA

Yeah im seriously not going to find a nanny in time for this but its 2020 and I expect nothing less haha 

Have you guys tried looking on the portal? Apparently the status changes on there first, before they send the email. So maybe if they send out emails on Monday, the status is updated right now? 

What I’ve gotten so far from my friend whose in the ABSN program right now - they are pretty behind! 
 

I also believe that if you’re accepted you shouldn’t expect much from SMU cause you may be disappointed more often then you’d like LOL. 

Also - on my portal 

 

I still don’t see anything about my application and I’ve looked both on my phone and laptop. So if y’all see anything, please let me know hahah.

That is crazy!! 
I wish they at least sent out an email saying not to expect this week instead of us constantly checking our email

Simple communication throughout the whole process from admissions would make the wait more bearable, and probably eliminate a lot of calls and emails to them. 

who knows...maybe we find out over the weekend! 

Anybody got an email from Samuel Merritt? It’s pretty much explaining why there’s a delay and that they’re currently working on it.
