I actually just received my Okta email this afternoon for Sacramento.  I never got a preliminary email from them, but Sac was my only choice.  I'm sure they're releasing them in waves, especially with the extended deadline.  Good luck to everyone still waiting!

Congratulations! 🎊 May I ask you if all of your prerequisites were completed when you applied or are you still taking some Courses? And did you attend the Nursing Success Seminar? 
Thank you and congratulations again! 🎊

Thanks!  I still had a few prerequisites in progress when I turned in my application. These courses completed in May, so I was able to update my application with grades and submit the updated transcripts.  I did not attend the nursing success seminar.

Congratulations!! 🙂 

You have to login into your mySMU account to submit your letter of intent.  You access it via Okta portal. I had to call SMU's IT service desk to gain access. Hope this helps!!

Does anyone happen to know the number of applicants they accept for each campus?

 "Our ability to offer you financial aid in the form of federal student loans will be restricted to limits put in place by the federal government for second bachelor's degree programs. This means that the majority of funding for the ABSN program will need to be covered by you through private sources. In most cases, this means securing a loan through a private lender."

 

For those people need a student loan, can I ask how you guys find the "private lender"?  I'm so confused about that.
