That's good you got an email! I hope I get one soon. Sac is my first choice campus though so maybe that's why I didn't receive yet.

Yea, my guess is they're either doing it by campus or when the application was submitted. I submitted mine rather close to the deadline though LOL so maybe they're going in reverse chronological order? Either way I'm sure we will all be getting more updates soon!!

Hey guys, I had applied and got accepted for the ABSN Summer cohort in Oakland at SMU but still would need to finish two classes over the Summer. I was offered direct entry to the Fall at their Fresno campus. I honestly don't know what to think since I would have to relocate to Fresno. I was wondering if anyone accepted into the Fresno campus this Fall?

I got a notification because I originally wanted to apply for fall but missed the deadline. I started the application like halfway and didn't submit. Here's the email for everyone that wants to know:

I wonder if the application being extended will also extend the time that we hear back about decisions...

Is anyone applying for Oakland? Does anyone knows when Oakland campus starts?
