Samuel Merritt University (SMU) ABSN Summer 2024

Published

Hi all! Wanted to start a discussion for those who applied for Summer 2024 cohorts at Samuel Merritt so we can support each other. I applied to the Oakland and San Mateo campuses. I'm also excited to hear back if I got in to the Nursing Success Seminar January 2024 program. 

Hey I'm about to start the ABSN in San Mateo for Summer 2025. I cureently work part-time at Kaiser .I'm just wondering what you guys weekly schedule looked like? Days you had to be in class, times, clinicals etc. Lowkey trying to tailor my work schedule to fit in with school. Does anyone think its actually possible? I would really appreciate some feedback ! Thank youuuu

It's possible and people have worked thruout the program but I wouldn't really recommend it, at least for the first 2 semesters. 

In the beginning you will have probably 1 full day, or 2 half days of lecture, and then one full day of lab. A little bit later on, it will probably be one full day of lecture, 2 full days of clinical (AM or PM), and then additional lab days occasionally. There is a lot of homework and studying to do on days off as for most of the program you have 1-2 big exams weekly
