Spring 2017 Samuel Merritt ABSN

Published

Hi Everyone!

I hope this is not too soon! I am applying to the SM ABSN Sacramento program for Spring 2017. I wanted to connect with some of the other people applying for this same cohort:) Just wondering how everyone's applications are going and if anyone had anything to add to the group. I haven't submitted yet but will probably do so tomorrow after I finish my last essay response. Please tell me I am not the only one doing this totally last minute!

Feel free to share stats and updates as the process moves along. I am looking forward to hearing from some of you - and hopefully getting to know you in January (if things go according to plan:)

Good luck to everyone!

Does anyone know if both orientation days are mandatory? San Mateo's says December 8-9. I have a work function on the 9th but of course I'll miss it if I have to for school! Just curious is anyone knows. Thanks!

Got an acceptance email this morning for the ABSN program but have already accepted a spot in the ELMSN FNP cohort, so good news for anyone who hasn't heard back or is on the wait list! Good luck everyone!

Yes they are both mandatory...

"All Onsite Orientations are mandatory. The day will include continental breakfast and lunch provided by SMU, in general plan to be there until 4:30 pm. [...] If the grid has multiple dates for Orientation, then you must be present on each day."

See you there!

I actually got an email today regarding the Sac orientation. They changed it from 2 days to 1: Friday, Dec. 2, 9am - 4pm.

"On behalf of the SMU Student Services Department I would like say congratulations on joining the SMU Sacramento community in January! I am the Student Services Coordinator in Sacramento and am looking forward to welcoming you to campus for your New Student Orientation on Friday, December 2nd from 9am to 4pm. More information to follow but for now, please save the date. *Please note: Orientation was originally scheduled for 2 days but has been changed to one day.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Best,

Robyn Heise"

Hi everyone.. I am anxiously waiting for the verdict from Samuel Merritt San Mateo campus. Anyone here heard any news?? I know some already received acceptance letter. I have received an email in regards to the completion of my coursework of their prerequisites for the application..but that's about it. Oh how I hate the waiting game.

Anyone know any infomation? anyone on the waitlist?

hi madiams, when did you get an email about orientation? i didnt get one yet

I received the orientation e-mail on Friday. It looks like it's just Thursday, December 8!

"We are thrilled you will join our SF Peninsula community with the January-December 2017 ABSN cohort. Your new adventure begins soon, and it is the start of your transformation to become a highly skilled and compassionate health care provider.

We are excited to welcome you to your ABSN orientation Thursday, December 8 at our SF Peninsula campus."

Congratulations! I look forward to meeting everybody on December 2!

Yay! I'm so excited. Got that email Friday to. wonder what time we should be there...? I can't wait till we get to meet everyone! It's gonna be a heck of a year and I am really looking forward to meeting new friends to take this journey with!

I did not receive the orientation email for Sacramento.

I'm thinking because I got my acceptance letter on Tuesday, the 25th; later than most of you!

Do you think I should be concerned? I already submitted my letter of intent.

The letter I received has orientation from 9 am to 4 pm Friday, December 2 at the Sacramento campus. I hope this helps :)
