UMB Spring 2012

I wouldn't worry about the "requirements outstanding" status for now. It took a few days for them to put my information in the computer… But I would call the office and make sure they have it. I'm sure they will be inundated with calls next week- but it wouldn't hurt to check to make sure they have received all of your paperwork. I called a few times to make sure they had received transcripts and they were always pleasant as can be on the phone...

I actually do have an AP credit that applies and had my scores sent a while ago, but I called and verified that they had received it. It just hasn't reflected that online yet. My TEAS score isn't updated either. I'm betting they're swamped.

Hi Folks! I am a current CNL student at the Baltimore campus. If anyone has questions about this program, please do not hesitate to ask! Best of luck to you all during the admissions process!

Thanks, sewnew! I recognize your name from stalking last year's thread! I'm sure we'll have plenty of questions for you in the coming months...

Although it seems like there aren't as many of us on here as there were last year or the year before...

thanks sewnew!

AprilAnney: I know! I was thinking the same thing about there not being as many people following threads for this admission period. may be a good thing for us :) and my application still does not have my TEAS scores applied yet as of this morning I guess I will have to call about it again..

Call them again just to check- but it's possible they have it. They were off Friday-Monday for the holiday...

Hi everyone! I applied for Spring 2012 at Shady Grove. My status currently says "Committee Ready", I wonder when the decisions will be made! Did anyone else have their status changed to "Committee Ready"?

marec22, I applied to Spring 2012 at Baltimore and my application status still says complete ready for review. Waiting is torture! Good luck to all candidates!

My application has said "committee ready" for probably a month now, since I turned everything in by the end of July. Waiting IS torture! I'll post if I ever get a different decision posted. (the status should say "complete and ready for review"; the decision says "committee ready")

Does anyone know how financial aid will work? I qualify for a few grants and get a few state scholarships at AACC- I was wondering if those grants will transfer over? I've already added UMB to my FAFSA. Will financial aid be determined before we need to make decisions (assuming that I get in…)?

Where's GreyLady from the other UMB posts? Wonder if she would know...

I'm freaking out!! Tara from UMSON called and left me a message to call her. I hope everything is okay with my application. I tried to call her back and had to leave her a message. Has anyone else received a phone call from UM?

AprilAnney · Sep 12, 2011

I wouldn't panic if I were you. If she is calling you in regards to something about your application, it's obviously something that can be fixed and she's trying to touch base with you to get it straightened out.

I haven't gotten a phone call from them- but I received a few emails before Sept. 1 letting me know what information of mine they had received and what was still missing (I got a few emails from Tara Zeeler and another person in the office). I got another email after everything was submitted telling me there was a bit of a formatting snafu with my resume. After everything was complete and good, I got another email telling me my stuff was ready to go. I'm honestly very surprised at how communicative they are. Most nursing schools just say "here's our requirements, submit your application, you'll hear from us in a few months". I was pleasantly pleased with their quickness to respond to questions and their friendliness throughout the whole process!
