UMSON Baltimore/Shady Grove BSN FALL 2019

Published

Hi All! I wanted to see who has applied for UMSON for the fall 2019 Semester. I have applied for the Baltimore campus. I am very nervous, as I retook two classes, so my current overall GPA of 3.75 will go down to a 3.3 as they factor that in. For an overall science GPA, mine is an 3.8. On the TEAS, I received a 73.3 overall, Having and 82 on the reading, and 87 on math. I also have experience at a nursing home that I currently work at now. Has any one else applied? Which campus? I have also heard that UMSON takes long to get back and most won't hear until April. I turned in my application on Jan 29., and I keep looking like they would have already said something hahah. Hope to hear back soon!

I might call and ask to confirm that because Towson's going to give out decisions soon and (if I get in) i'll probably have to give them my decision before I hear back from UMSON :(

That's exactly what I said the the rep. I applied to Towson's BSN, CCBC's ATB through Towson, and UMSON, but I'm sure the other 2 schools give at least a month for decisions.

She said a lot of people are complaining about the late date, but there's nothing they can do. They recently changed some system, which is causing the delay.

Yeah I applied to those same programs as well and I hate that the decision dates are so far apart.

UMSON is full of it lol they’re known for late admission announcements. If u check back on other threads from previous semesters it’s literally the same thing. This ain’t about no system smh

Now I don’t know if I maybe wanna switch locations ???

I was thinking about switching too, I chose baltimore but an advisor came to my community college and said you’re more likely to get into shady grove because less people know about it. i really wanna go to baltimore campus though.

I mean, you’re more likely to get in the Baltimore program because they take more applicants...

Baltimore takes 100 while shady grove takes 75. But if there’s more ppl applying to Baltimore then the probability of being chosen is slimmer due to the applicant pool being so large. It’s also harder cuz more ppl want to go to Baltimore so you’ll probably have more competitive applicants applying there too

I may be late on this but my application status now says "committee ready" was that there before?? If not that is so exciting!! If it was I am just dumb lol. I'm still hoping the first week of April is when we will hear from them so fingers crossed!! Does anyone know if we will only receive a letter or will we get an email or something too?

no that is a change!!! That’s good news. Mine has not changed yet. I know we will get call or an email, you can also keep checking th status on the website and it will say if your accepted or not, but you do also get a letter.
