UMSON fall 2016 hopefuls ?

Published

Hello all, I am planning to apply to UMSON in the fall 2016. I haven't seen a thread yet for other hopefuls and potential candidates. So I wanted to start one.

Hello everyone

I've been following this forum for quite sometime. I applied to the CNL program and was getting frustrated too over not hearing about an interview since others had long heard about an admission decision. Fortunately I was scheduled for an interview two weeks ago and again I Anxiously checked about 10x a day to see a decision n I kept seeing committee ready, I almost gave up since I've read others received their decisions less than a week after they were interviewed. Well I checked surfs about 5x already today, last I remember was 12:29pm so I told myself I was going to try and let today go by without checking and possibly call the school if nothing changes by Friday but lo and behold I found myself logged into surfs (since it's almost become automatic) again at 3:39pm and what do I see ������, admit institution whew! I can't believe the wait is over, I nearly gave up especially reading this morning that there's already a Facebook group with over 50 admitted students but I'm here to let you know there's still hope so don't give up. I know it's a long rant but I'm happy n surprised all at once so pardon me. I'm mainly happy because I was admitted last year but couldn't make it and I'm glad I get a do over. Stay blessed and hope to see you all this fall. By the way if there's a CNL Facebook group, kindly send me the link. Thanks.

Hi amoda! Congrats on getting in!! I also interviewed 2 weeks ago for the CNL program but have not received my decision yet :( Would you mind sharing what day exactly you interviewed??

Also, when you say you couldn't make it, do you mean you tried to defer and they didn't let you?? just asking because my friend was admitted and she might have to defer because of a serious family situation so I really hope they let her defer to the Spring cycle :unsure:

Congrats amoda! I've also been looking for a CNL facebook group and couldn't find anything, so was thinking of creating one myself. If anyone knows of one that already exists, please share the link. If there's not already one, I can make one and share it here, I just didn't want to create another group if there's already one up and running.

Thank you bil94, I interviewed on Monday may 2. Yes I was admitted last fall but couldn't defer because only military personnel are allowed to defer but all the same your friend should contact the admissions office and see maybe it's a case by case situation.

Hi all! I am a baltimore BSN candidate have been following this forum for a bit now and I have honestly become so discouraged during this wait. I was originally in UMSON's partnership program with the University of Maryland, College Park which allows students who have certain grades and other statistics to have an automatic entry into the school. One of my grades fell bellow the standards, and so I had to transition to be a regular applicant in the poll. I was wondering if I could get your opinion on my chances, because UMSON is the only school I applied to because up to December I had a secured spot. This wait is making it closer and closer to the fall and I need to figure out my housing situation (I signed a lease in Baltimore a while ago) and I need to start making other plans if necessary. These are my stats:

3.6 overall GPA- A in human growth and development, nutrition, socy, psyc

3.0 science GPA- microbiology (A-), Chemistry (B), Anatomy 1 (C+/what took me out of the partnership), Anatomy 2 (B)

94% on TEAS/ 99% percentile

Really good recommendations

I just really want opinions because I can't just wait around any longer. I realize these are just opinions, but I don't really have any frame of reference

Also congrats to all who have made it in!!!

Thanks mjnurse23, it will be great if u can create the Facebook page because I haven't read about anyone creating one so far.

Here's a link for the CNL Fall 2016 Facebook group! Let me know if you can't join it. It's closed, so you may have to request to join: UMSON CNL Fall 2016

*I read somewhere that Facebook groups are not searchable until there are 10 members, so not sure if this is the only group that exists out there, but hopefully it is!

Specializes in Peds.

Oops wrong thread

Awesome, thanks edelate!!

Thank u edelate

Thanks edelate

Is anyone planning to move into Fayette square housing and need a roommate? I'm thinking of doing that but would prefer another nursing student (female) to room with (2bd) Fayette tower unit. I was admitted to the CNL program so someone in the CNL program will be ideal, I also don't mind a BSN. Thanks.

Congratulations, I was also accepted into the CNL program and might need a roommate too, where do u plan on staying if u don't mind me asking? I was thinking of Fayette square but it seems expensive plus I've read some bad reviews so I'm not sure. R u from the area or out of state?
