University of Maryland

[Goldenatom]

Interviews wrapped up yesterday. How'd everyone feel that they went? Seemed pretty laid back to me. Though, I felt like they may have mostly made up their minds prior to the interview :-\

Anyone's application status updated yet? I hear that will be updated long before letters or emails get sent out...Good luck everyone!

Hello, I interviewed at Gtown and loved the program. The students i met were very happy with the school too. Maryland has a great program but the drive might be an issue due to traffic unpredictability. My friend went to UMB, commuted for a semester but then had to move closer to campus. Tough--------, pick what is going to make your life as a student simpler.

Reeeejected! Oh well, I'm a few months short of two years nursing experience...I sort of expected this. I'll just try again next year! Good luck to you all :-)

Sorry to hear that Goldenatom- theres always a way where theres a will. Goodluck on your future pursuit. Did you get a letter or did your status change?

i am enrolled in the patho class @ shady grove, i got the official letter today from umd, we have to reply within 2 weeks...i wish umd was like gtown and gave us until april 15, lol!!

[vladele]

did u interview at umd as well, i will be commuting from hyattsville, md; i am closer to gtown but the travel time would be about the same since I would also have to catch the shuttle from dupont circle which takes an additional 20-30min

[vladele]

and thanks for the advice

What does it mean if my status still has not updated?

[vladele]

im not sure, maybe u should call sheena jackson, 410-706-1995; shes pretty nice about answering questions. good luck and hope to see you in the fall!! did u apply to gtown as well?

[Juanito, BSN, MSN]

No, not Gtown. I am pretty mobile. Considering Barry University for spring. Let's see how that one turns out. Yes, Sheena has been a jewel. I'll get in touch with her.
