UNLV SON Summer 2013

IRISHLUCK · Mar 4, 2013

Does anyone know how many applicants on average the SON gets each semester? I believe they accept 48 but out of how many?

As of lately, I'd say between 80-100 people apply. So, roughly half get accepted from the pool of applicants each semester, still better chances than most other schools though!

Thank you. I'm just starting my pre-reqs but hope to bang them out ASAP. Getting my first year done at CSN and then transferring over to UNLV.

Nice to know what my "odds" are.

Nobody's received a call yet? :unsure:

No. A friend of mine who should be accepted b/c she has a good score hasn't got a call either.

My best advice is to tread carefully in your biology/math/chemistry classes, it will pay off. By the time you apply there could be fewer or more applicants...it's all a guessing game. :)

Supposedly the nursing department is still deciding upon the top 48 applicants, but we should be receiving calls by the end of the week.

No need to worry yet, then. Where did you hear that from?

Thanks. As a vet returning to school I'm a lil' rusty but I am more than determined!

The front desk of the nursing department, she said they were most likely still deliberating because she hadn't heard any new news.

That's awesome IRISHLUCK what branch were you in? Also, your best asset is perseverance, if you have that than there is no need for worry; everything is within your means.
