So I signed up for the first initial contact visit which was an hour long seminar with an admissions agent and an hour long tour by a student ambassador. As soon as they realized I'd be a transfer student and a nursing major, they found an admissions counselor who had time tight away to take with me. I didnt' meet with the nursing guy, but a general admissions guy. I was able to ask a ton of questions but he couldn't answer everything. I was able to show my transcripts, in fact, he asked if he could keep them. So I've got a file started already! I have some advice on what to do for admissions, letters of recommendation, early applications, etc.
The school is small, class size averages 35, and they accept 40 nursing students a semester. Just as highly competitive as most other nursing schools, but different because it's a private university. Application needs to be in in October and I could know as soon as January if I made it in, but it probably won't be until after FAFSAs are due. FA package comes along with admission decision. I'm in financial "need" and I have great grades, if some body's going to get a scholarship, why not me? :)
I'll also apply to SF State and probably Hayward (East Bay) this fall too. Possibly Sac State too. I also need to figure out which community colleges have applications in the fall and if I qualify for application. Who knows where I'll end up. Back up plan is to transfer to City College and go from there.
I know I'm supposed to be here, and I want that too. I'm working with some financial fears, trusting Universe to support me.
