Dos and Don’ts of the Application Process
Are you applying to UMSON? This session will guide applicants on what they should and should not do during the application process to ensure they are submitting a competitive application with all required items and prerequisite courses prior to the deadline.
How to Ace Your Letter of Recommendation
This session will help applicants understand the requirements for letters of recommendation (academic vs. professional) and how to send the recommendation request via the dashboard.
Using the Unofficial Transcript Evaluation Service
Before you begin the admissions process, you can submit copies of your unofficial transcript(s) to us for review, and an admissions counselor will advise you on your requirements for admission. This session will walk applicants through filling out the unofficial transcript evaluation form.
Prerequisites: Transferring Your Credits
This session for BSN, RN-to-BSN, and RN-to-MSN applicants focuses on the prerequisite course list, coursework requirements, selecting the right course, and applying with courses in progress.
