Class of 2016 - potential Nursing students

My daughter was provisionally accepted to Clemson last Fall as a Junior. He scores are ACT 31, GPA 4.0, small school that does not rank. She applied to the Nursing program August 1st. We have heard some folks are getting acceptance letters already to majors other than Nursing. We thought it would be February before we would hear anything. Just wondering if anyone else has been accepted to Clemson Nursing? Thanks so much!

My d was accepted OOS to nursing this time last year. Last year it seemed like most students who recd scholarships ( which your d certainly should) heard in nov /dec and not Feb. My d turned down many other schools to attend Clemson and absolutely loves it ! I am thrilled and extremely impressed with the nursing program and the school in general. D has met wonderful people there and is thriving …good luck to your daughter !!

My son did not apply for nursing , but also has provisional acceptance . When we went to Fall Blitz, we were told that if you were eligible for scholarships they tend to let you know end of Nov into Dec. We haven’t gotten any letter yet either . :frowning:

I am also a senior who applied to Clemson’s nursing program shortly after the application opened with similar stats as your daughter. I called the admissions office asking the same question on Thursday. They said that because they are expanding the program this year (appx doubling the class size) they aren’t sure exactly how many people to admit and are holding off sending admissions letters for nursing. They still are not sure when they will begin sending them out. Best of luck!

Thank you for the reply ! Best of luck to you as well! @Laurenmargaret1

Thanks so much! @NJMOM3

I’d love to hear more about Clemson expanding the nursing program. My daughter is a junior and is starting the search. I have heard Clemson only has a few spots. How exactly is it changing?

@charlestonmom they are approximately doubling the size of the program. A few articles were posted about it that I read. I just found out yesterday that I am accepted to their nursing program! So excited to be a tiger next year!

@scmomto3girls heard anything?

nothing yet :slight_smile: fingers crossed!

She got her letter today!!! She was accepted! So exited for her!!!

my daughter also was accepted to Clemson nursing program and is going.
