University of Colorado accelerated BSN summer 2013 - Page 3

Congrats to everyone accepted. I am still waiting for my letter, as it had to go all the way to Pennsylvania. I am really hoping to find out that I have an acceptance into the accelerated program this week!

Hey all, I live on the east coast and got my acceptance letter for the accelerated program on Saturday. Congrats to everyone who was accepted - looking forward to meeting you all!

I found out today I got offered a spot in the traditional program. I am definitely grateful and relieved ... but also pretty bummed, because I really wanted the accelerated program. I had a good interview, have (nearly) a 4.0 GPA, plus 10 yrs healthcare experience. The only thing I didn't have was a Master's degree. Best of luck to everyone still waiting. I am not sure where to go from here yet...

I received my letter yesterday! It was dated 11/19, but didn't reach CA til 11/26. Just like bird8, I applied to the accelerated, but was offered traditional. I'm a little bummed, but being offered a spot in the traditional is still better than waiting another year to apply! Congrats to everyone for getting in!

I also received my acceptance letter yesterday!! (I am from Oregon)
Like bird8 and SuebNP I applied to the accelerated program but did not get in...
however I am very excited and a 2 year plan may actually be better in the fact that we will have more time to take everything in; although I am worried about living expenses and out of state tuition!

congratulations to everyone

Found out today I was accepted to Villanova's BSNExpress program - now to the task of choosing: CU traditional, or TJU or Villanova's accelerated! Happy

Does anyone know when in June the program begins?

hello! I'm not sure if anybody checks this thread anymore but I'm from out of state and have only visited Denver once (at interviews)
I was wondering if anybody knows of a good place/neighborhood to live around the school.
Thank you so much

If you're looking for a house and neighborhood, Green Vally Ranch out by the airport is an option and is pretty close to UCH. A little further to the east is the Southlands mall area and there are also houses there. If your heart is set in living someplace downtown, allow 30-45 minutes to get out to UCH because Colfax is nothing but lights. I can't comment on apartments in the area because the ones they're hit and miss. If you have questions about areas I might be able to help you out a little. We lived in GVR and had numerous AF friends live in Southlands and I lived in downtown Denver when I first moved there.

Thank you for the information! i just looked up green valley ranch, but as I don't have a car (most likely) do you think it would be a bit far?
I am looking for an apartment since I am moving to colorado by myself, and am not sure how long I will be there (I'm sorry I should have said this in the beginning). I have researched some apartments right by the school but as you've said, most didn't have very good reviews, or they are quite expensive I will try looking more, thank you so much for the help!
