I think it's fine to call & ask. Good luck!

PS - I should have added - another program that I applied to told me that I would know by Jan 9th - so, I think the programs know ahead of time when letters will go out.

AlyRN2be,

Thank you so much, I appreciate it! Yes, definitely post if find anything worth while as I'm sure we can all use a little financial help!! Will you be definitely attending MGHIHP?

Graymama,

I think it is more than FINE to call and find out the status! I've called and e-mailed numerous times, and they were fine about it. I'm such an impatient person! But to help you out a little, according to a previous post on here, someone said that if you haven't anything as of yet, then you will hear something by the end of the this week (which is tomorrow) Good Luck!!!!!

Aly-where else did you apply?

[AlyRNtoBe]

Hi,

I also applied to the direct entry at Regis. Did you apply to any other programs?

[graymama]

I also applied to Regis and Simmons. Regis said they would send letters by January 7th if you had your application in by December 10. So next week should be interesting!

What do you think about Regis? Have you heard anything from nurses about the program at Regis, as far as reputation among hospitals?

[AlyRNtoBe]

I know a few people who are in the Regis program & love it. Haven't heard too much about it. Have you? I liked that you can work a little bit in the program. It is really expensive.

I wonder if a lot of people are also applying to the new UMASS accelerated program that starts in June. Same amount of time as MGH and very affordable....???

[AdrienneRN2b]

I didn't apply elsewhere because I was so not interested in taking the GRE. I haven't heard much about Regis, but I know the cost is steep! Has anyone gotten anything else from MGHIHP?

Graymama,
I called the admissions office at MGH and they said that we should be getting letters by the beginning of next week, possibly the end of this week. You could call again too, maybe it will hurry them up...the suspense is killing me!
