    Hi crissy07, I'm in the accelerated program. You CAN work. They'll discourage you but you can definitely do it. There are 2 students who have kids and are probably working 16-20 hrs a week. I'm working as a PCA about 2 days a week, and have plenty o...

  5. umass boston accelerated bsn 2012

    I registered for the Summer and Fall. They did send out an email with the courses we need to register for and the specific course numbers. I'm sure they'll send you a similar email. If you PM me, I can give you the details on how to register & em...
  6. Student loan taking forever to pay off...

    Has anyone here obtained their BSN via an accelerated program? I already completed my undergrad with $17K left in loans, and am about to start an accelerated which will be close to an additional $55K for school & living loans. I was wondering if ...

    I know, it is steep. I thought I read since it's technically a 'graduate' program you might be able to qualify for more money/scholarships etc.

    I want to say I read they needed deposits by May 1, but the deposit form was also for fall 2012 students, so the deadline might be sooner for the accelerated. Also - Northeastern started a new direct entry online program that can take 48 students p...
  9. NEU Direct Entry Online?

    You'll get set up with admissions adviser and they'll send you all the info and how to apply. They pretty much hold your hand through it and make sure you get everything. Also, the phone call is VERY informative.
  10. NEU Direct Entry Online?

    I did have a phone call with one of the admissions advisors and she said the program has been in the works for about a year. I think if you aren't familiar with online courses then it's something to really think over. Otherwise, my impression of nurs...

  12. NEU Direct Entry Online?

    The admissions rep I spoke with said they'd give me a decision by next week. I got accepted into the UMASS Boston ABSN program and waitlessed at MGH, so if I did get into NEU I'm not sure which I'd go with. Any reason you're pursuing the DE instead o...

    Thanks! I know, it's so unbelievably competitive and there really isn't a 'typical' student that gets in. My acceptance letter was dated 3/2 and I received it on 3/10 - and I live 4 miles from the campus... so there definitely is a time lapse! Good l...

  15. NEU Direct Entry Online?

    I spoke with an admissions advisor today. It is new, it starts in January, May and September every year and holds 48 students per class. May 2012 is the first cohort for this particular program. The BSN portion is online, with labs and some exams at ...
