Rutgers-New Brunswick ABSN Fall 2014

lte16 · Jul 15, 2014

Hi Nadia89! Congrats on your acceptance to the program!!

I actually have not been accepted yet, but plan to apply in Fall 2015, so I was wondering if I could ask you about yourself a little, and ask a few questions about the program. Where did you attend undergrad and what was your GPA? Did you work in the medical field before applying? What do you think gave you the edge to get in? Also, what are the start and end dates for the program? And finally, what were the names of the courses you took for interpersonal communications, nutrition, and life span requirements?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Nadia89!

Same question as those below me -- what did you take to satisfy the "Interpersonal Communications" course? I'm currently taking my prerequisite classes at community colleges around NJ, so am hoping there's some sort of online class that would fulfill this pre-req? Thanks in advance!

Hi nadia89,

I am also applying to the RU Accelerated BSN program at New Brunswick. I heard if there are not enough applicants (20) all of our classes will be held at the Newark campus. I was hoping to hear more about the program from a current student's prospective. I'm not sure how to PM you, but I can give you my email if you are available to help! I really appreciate it.

Hi nadia89,

I'm in the process of deciding between Newark & New Brunswick. Could you help answer a few questions about the program from your experience?

Hey guys!! I apologized as I did not check this page after I got accepted into the program. I graduated from the program last month. When I applied to RU, I applied for New Brunswick cohort since it is close to home. Unfortunately, they did not accept enough students and I was told that I can start in Newark or defer for another semester. I then decided that I am willing to drive to Newark to get this program over with. It is a good school and provide many opportunities for their students in terms of clinical location, volunteer, internship etc. They even upgraded the sim lab which is top notch & I love it. However, the program itself is very disorganized. I still recommend incoming students to consider RU because something about RU that increase your chance of getting a job interview (I did not have a hard time to get a job interview). Good luck to all of you!!
