UMDNJ Accelerated BSN Fall 2011

U.S.A. New Jersey

Published

Hey Everyone

I was originally accepted into the Summer Accelerated BSN program but chose to defer my enrollment until Fall 2011. I would love to connect with people who will be attending the same program. Maybe we could connect via facebook or this site and create a support group.

Waiting to hear from my future classmates!

crmathew,

The NALC course is not mandatory but doesnt hurt to take it. You should call admissions, to see if they can tell you anything sooner. I got my acceptance letter this week, but because the NALC class and orientation is soon, It is hard for me to just pick up and leave, since I live in the west coast. Hope you hear good news soon!

Thank you Son14! I was contacted again today by them asking for another course syllabus..and they said they are just submitting it for review...has this ever happened to anyone who got accepted? I really want to get into the program! and it would've been nice to know by now so I could look for apartments or something around there but this waiting is killing me

How did you go about deferring your enrollment? I am accepted for this Fall; however, I am still wating to hear back from other schools and they start in January?

You can do that by going to http://sn.umdnj.edu/studentsonly/defermentform.pdf

Hi everyone,

I am looking to apply for Spring 2012. I've been reading these posts and see you all talking about the TEAS. I haven't seen anything about us needing to take the TEAS and it wasn't mentioned at the info session I went to this week.

Can anyone elaborate? Are they doing away with that requirement or am I missing something?

Thanks!

TEAS exam is AFTER you get accepted into the program. It's not an admission requirement. Hope this helps :D

Great thanks! I've actually already taken the TEAS when I applied to another school. Do you know if UMDNJ would accept a score from another school? It's the same exam, right? I did really well on it, so it would be kinda nice to be able to just use that score, and not have to take it again.

No, I dont think they are going to use the score that you have. Because there were other students who actually took them already for other schools and they still had to take again with us in the same room.

They probably will... i have a classmate who already took the TEAS for fairleigh dickinson so when we all took it he didnt have to. We just took it for Summer admission's dunno if they changed it for fall.. probably best advice is talk to prof. collins or debbie when the time comes lol.

As long as the courses you would like to transfer is non clinical courses, they ll waive it. However, you can transfer up to six credits. They accepted my pharmacology from previous school. Pathophysiology was denied because it was only 2 credits and umdnj is 3 credits..They wouldn't accept health assessment because it is a clinical course

Hi everyone..so I still havent heard from the admissions people and I have been calling all day to find out whats going on..I finally got someone on the phone and he said that a decision is available but he could not disclose it over the phone. But he asked me whether starting school on the first week of september would be a problem for me. And said that he has to find out whether he can e-mail me. I am just really impatient right now and was wondering if this happened to anyone while trying to hear a decision??
