University of Oklahoma ABSN Summer 2012

U.S.A. Oklahoma

Published

Hello! I don't know how many of you are turning in your applications for the summer 2012 OU ABSN program, but I found a helpful page on OU's website which contains a schedule for this year's ABSN students. It might be good to check it out in order to get a better understanding of an ABSN student's schedule--I found it extremely helpful. Best of luck to everyone applying this year!

That was another question I had. Where do we post it and were we given any instructions/guidelines for this?

Never mind! I guess D2L was updated and now I see all the info. I will create a Facebook group when I get home this evening, that way we can easily use each other as a resource. I'll post on here and email everyone via D2L when I've created the group. Also, I was told that we will pick up our uniforms, patches, etc. the first week of class and that we will only wear scrubs to clinicals and to dress casually for class.

I've made a group on Facebook called, OU ABSN OKC 2012-2013.

I can't find the facebook group...does it take a day to get it approved?

As far as the textbooks I went with the alumni textbook w/ ebooks option. Yeah they're more expensive, but everyone I've talked with has said the e-books are a life-saver when looking for information quickly and making study guides.

Compost 189, who did you talk to about the patches and when to wear scrubs? I've been curious about that myself...

I will be applying for the Spring 2013 Lawton-Duncan ABSN Program. Would any of you mind sharing what your GPA's looked like so I can gauge what my chances are at making it in? Also, if you don't mind letting me know what the program is like once you get started! Congrats to everyone who made it in!

Here is a link that you may find helpful: The University of Oklahoma College of Nursing - Prospective Students. It has the admission stats for the past 3 years, but not 2012 yet. My cumulative GPA was only a 3.37. I really thought I had 0 chance on getting in, but by some miracle I was accepted. They will factor your Science GPA, Cumulative GPA and your past 60 hours. My past 60 credit hours and science GPA were much higher, which I think helped me out.

Also check out this link: The University of Oklahoma College of Nursing - Current Students - Orientation and click 'watch student orientation'. The first few minutes they talk about our admission stats. Be sure to meet with the adviser as well so she will remember you. I can't say it will help, but it doesn't hurt. Also, Lawton-Ducan has a much lower admitted GPA acceptance than OKC or Tulsa. Hope this info helps!

Hey I'm applying for the Duncan absn program for 2013 as well! I'm freaking out a little because my science GPA is lower than I'd like but my cumulative is a 3.4 and my last 60 hours is very good so I'm hoping my measly 3.15 will be balanced (stupid chem 2) anyway I can't wait to hear more feedback!

I'm also wanting to apply to the ABSN in Duncan for 2013. I totally understand your fear about grades. My cummulative and last 60 hours look great, I think; my science GPA is what keeps me up at night. I made a bad decision in my sophomore year of undergrad studies and never withdrew from anatomy. So that grade is haunting me. I have completed all the other pre-reqs in Alaska. Heres hoping things work out well for us. I do hope they put up the 2012 stats soon. I'm sure we'll be fine.
