Drexel ACE Fall 2012

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hey guys... Just checking to see if any of you have applied for 's ACE program for the Fall of 2012. I applied this past summer, and I know that they just began looking at applications October 15th!

Has anyone checked the portal and seen a change in their status?

Hey all,

I got my provisional acceptance to ACE towards the end of October via an email attached with a transfer credit evaluation form with the remaining pre-reqs I need to take. I never received anything in the mail, is this normal? Oh, and good luck to everyone who hasn't heard back yet!!!

BrownieLover- Congratulations!!!! :) that is so exciting!!! Is your status on discover changed to say that you are accepted? I'm not sure about the mail thing but typically they send a packet in the mail a week or two later so you may want to contact them about it. Congrats again!!! :)

Thanks LS118! The status on DD is "Thank you for applying for readmission to . If you have not done so already, please contact the academic department to which you are applying. They will make a decision regarding your readmission and notify you directly. The department's decision will not be accessible through this portal." Since Drexel was my Alma mater, I don't know if this goes for every applicant but a quick email to an advisor never hurts!

I'm getting worried- I applied in late july/early august, and I thought I would have heard back by now. Do you think the wait is a bad sign? I have a 3.75 in my undergrad degree, and a 3.7 in prereqs with 4.0 in the sciences i've completed.

Hello all, I have not yet heard back either. Do we know when we should be hearing admissions decisions for the fall 2012 start if we applied before the deadline?

I wouldn't be concerned on not hearing back yet... If you go through threads for previous Fall admissions, it looks like the majority of people hear back by Thanksgiving or early December. I am sure most of us will hear something within the next two weeks!!!

Hi everyone. I applied to the Fall 2012 ace nursing program in mid-September and am currently a student in the pathway to health professions program. I have also not heard anything from admissions besides the notification on Discover Drexel "Thank you for your application. Your file is currently complete and under review. A decision has not yet been made regarding your admission status to Drexel University." I emailed admissions earlier this week to check the status of my application and received an email back saying "Your application to the ACE Nursing program is complete. Decisions for this program will be sent out in either late November or early December." So I guess it is just a waiting game for now.

PublicHealth I listened to the information session last night and they didn't say anything about decisions but during the question and answer portion when people asked they said they couldn't give exact dates but should be 4-6 weeks from when you apply. Im assuming that it's been more than 6 weeks for most of us, so hopefully decisions will be made soon!!

This wait is driving me crazy! Has anyone heard anything yet?

I was rejected! Hopefully this will give you guys a better timeline...

I received the email that my application was complete on August 10th.

I received an email that a decision has been made and to view discover portal Nov 30th.

The letter in the mail was dated November 29th and I received it Dec 2nd.

I had a 3.51 cumulative GPA in Psychology with all prerequisites complete, and factored into that GPA. (I took all prereq's simultaneously with getting my Psych degree) However, I won't finish my degree until May, I have 3 or 4 more classes that I am taking in the spring - that's the only problem I can think of (even though they said this was fine when I was applying), or a GPA of 3.5 just isn't good enough. It's pretty annoying that I know nursing is what i want to do and everyone says it's "in such high demand" yet every person I know is struggling to get into a program.

The letter gives no explanation and says " after careful consideration of your application, the admissions committee has determined that we are unable to offer you admission" .. call so and so if you have questions..

Good luck to the rest of you!
