University of Detroit Mercy Accelerated BSN 2017

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hey all,

I need help maybe reconfirmation. I am so nervous about applying to accelerated BSN programs. I live in SouthEast Michigan near Royal Oak area.

Here is a little background of me:

I have a Bachelors in Public Health minor in Science (2.65 GPA)

I have a LPN ( 3.2 GPA)

I have worked in the healthcare field for more than 10 years. I currently work as a Clinical Research Coordinator (Oncology and GI).

I recently retook:

A&P 1 (3.7 GPA)

& A&P II (3.8 GPA)

Dev. Psychology (4.0 GPA)

BUS101 (elective to boost gpa 4.0)

Fall 2016 I will be taking:

Micro

Chem

Nutrition and

Ethics

I hope to apply to U of D Mercy Accelerated program for 2017 ASAP. I went to a orientation and the Director said they do not only go by GPA, they take other applicants in consideration. She also said the undergrad BS Degree has to be a min. GPA of 2.5 to apply.

Anyone in the same boat with a low Undergrad Bachelor GPA but high Pre-Req GPA?

Anyone applying for 2017 Cohorts? For people applying or accepted, Stats please?

I hope to hear from you. Thanks.

Hey, Yes I applied but unfortunately, UofD mercy did not receive my transcript from my undergrad.

I hope they can consider me with a late app.

I tried to call and talk to them but it seems like they are very disorganized.

Thank you so much! My gpa was a 3.35. I did a phone interview because I currently live in Texas . It was good they were extremely nice. They asked me why I wanted to be a nurse. I had a couple of scenario questions. They asked me how would I be able to handle the work load.. etc

Thanks so much for your reply !! i love Texas... i live 15 minutes from U of D Mercy. So I guess this is a pretty popular program. I called a couple of days ago and they said they had accepted 30 people so far and they can can up to 64 people. I am guess they are still reviewing applications. It is quite expensive.

But I think it's worth it.
