UPMC Mercy School of Nursing -Class of '15

U.S.A. Pennsylvania

Published

Hi AllNurses community! I have been searching for a thread for the UPMC Mercy Hospital Class of 2015, but alas; no such luck. Therefore, I created one!

I was accepted to start in August 2013 and was looking for others who were, or are looking to be accepted. I know it's early still, but I am ready to start school and secure a study group.

Now to my question: I know Mercy has a tuition contract. Does anyone know anything about it? Is it a good deal? I know they are sending information about it, but I am interested in hearing opinions.

Thanks!

Absolutely true. Just make sure the school will accept it.

Thanks! And congrats to you too!! I'm taking it at wccc, I think it will transfer since my a&p did. I'm just trying to get everything out of the way now so I can just focus on the nursing classes.

Hey Taylor,

I don't know this for sure, but I think I read somewhere they only take transfer credits that were earned before applying. And that they will not accept any credits after being accepted. I would call and make sure before you waste a bunch of money on taking a class that won't transfer.

Hi Lindsey! Wow I didn't know that, I'll definitely have to call and find out for sure because that is a lot of money to waste! Thanks for letting me know! I also took pharmacology but I'm not sure if that class will transfer because its not on there list that's online. Are you going to be starting at mercy in the fall?

I wish ccac would let me take a lab this summer... They want me to take their pre reqs for Mercys pre reqs?? I'll just settle for nutrition sociology and lifespan I suppose!

I have a question. I risk looking like a retard...but I'm gonna ask it anyway (lol). Do we wear the uniforms to class AND clinicals/labs, or just when we go to clinicals? Thanks!

Specializes in transplant/case management.

Scrubs to clinicals only.
