Summer Entry 2013 Accelerated BSN/MSN Johns Hopkins

Nursing Students Post Graduate

Published

Hi everyone,

How many of you have applied for the 2013 Accelerated BSN/MSN program at JHU SON? I applied early decision and completed my phone interview on the 26th. They said they will start making decisions calls around the December 15th which is a Saturday so I'm sure we won't hear anything until the 17th or later.

Is anyone else as anxious as I am to hear back from them? I even made a vision board on my fridge that reads: I WILL GET ACCEPTED INTO THE JOHNS HOPKINS BSN/MSN PROGRAM STARTING SUMMER 2013. Positive thoughts work, right? :saint:

FYI: I also applied to Columbia, Ohio State, and UCLA.

Good luck to you all. I'm a Hopkins student who is graduating in May of this year.

FYI, only MSN candidates get interviewed, even if you're applying for the BSN/MSN program. If you're just applying for the BSN, no interview.

That's strange. I am already accepted but I applied early decision for BSN only since I don't know which MSN conc I really would like to go in. But I got interviewed by an Admissions Director. I forgot her name.

Is anyone planning to attend the April 19th accepted students day?

I am flying out on the 18th and leaving the 20th early morning. I have a couple questions..do we need a car to go see places around there? and any hotels around that give discounts to students?

With the plane fare, hotel, car it just seems too expensive. If anyone is going and would like to share a hotel room or anything I'll be down to just cut down the cost. I am a male student, just in case if need to know.

Thank you

If you applied for the BSN/MSN combined program, they can feasibly accept you for the BSN portion only and not accept you for the MSN. Congrats on the BSN acceptance! Now it's all about waiting for the MSN *fingers crossed*

Has anyone heard back from John Hopkins regarding a decision for BSN program starting in May 2013? I am so anxious and haven't heard back yet and it is already almost the middle of Feb!

They say decisions are out by March 1st. I heard that people got responses last year on Feb 23rd.

I think we will hear in about a week or two, because I'm sure they'll go out before March 1st, so let's hope for around Feb 23rd, FingersCross'd!

What is taking them so long? My application has been done since the beginning of November (aka everything was in, had my interview). They said it'll rolling applications yet we all hear March 1? Doesn't really make sense to me and I am getting frustrated. :(

I feel the same way. It is going to come down to either Johns Hopkins (if accepted) or Thomas Jefferson (already accepted). I wish, like everyone else, I could know sooner than March to get all my finances in order/funnel my time toward one school. Good luck to all! Hopefully we find out soon!:up:

Sooo I called admissions the other day to ask when we would hear back and they said the first week of March. I'm not sure if that means by March 1st or after that.

Also, I asked about how we would be informed of the decision. All of the applicants received an email for the priority financial aid deadline and in it they said they would be "mailing decisions later this spring." I was surprised bc in the past applicants were notified by phone. But I asked admissions and they said that we would be notified through a mailed letter. Mail takes a while so we may know even after March 1st!

Eh, waiting.

Really? I have been told by multiple people that it will be done by phone call again this year and denials will be done by letter.
