Marymount university (VA)

Apparently MU isn't too hard to get into, is that true? And my friend who goes there now says they accept a lot of people into their BSN program. Is that also true? Or is it pretty hard?

I live in the area and graduated from a nearby nursing school What I know about Marymount is that they initially let a large class into the program but there is a very large fail rate per cohort. One graduate I spoke with said he started with 30+ in his class and only 17 graduated I have a feeling they just move the students who can hack it ahead and the ones who can't just fall off.

Did you guys hear anything else? I was considering applying there!

I graduated from Marymount in 2007 from ABSN program. What do you mean "not hard to get into". That makes no sense. How can that be answered? We have no idea what you consider "hard" You need to apply if you want to be a nurse and then see what happens. Are you specifically looking for schools that are easy to get into? There is nothing easy about nursing. I applied to Marymount because it is a really good school and the instructors are excellent. They expect a lot (so that may be not in your lane) and WILL fail non hackers. You want "easy" try something else.
