MUSC ABSN Fall 2013

U.S.A. South Carolina

Published

I recently applied for priority admission to the Fall 2013 Accelerated Nursing Program at MUSC. I started this thread to makej contact with anyone else that may have applied priority or is planning on applying regular admission for Fall 2013. Anyone out there?

@jnlaw, I spoke with someone yesterday from admissions and she told me I wasn't accepted, and took my number down so that someone can call me and go over my weakness/strengths of my application. I received a call this morning, and she said I received strong points for everything except my cum. gpa, which I thought was 3.53, but they calculated three courses I failed in 2003. She said that even though I had retaken them and received A's, they still used the failing grades in calculation. I was hurt because she said that was the only reason why I wasn't accepted, it brought my gpa down to 2.99 in their system.:(

@jnlaw I've done all perquisites for Trident's program, and will take chemistry in the summer to transfer for rn-bsn. I'll just be taking nursing courses.:) I haven't registered for anything yet, I will contact my advisor soon, so if you don't make it into MUSC, hopefully we'll be classmates.:)

@babygyrl9706 that's unfortunate but their lost. I'm a believer that everything happens for a reason and while we may not understand it at the time it's probably a bigger and better opportunity ahead for you. Easier said than done but you just have to trust and believe that. Besides you got accepted into a school thats just as good...some people havent even been accepted to a program yet. My gpa isnt the highest either so idk... if it's for you it will be and if not that just means its something greater out there for me for us all... Hopefully i'll know something today or tomorrow and i'll let you know.

Jnlaw- mount p is expensive but you could live in west Ashley- the closer to the highway, the safer. Before we bought a house in mt p, we lived at heron reserve apartments which we really liked and were reasonably priced for charleston

The area off of Glenn McConnell and 526 is a pretty safe area

I just got my acceptance letter! Hopefully you all got something today as well.

@jnlaw I second the West Ashley area. I live here and love it. It's not far from everywhere, yet not quite as expensive and very safe in my opinion.
