George Mason Accelerated BSN Fall 2011

[AEP1209]

Hi all,

I'm applying to GMU's accelerated BSN program for fall 2011 admission, and I have a few questions... First of all, I know that they don't require letters of recommendation, but will they accept them and read them if you send one or two in with your application?

Secondly, Does anyone know how much weight they put on the HESI Admissions Assessment? I believe this is the first year that they are requiring that applicants take this particular exam. I am currently enrolled in Anatomy & Physiology I, but we've only been in class for 2 months, so I'm not quite sure how much they expect us to know for the A&P portion of the HESI. If anyone could shed some light on this issue that would be great!

Thanks and good luck to all!

I am on the GMU nursing waitlist...

Letter came today and said that my app was strong, but I guess not strong enough...

Does anyone know my chances of getting in?

I got in as well!! What a relief!!!! I live down in Woodbridge. Expect your letters soon everyone!!!

and eferree, I have heard of two people finding out the summer before the program started last year that they got in (one in june and one person a week before classes started) so don't totally rule out getting accepted later on.

I heard a rumor that the classes for the GMU accelerated program were in the Manassas campus. Is this true?

....obviously the clinicals all are over....

Has anyone received their acceptance letters to George Mason University?

To get into the Nursing program you have to receive acceptance to both the university and the program.....While I did receive acceptance to the nursing program, I have yet to receive anything from George Mason itself about my acceptance to the university, and on the transfer website it says we should find out about our acceptance to GMU by April 1st.

.....I am starting to get worried that my application wasn't filled out right????

I didn't get in... Time to really start applying out of state and to spring programs... I might as well use this opportunity to get a change of scenery. Good luck to you all!

Hi there, did you get into GMU for the fall BSN Program? I will be there in the fall and just trying to get a group together...

[Lee2011]

Hi there...I also received an admission letter to the nursing program, but not to the University....wondering the same thing....was everything filled out correctly?

[Lee2011]

Thrilled that I got in.....I'd love to hear more info about how the program is set up, etc.

Hi! I also got accepted to the nursing program but have not yet received an admission letter to the university itself. It says it needs a copy of the admission letter to the university by may 30th...so maybe we'll receive one by then?

Anybody know the answer to this? Thanks!

[Lee2011]

Yes....just spoke to the admissions office and they said that letters of acceptance or denial will be sent out this week. It's a little unnerving....not knowing what that letter says...

[DriskillRN]

Thanks so much! Yeah, guess we'll find out then...hmm...
