ABSN UMass Amherst 2015

Published

So, I would really like to get into UMass Amherst for there 2015-2016 cycle, so I will be sending in my application soon for there February 2015 deadline.

I'm just wondering if I even have a chance since my Bachelors in Biology overall GPA is a 2.99, then I took a summer course (Microbiology) at a community college and received an A. Hopefully that'll boost my GPA up for my degree?

I also have over 2,500 hours as a Certified Nursing Assistant, and I've studied abroad in England/Ireland for a Biology course.

This is my number one school that I would like to get into too, I was just wondering other peoples statistics on their GPA average, GPA for their pre-reqs, and if anyone has been or is in the program can tell me about it?

Thanks :)

Congrats bex177!!

Yay @bex177 - mine didn't come today but I'm sure this week. But I'm so happy for you!! :)

I'm so happy! I got my acceptance letter today! 😊😊

Congrats @lidia12!! Yay

@egboeman Yeah any advice would be great, thanks a ton! I'm hoping more people will find this forum and also be looking for a couple of roommates.

Bex177 congrats

@Schenck41 I live 2hrs away, I am very interested in renting an apartment together.. yes 2 to 3 roommates are great, if anyone else found a decent place please keep me posted.. thank in advance

@jewels29 I tried to look room for rent on Craig list too but so far no luck

I'm also interested in housing with a couple of classmates! Is everyone on the Facebook page? It may be easier to discuss there.

I emailed Cynthia and asked about my status. Basically she said they are still making decisions so anytime between end of March and mid April I should get my letter. -- so for those of you still waiting, there is still hope!! Don't give up :)

Yes I am on Facebook, and yes it's confirmed that they received my enrollment form and a deposit.. anyone also apply for the financial aid? I don't think I will qualify for anything but maybe it doesn't hurt to apply for it anyway

Can somebody send me the link to the Facebook page? Thanks!
