Any University of Indianapolis students?

[inmale]

If so, i'd like to ask you a few questions.....

[pkuper]

Yes, I did get into clinicals! I start in January! UIndy has started a new section of spring clinicals! I'm very excited and I'm sure you will do very well yourself! It's been rough. Taking organic chem and physio together made me so upset, I cried 24/7, but this semester has been fantastic! How's your's going?

[twoods2]

I am so happy for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope I get in. I doing well. I am in "Abnorn. Psyc, Sociology, and a math class ....just getting my 24 hrs. Was it hard for you to get in? How was the GPA rank? Yes...I heard the opened a new BSN track for Jan!!!

[kool-aide, RN]

What's this? They're accepting students in the Spring, now? Is it only for BSN?????? I couldn't find anything about this on the website....

[twoods2]

Its not on the website...but Yes it is only for the BSN....a friend of mine in my abn. psych class starts in January. I think this is a great thing!

[twoods2]

I am so glad we could find a support group for Uindy...LOL.....unlike Ivy Tech..LOL

Yes, they did officially open up spring clinicals!! YAY!! I don't know if it's only BSN or whether it includes ASN or not. The gpa rank was rough. I ended last semester with a 3.1 and was waitlisted for the fall, but accepted for the spring.

twoods2, I was like you just trying to get in my 24 hrs to get first priority. So, are you applying for the spring semester?

Kool-aide, this is the first year they have ever done spring clinicals, so I think they're going to see how it goes. I'm not sure, I imagine they won't officially announce it until later this year. They didn't take any new applications for this first spring semester. They only accepted people who got waitlisted and others who got turned down but had the required 2.82 GPA. I think because they are getting so many applicants who are qualifying for the program that are eligible. They had 100 applicants this past spring and only 64 BSN spots.

[twoods2]

Oh wow...Okay. Well...Looks like I need to keep my GPA high. I am applying for the spring semester ASN...Hopefully I will get in, if not I will apply for BSN as well.

[twoods2]

That is good that they decided to accomodate the people who were waitlisted, or not approved...that is a blessing!!!

[pkuper]

Yes! Very true twoods2. I think BSN clinicals were harder this past semester to get in than ASN, but definitely just work to keep your GPA high. I think the ASN program only had 64 applicants and 58 spots, although, I'm not 100% sure. Just make sure to take organic chem if your going to potentially apply for the BSN program, because it's required for BSN clinicals but I don't think it is for the ASN.

But, keep up the hard work! It'll definitely pay off for all of us!

Hi:) I am in the same position. I just transferred from Ivy Tech after spending almost 2 years there. Because of my lack of UIndy credits, I probably wont apply to clinicals until Spring 2012 for Fall 2012 start date.. What classes are you taking this coming semester? Good luck!!

[Falon]

Hi Twoods:) I too transferred from Ivy Tech with all of the pre and corequisities completed for their RN prgram. I wondered if all of your A&P credits transferred? I ended up having to take physiology at UIndy because they accepted my A&P credits from Ivy Tech as just Anatomy.. Thanks in advance!

[twoods2]

Hey falon...yes they took mine, but only because I had Microbology, and advance Physiology too.
