Anyone else Nervous? - Applying to MUSC and UMSL

5 Posts

Hi guys and girls! I'm new here so if this thread is in the wrong area I apologize! I'm applying to MUSC's accelerated program for Spring 2009 and UMSL's Accelerated program for May 2009. I am incredibly nervous! I have a 3.95 GPA and I'm really not too worried about getting into UMSL, but I'm definitely freaking out about MUSC, which is my first choice. I talked to an advisor there and she said I had a very competitive GPA, but I should volunteer at a hospital, which is difficult because most of the places I've applied to are full. Does anyone have experience with MUSC and what it took to get in? I know for those who do not have a bachelor's degree, do not need a GRE or anything like that...so I'm hoping my GPA will help a lot. I was accepted to UW Madison's nursing for this fall, but made the stupid decision not to go.

Anyways, is anyone as nervous as I am?! The wait is horrible... Apparently both schools look at the applications after the application deadline. This is going to be a long couple of months! Anybody else feeling this way? Please post and maybe we can make each other a lot less nervous!
