Hi Everyone,
I wanted to get a thread started for those applying for the Traditional BSN program starting Summer 2014. I've been following this thread:
https://allnurses.com/colorado-state-nursing/applying-uc-denver-828195.html
which gives out a ton of info and help.
I've just submitted my application and essay and just waiting for everything to update in the system.
Please share your fears, life/work experiences, GPAs, stories, etc. here.
Look forward to hearing from all of you potential students!

I submitted my application a couple weeks ago! Now it's time to wait. Do you know when they let people know if they've been selected for the interview? I know the application doesn't close until October 15, but I'm wondering if it's end of October or November.

Hello ! I'm considering applying for the UC Denver nursing program for Summer of 2014. I've finished all parts except the essay portion and the fee. However, I do live in Florida and I was curious about how strict the nursing school is about GPA and ect. I have a pre-req GPA of a 3.8 and an overall GPA of a 3.5. I'm finishing my last two classes for my AA this semester. I was also curious how you all like the University of Colorado? Thank you ! (:

Hi all!
When I applied last year for the UC-Denver traditional program, they began notifying applicants
for interviews beginning Oct. 23rd through Oct. 25th (for application submission deadline of Oct. 15th).
...and so the waiting game begins :) Wishing you all, the very best of luck!
Thanks, NoCoKate, for chiming in.! I was wondering when those would go out.
BOWESA, I would read the forum I linked above. It seems that GPA didn't seem entirely important as the essay but that is what I gathered from the thread.
Deadline isn't far from now! Very excited to see how everything is going to go down. Good luck, everyone!

Hi All!
Thought I would bump this thread since the application deadline has passed and we will hopefully be getting decisions in a few weeks! It's going to be the longest few week ever :)
NocoKate,
Do you know how many people are in your cohort? I called admission and someone said they admitted 175 for the traditional program? Does that sound right to you?
Hello! Yes, that number sounds correct. An article I read mentioned that in June of 2013, 150 students were admitted into the UC Denver traditional pathway (30 in the accelerated pathway).
I can only assume the number of admitted students rose for 2014 (ever so slightly) as a result of the CON staggering the start date of the two pathways.
