APU BSN Summer 2021

Published

Hey everyone,

I have just submitted my application for the Summer BSN program at APU. Has anyone else submitted their application or would anyone else like to share their stats?

 

Science GPA: 3.16

Overall: 3.66

Specializes in Critical Step-Down.

Good morning everyone, 

     Forgive me if I'm just not getting it - but if the cohorts are made up of 30 students, and there is High Desert, IE, & Monrovia - is that not 90 students that will be admitted? I thought I read somewhere on one of these replies that a couple people said just because there are extra locations doesn't mean extra spots. Does anyone know?

Thanks!

Hopefully I can answer your question since I’m not 100% sure on what you’re asking. If you go by total acceptances per semester then yes, they admit 80 students throughout all 3 campuses. However, once you have selected a campus, it is rare to receive an offer to attend a different one unless your application really stood out and that was the only option left or some other outstanding reason along those lines. Also, you wouldn’t be offered a spot to attend the LVN-BSN program if you applied for the 2+2 program. So cohorts are made up of 20-30 students depending on the program and the entire class size accepted for Summer 2021 would be 80.

This helps! Thanks!

Overall: 3.53

Also, I have no previous medical field work experience, but I do have some volunteer experience.

So my situation is kind of unique since I mentioned the LVN-BSN program used to have a competency test before official acceptance was offered. The first contact I received from APU was an email that invited us to take the competency exam. Then a phone call saying the same thing; that was on February 25th. Once COVID cancelled everything in regards to the competency exam, we finally were offered official acceptance on April 1st through email and a phone call.

Did anyone else get that email in regards to safety measures at APU for fall semester?
