Hello all!

With the start of the application cycle for Barry being right around the corner, I wanted to start this thread so we can all communicate and hopefully be future classmates! Good luck to everyone! ?

Out of curiosity when did you submit your application? I submitted October and still haven't heard anything. When I reached out they said they are still reviewing applications. 

I submitted September 15

Hi everyone- I was accepted but need to complete a graduate Chemistry class prior to program start...I was enrolled in an undergrad course but apparently it needs to be graduate? Anyone have any recommendations for grad level Chemistry courses I could start asap? thanks so much!

Congrats! I was just accepted too into Hollywood. They are having me repeat my GRE. I did my Chemistry through Portage which they accepted

They don't normally accept credits through portage. It has to get approved by (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME)

They leave the GRE score so broad stated on the admission requirements. I would assume 300 being bare minimum?

They have minimums for specific sections. My overall score was over 300 but because my quantitative was below 30 I need to retake

Oh so they are expecting a minimum percentile also? Thank you for sharing. This entire process has been quite an experience to say the least

Can I ask what score you received on the quantitative portion?

Hi everyone! I'm looking to apply to Barry for CRNA! I am worried that my GPA and GRE are not competitive enough. My nursing school GPA is 3.61 and my GRE is a 288 combined. Would you all who got in please share your stats and any insight as to how the application process was? Thank you in advance!

I can't speak to exactly what they are looking for GPA wise.  My cumulative was a 3.5 and my nursing GPA a 4.0 and I was told that was fine. I also have a friend who did get accepted and his GPA was closer to a 3.0? 
 

Regarding the GRE, my score was a 293 and I was told many times by different admissions people there that it was not a high enough score to be considered for an interview. I didn't have time to retake it since I didn't get my application in until October so I ultimately didn't end up getting an interview. I just looked back in my email and it says that they want your scores in every category to be around the 40th percentile. I hope this is helpful!

Has anyone who was waitlisted heard back from them regarding acceptance or denied admission?

Hey everyone! I saw this thread and wanted to ask how your first semester is going? Heard some mixed feelings so I wanted other opinions or anything from upper class men on the school? I have my interview with them Friday but got into FIU already so just wanting inside info.
