Brandman University ABSN Program

[epowetata]

Hi All,

I'm wondering if any one has heard of Brandman University. They have a new ABSN program in San Diego, CA that i'm looking into. My grades are not competitive but i want to get into my career soon.

Has anyone been to this school, and if so, how did you like it? Do you think I'll be able to land a good job as an RN if I were to apply and attend? I'm nervous, since it is a new program! Such as, what if they end up closing and the degree won't be valid ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Everyone,

I'm currently waiting for my file to be evaluated. I will keep everyone updated.

I applied for the Summer 2020 semester back in August, still waiting to hear back. Anybody else waiting on a response for Summer 2020 term?

[Ronnathelion, BSN, RN]

I applied for Summer 1 and my advisor told me Summer 1 responses will start coming out after March 15. Decisions are not made on a rolling basis before that timeframe.

@Veronika

What do you mean "decisions are not made on a rolling bases before that timeframe?" If you can please clarify that for me.

[Ronnathelion, BSN, RN]

They are going to make a decision after the 15th and regardless of when you submitted you will not receive acceptance or denial until after that date. It gives them the best chance to pick the most qualified individuals I presume. If there is space still available they will consider applications submitted after the fact on a case by case basis.

@Veronika

I see, thank you for clarifying. Best of luck.

@omarrr_h How come you did not apply for Spring 1?

@omarrr_h

My counselor said the decisions will be made at the end of March and they review all applications after March 15th

@Veronika I originally planned to apply for Spring 1 but the application process online when applying did not give me the option to apply for Spring 1 only for Summer.
