Published

Hello,

My name is Kiara. I just received the great news that I have been accepted to Charles Drew University's Entry Level Master Program for Fall 2015. Charles Drew was my first choice and I am so happy to have been accepted. Is there anyone else who will be attending Fall 2015 Is there anyone currently in the program and would like to share your experiences in the program.I would love to talk.

Hi Kiara,

How is the ELM program at Charles Drew going for you? I am a prospective student with many questions. If you have some time, do you mind giving me a bit more info about the school? I attended an info session but it's nothing like getting information from a current student.

Thanks,

-Jai

Specializes in ICU, and some more.

Jai, I would recommend you to check the current BRN website for the approved schools. It's important that you apply for the accredited institutions.

I began at in the ELM-MSN program in 2017. I wanted to post here in order to provide more information as earlier posts frightened me when I applied. Yes, the school was on probation based on low NCLEX scores. Many things have changed and the school responded by changing admission protocols, timing issues, instructors, instituting HESI preparatory exams throughout and NCLEX prep courses. Although at the time of this posting, the information most recent review at the BRN was not yet posted, the last two cohorts that took the NCLEX have far exceeded the standard of 75% pass rate the the BRN expects. I think The Mervyn M. Dymally School of Nursing at Charles Drew University is great. It is a new school, so sure they have had some problems, but the facilities are new, faculty is high experienced and knowledgeable, clinical placements rival other nursing schools and opportunities for community engagement and research abound. In my opinion, Charles Drew is the best kept secret in health education in Los Angeles!

Hi danielmayanov, that's super exciting that you will be starting in the Fall of 2017. I am completing 2 more pre-reqs and then I will apply for Spring 2018. Do you know if prospective students are required to take the GRE?

Hey there,

I actually started in January 2017. I don't believe you have to take the GRE. I had to take the HESI admission assessment test. Here is the website for the admission requirements: Bad Request

Also, the admission staff is super friendly. You can just make an appointment or walk in and take a quick tour of the campus.
