College of Mount St Joseph MAGELIN- Direct Entry MSN.

Published

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone here has recently done this program or thinking about attending. It is a 15 month program at the College of Mount St Joseph in Cincinnati. I applied and was set to go awhile back, but did not go for many reasons. Here again I am interested. If anyone else is thinking about MSJ or at MSJ, let's talk.

Woo! I just got an offer for an interview, I am pretty nervous about it. What is the interview like? Do they talk about your grades or why nursing?

Had my interview the other day, it went well. The program was explained to me, and they asked me questions like why nursing, what are your strength and weaknesses and what it means to be a professional. It was very laid back. If I get accepted I was told I will be part of the January class but on a wait list for August which is not likely as I am #8 ha.

I applied, had my interview and received my acceptance letter all within two and a half weeks-- they are on the ball!! That is pretty much dead on for the interview. It is very laid back, and more of an informative session.

srawas89- I am #3 on the wait list for August! Does this mean you will be starting January as well??? :)

Hi everyone! Congrats to all!! I am #1 on the waiting list for August but am accepted for Jan 2015, but I am praying for the August push up. Has anyone committed yet? I am looking for a possible roommate, as I am from Michigan and will probably be relocating. Please respond at your convenience. Best, Mye

I committed already! But I live locally. You'll have to let us others who are wait listed for August if you get offered a spot!

Once accepted how much is the deposit to commit Michelle? I will be coming from Michigan as well, I guess I should hurry up and apply if people are already being accepted have not even written my goals statement yet yikes ! How much though and effort did you guys put into yours?

You must pay $500 to hold your spot, it goes towards your tuition and is nonrefundable if you decide not to attend. You also have to pay $60 for a criminal background check.

For the essay, I would put effort into it but don't stress over it. Once it was submitted, they didn't mention it in the interview or anything.
