I was not able to find a thread for Curry ACCEL program for Spring 2019, here's one for us!
I recently decided to apply some schools around Boston, so I'm still in the process of completing my NursingCAS application. (Yes, it was the last minute decision and I'm super stressed about completing all admission requirements by the end of this month!) Getting all documents delivered on time and writing a good personal statement would be the biggest challenge for me.
My undergrad GPA isn't great (low 3), but my pre-reqs are all completed and I have pre-req GPA of 3.9. I don't have any experience in a medical field, so it gives me an extra pressure to write my personal statement. Curry would be my first choice for now, but application process is way more complicated than I thought.
Anyone on the same boat here? By the way, is anyone sending a letter of recommendation? I'd love to hear anything from applicants to current students to even graduates!
I don't want to be a pest but it was really helpful looking back on past threads to see my chances. Most of the people joined today and I can not gauge my chances as I wait for my letter. So for the benefit of future applicants of Curry I will post my stats now and let you know how I faired. 3.62 over all gpa , 3.40 l pre- reqs, all finished. Three years work as an admin work in private practice.
I had a 3.18 in undergrad (marketing, graduated in 1999). I am 42, mom of 3 young kids. I have all As in my prereqs. No medical field work experience, just life experience raising 3 humans!
I got waitlisted. 3.2 undergrad GPA, 3.9 pre-req GPA. I work at MGH and have been volunteering there for the past year. I'm super bummed but wish you all the best of luck!
Hi All! I found out yesterday I was accepted! So excited, I have a 3.4 in my undergrad in Accounting, and a 4.0 on all my pre-reqs. Good luck to all that are waiting, I know how nerve-wracking it is!
