Denver School of Nursing (DSN) July 2015 Start

I'm curious as to whether any other prospective July 2015 DSN students have heard back from admissions yet...

I'm still waiting on them to cash my check, but I was in touch with a counselor about polishing up my package recently, so I know at least some progress is being.

At any rate, I'm interested in DSN b/c Nursing school is too damn expensive in California, even w/ the GI Bill >.

edit: And I'd also like to live in a place like Denver for college. Best part is if I like it I can stay in Colorado and not have to wait 6 months (which is the minimum wait in Cali for new licenses apparently!) for the state to issue me a license after my NCLEX.

The only thing I have heard from admissions is that they have received my application, just waiting patiently to find out!

Lol, I wouldn't say that I'm waiting patiently, definitely looking forward to getting the news! I looked at a thread last year and it looks like applicants started getting emails February 7th (a friday).

Here's to hoping that we'll get an email this Friday on Feb 6...

Hey guys! I am waiting to hear back too. I think it said 6 weeks following the app deadline, so that should be next week. Good luck!!

Hi all! I applied for July 2015 start date as well. SO ANXIOUS! How is everyone else feeling?!

Are you excited to start? Which program are you in, BSN to completion?

cms2015 · Feb 10, 2015

Hey! I'm anxious too :) Very excited though. I hope to hear in the next few days! How about you?

RonaldLS · Feb 10, 2015

I'm a little anxious... I've been accepted into a few schools in California, but I would rather not pay the California tuition rates (40k/year @ USF)!

@FutureNurseRebecca I heard that if you get asked for an interview, you're basically in, as long as you don't completely wreck the interview... Do you think that's true?

I know that google says DSN had an 80% admit rate in 2010, but I think would have changed since then b/c DSN has full accreditation now... Anyone else find info more recent?

If you get an interview you are in as long as you pass HESI if you need it and have completed else! It seems to be getting harder to get in as they are becoming more popular so things are always changing in sure!
