Hi,

Has anyone applied for this program for fall 2009? If so have you got accepted yet or are you still waiting? Have you completed all your prereq's?

Hi there!

I actually just submitted my application! The application literally took me 10 minutes to complete - is that normal? I suppose I just have to ask my school to send a transcript there and just finish up my pre-requisites. The process at Drexel doesn't seem clear cut - I am a bit confused about the ACE program in that there weren't clear dates and what not like other schools. The priority deadline for Fall 2009 is October 15th, but is it rolling admissions? I am going to be a senior at the Johns Hopkins University, and I am looking at a variety of Accelerated BSN programs. I really would like to get into the Columbia BSN-MS program though! Anyway, I'll let you know if I hear from Drexel in the next few weeks!

Hi,

Doesnt job hopkins have a great nursing program? Drexel is having an open house on the Ace Program on I think 9/09 at 5pm are you going? I hear the open houses give alot of info. I called today and they said that they will review after the Oct 15 deadline and they will accept until full. Also she said they give provisional acceptance so if you still have prereq's to do then they still give you the opportunity. When do you graduate John Hopkins? I wont have my Bachelors til May but she said no problem as long as I have it before I start. I am finishing up prereq's this semester then I am finally done. I have to look into Columbia what state do you live in? I am in Southern NJ so Drexel is 25 mins away.

I would call the admission secretary and ask if you should send an updated transcript from what she told me if you are missing something they will still accept you but you must finish whatever course is missing. You can submit it all at one time when your done. The secretary name is Fran Engleman 215-895-6731. They are still waiting on one of my transcripts. Did you apply to other schools?

Hi Bryana -

I will be graduating from Hopkins in May. I called Drexel last week, and they said that they'll start looking at applications on October 16th. I believe we can get a conditional acceptance if we're in the process of completing our prerequisites. Good luck to the both of you!

Hi All,

I applied and was accepted for the Spring 2009. I can' remember all the question you hd but I will answer the ones I remember:

As far as sending your transcripts from your pre-reqs, you don't have to, send then when you are done, unless all of you pre-reqs were completed in your first undergrad.

They do have a rolling admission, but the sooner you get your stuff in the better, you will be a first priority, but they way I hear about Fall 2009, is that a lot of people applied for that class and they only accept 120. If you need any info feel free to PM me.

Keya:wink2:

Hi everyone!

I submitted my application for fall 2009 just a couple weeks ago as well. I received 2 letters from them telling me they have all of my info, and to look out for another letter in the future about the status of my application. It said a few weeks, but I'm assuming since the deadline isn't until October 15? that they won't be making decisions until after that? Good luck to all that have applied! =]
