Emory ABSN Fall 2016

[bizcocho]

Hi!

Today was the priority deadline for Emory's ABSN program, and I've already heard back from them that I've been waitlisted. I submitted my application and all the materials early, but I was surprised they made a decision so early! Anyone else in the same boat?

I suppose it's better than a rejection, but so early in the process I'm a little confused about what it means to be on the waitlist.

Thank you, Sav768! I submitted my application around Sept 24th. I'm not sure exactly when my pre-reqs were received, but I know that it had been updated by Oct 17th and showed all green check marks (rather than the red X's). I found out today, Oct 29th, via an email directing me to check my application status. The email arrived around noon PST. Thank you again, and best of luck to you!!

If you don't mind telling me, could you all share your stats? I'm applying as well- I just started the application and want to get a feel for how I'm placed! :)

If you could PM me, I can share my stats with you :)

Anyone else hear back yet?

I applied around Oct 6! Anyone apply around this time frame and receive an admissions notice?? I'm getting so anxious already

Hello Everyone :)

I was accepted into Emory's accelerated program for fall 2016. I received a notification yesterday telling me to log into my account because an update was made to my application and it had a link to my acceptance letter. I am super excited and thought I would join the forum. I have listed some of my stats below which I believe all played a role in my acceptance to the program. Good luck to everyone!!!!

My Stats:

- I applied Oct 7th

- TEAS Score 82 (not required but I submitted it anyway)

- Undergrad GPA: 3.62

- Prereq GPA: 3.75 ( I still have to take Human Growth and Development)

- Past experience as a phlebotomist, 2yrs research experience as an undergrad, 2 summer internships in the field of veterinary medicine, ROTC, and a member of the chemistry and biology national honors society.

Congrats Jazfurnur!!!

We applied around the same time frame so I'm hoping I hear back soon too :) Wondering whether submitting my GRE to Emory is pushing my decision back....

(might be a double post, my other post didnt seem to post)

Also, thanks for including your stats! Is Emory your top choice?

[Jazfurnur]

Thanks v.lam827. I was under the assumption that they admitted on a rolling basis, so I would assume you would get a decision pretty soon. I only applied to one other school and honestly didn't think I would be accepted into Emory. I am still waiting to hear back from the other program but I am definitely leaning towards Emory.

[v.lam827]

Oh where else did you apply ?

[Jazfurnur]

I also applied to Georgia State, but I received an email earlier today stating that I was put on the wait list for their traditional nursing program starting January 2016.

I'm still waiting to hear back from them; I submitted my test scores a week ago so I've been waiting for an email! I'm not counting on getting in, but I'd still like some news

My prereqs have finally changed to the green checks.. Hoping I hear back any day now!! Except my bachelors still has a red x, as I am finishing it this year... Did this happen for anyone else?

Yes, this happened to me too. I emailed the admissions counselor and she said they can confirm your bachelors degree from your official transcripts. Mine updated within a few days :)
