Hello shoemjen!! So glad you responded, i thought i was the only one applied, ha ha. Hoping for good news also. The waiting and wondering is a bit excruciating to say the least. Only 4 more weeks according to the program application, sometime in early April we should know if we get accepted. I seem to think about it many times during the day and try to forget until I know, but its a bit hard. I hope to meet you one day and be in the program together!!

Hello amam13! I actually was surprised too that no one had responded yet! I saw a good amount of people turning in applications so maybe they are just in hiding haha. But I totally agree, I think about it everyday! The first week of April needs to hurry up and get here! I also put in an application for the new direct entry Nurse practitioner program so fingers crossed! I hope to meet you too, GOOD LUCK!!!

Whew!! When I checked the mail there were two envelopes from school, one from the Traditional program and the other from the Accelerated. I was soooo nervous to open them but at the same time I wanted to tear them open. The Traditional said I was excepted, congratulations!!!!!! What a weight off my shoulders from all the waiting and wondering. Shoemjen I hope to hear you get in also, good luck to you and everybody!!!!

SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!! It really is a huge weight off our shoulders, seems like it took forever to hear back haha. But I also was accepted to the accelerated program! So I'm sure we will run into each other :) congrats again!!

hey shoemjen,

i have applied to the accelerated program and was wondering what your pre-reg gpa was? Also did you have all the pre-reqs finished? Im kind of nervour because they aren't accepting BIO 168 and BIO 135 because I am in the process of taking microbio lab at the moment. I also don't have patho or health care ethics. But for the rest i have a 4.0 in the classes.

Hi patelp30,

My GPA was only a 3.45 when I applied, but I did have some experience as a ER tech prior. I did not have all of the pre reqs complete, I believe they allow you to apply as long as 4 out of 7 pre reqs are completed! I ended up taking pharmacology and health care ethics the summer before the program started. You should be just fine! Good luck and let me know if you have any other questions :)
