I am applying to George Mason Nursing (Traditional) for the year 2018! I wanted to start a forum because I didn't see any for this year! Does anyone have any idea how competitive the program is? I am taking be HESI on the 11th and I am so nervous about the A&P section of the test.
Hey,
I thought my resume, essay, and video were fairly strong. I spent hours recording and re-recording my video trying to make it perfect. But everyone's point of view is subjective and I am probably very biased towards myself. I'm sure those who were accepted had stronger applications than mine and I understand that. I'm just hoping I can get accepted soon.
Hey Meg, I was reading the 2014 ABSN forum, and someone who was also waitlisted got taken off on May 14th.
That year GMU sent the first round of letters around March 29th which is close to this time around.
That person also said that GMU called and sent her an email with a time frame in which they wanted to hear back from her. I'd keep monitoring your email for now.
Hope it works out for you 😊
Hi Meg,
I also know a freind of mine who got waitlisted and then get accepted, after giving up. So, I really hope and pray that the same thing happens to you. I believe that you are a strong candidate, and the fact that you got waitlisted is a prove to that. Mostly it's a matter of space why you got waitlisted and other applicants might have had some clinical experience along with strong Academic background. incase you did not have any clinical experience such as working as a clinical Technician. I Wish you all best.

Hey Meg,
When I went to the info session, they said that they factor in the entire application, such as resume, essay, and the video. If your grades are excellent, then you shouldn't have to worry about the academics part. How well did you think you did on the resume/essay/video?
