So I called and they said they told that person that it will be this week or next week? But possibly this week. They also said that they have a lot going on and maybe that's why there's a delay? 🤷🏻‍♀️

They just emailed me back "decisions will be sent out shortly" They said they're behind sending out decisions because there was a very high volume of applicants this cycle.

Wondering if the excessive time to review applicants is giving anyone else pause? I submitted my application back in December so it's been over 4 months. I heard back from the other two schools months ago. I've read the other posts about this program's lack of organization. Do you think this process is indicative of broader issues from a program management aspect?

As someone in the program right now, I can tell you it's fairly disorganized. But when I meet people at clinical from other programs, they generally complain about the same types of things we do.

It really sucks, but you gotta roll with the punches in this program (and nursing in general).

Also, I am more than happy to answer any questions. Just know answers to subjective questions are based on my experiences alone.

Not sure if this is true but someone said they were having issues w accreditation. I'm not 100% sure though

GMU-ABS · Mar 27

The school is up for re-accreditation this year. I think rumors flew around because the CCNE was visibly around for a few weeks. Students didn't realize the school needs to re-accredited every 10 years, so people were wondering what was happening. An email was sent out that the CCNE folks would be around but I'm sure people ignored it.

I suppose we don't know the results yet, but the school has been accredited for decades and it has way nicer facilities and resources than it did 10 years ago.
