Georgia State University ACE program Spring 2019

[Skadden]

Hello everyone. I noticed a forum hasn't been started for the Spring 2019 ACE cohort. Who else has applied? The deadline isn't until October 1st. I did not make the cut for Fall, so this will be my second and final time applying. Who else has applied? ACE or traditional? Let's keep each other informed.

Hey everyone,

I've been scouring over the past threads from previous semesters and the progression tends to be that everyone starts out happy and excited, then they start getting a little anxious around the 4 week mark, then biting their nails and neurotically checking their emails every few minutes around the 6 week mark, then doubting themselves and going into depression around 7 weeks, then calling the nursing school 3x a day to be told the same answers, and then a wave of acceptances come out around 8 weeks. So I just wanted to say hello, wish you all the best, and that I hope you're proud of yourselves and your achievements and that you can stay calm, stress-free, and focus on life and remain excited and open to whatever hapens. You all sound amazing and I hope to be in classes with you soon.

My stats:

- 95.3% on TEAS

- 4.28 GSU GPA // 4.20 Science GPA // 4.12 Overall GPA

- BS in Psychology form UCF

- EMT-Paramedic since 2008

This is my second application. I applied for Fall this year and there were lots of hiccups along the way being a transfer student. It's way too long of a story but suffice to say that I was denied and heartbroken, then they reviewd and changed my status to waitlisted and I got my hopes up... then there were more hiccups, and I never got another call. Womp womp. Fingers crossed it works out this time!

Cheers to you all and to the journey ahead!

Good luck everyone!

Do you know why you were denied? Your stats are great.

I was told it was because I was a transfer student from UCF and so my GPA in the system said "N/A"- it automatically updated with the pre-reqs I was taking when final grades went out on May 3rd but my denial letter was already issued on May 1st. So even though all of those pre-reqs finished with more A+'s, it didn't matter. I also submitted my TEAS scores in person the first time whereas I had ATI send them in this time. I really hope everything works this go-round! I submitted my application early and I've been in touch with the dept. to confirm that they've received everything. Now it is just a waiting game. But I'm happy to be waiting alongside what already appears to be a great cohort. I hope we are all in a classroom together in just a few months.

Really?? Do you know which program they applied to?

Hi everyone. I received my acceptance to ACE yesterday (Wednesday) at 17:54. It came via student email and said a packet should come via the mail in 7-10 business days. I've heard the acceptances come in waves and that most decisions will be out by Thanksgiving. I'll go ahead and start a FaceBook Group for the Spring Cohort later today and post the link. Good luck and stay positive!

[TMedic, BSN, RN, EMT-P]

Here is the link to the FB Group. Since I'm not completely sure if this is how you share and add people to a FB Group, you can simply email me once you're accepted and I can send you an invitation that way!

Hey guys! I received my acceptance email for the traditional program on Tuesday around 5pm. Pretty much the same thing TMedic said. I wasn't expecting to find out so early. I'm 100% sure they'll keep sending decisions up to thanksgiving based on previous years. But please stay positive and hang in there y'all. Hope to see most of you soon!

[Skadden, BSN, RN]

Congratulations on your acceptances. I'm still waiting, hoping for the best. My birthday is right around the corner. What a gift this would be lol
