GMU Accelerated Second Degree BSN Fall 2016 Accepted Students

Hello future GMU nursing students! I just got my acceptance letter from the nursing department today and wanted to reach out to my soon-to-be classmates! Who else got in to the program and plans to attend!?

Hi! I am a Fall 2017 hopeful. My first degree (also from GM) in Sociology. I am excited to learn some real life skills. I've been studying eveything I can find in an attention to prepare myself.

Oops, I waited too long to edit that and I don't see a way to delete. I guess I wasn't very articulate at 6:40 am.

Hi, Samwins. Good for you for getting a head start on studying. I did the same after I got accepted to GMU ABSN and did NCLEX review during the summer. NCLEX is what you are ultimately hoping to pass and eventhough I didn't know the answers, getting familiar was the goal. I use Uworld.com nclex-RN review and Saunders NCLEX review. Good luck! When you are ready to purchase books, scrubs, and supplies, many of this year cohorts may be willing to sell at discount. Your book expense for first semester will run into $1000.

Any 2016 ABSN grads out there want to comment on how the job hunting went after passing the NCLEX/during the school year? Should we be looking for jobs now with just a semester + a few weeks under our belt? I think our facebook group moderators kicked out all non-2017 grads, so please post here if you'd be willing!
