Hi everyone!
I was accepted into Barnes' Goldfarb's Fall 2015 nursing school, wait listed at number 40. Can anyone give me their Waitlist experience or experience with the school?
Thank you!!

I'm not sure if you already had this question answered or not, but I was put on the waitlist for the Accelerated program for Fall '14 and Spring '15 with a guaranteed spot in Summer '15. I had no idea what number I was on the waitlist because I knew I had a guaranteed spot in Summer. I got my admissions letter in April or May of 2014, and then received an e-mail near the end of July saying a spot opened for the Spring semester and to respond within a week to secure that spot. So, I did and started last month. I've talked to a few different people about it, and one of my classmates received a phone call in October to start in January, and another received an e-mail during summer for Fall '14, but it was too close to the start date for her so she opted for Spring. It does look like that a lot of waitlisted people get in though so just keep your fingers crossed :)
As for experience with the school, I'm still pretty new at the school and have only been there for a month and a half, but so far I really like it. The professors are all amazing from what I've had so far, although I'm sure that can change any minute haha. They've been really helpful with me so far. I've heard different things from students though, so it's what you make it. If you'd like to PM me I'd love to tell you more about the school, but I'm not 100% comfortable posting everything on a public forum :)

I was wait listed for the fall 2015 and got in! Not sure what number I was wait listed, I was guaranteed a spot for spring 2016! Good luck!

I am working on the prerequisites now, it says that Microbiology has to be taken within 5 years. Is that 5 years before you apply or 5 years until you start the program? Thank you!
Is anyone starting Accelerated BSN at Goldfarb in Jan 2016??
