GSU RN Bridge Program 2018

nursebfly · Dec 21, 2017

I applied in September and received a letter stating I met the minimum requirements and that a letter would be sent before feb 28th if I was accepted. Did u get that letter?

I also got a letter stating I met the minimum requirements but that was before the date changed. I just found out that they will send out letters by Feb. 28th. I heard that the bridge program was not competitive like the traditional track. Have you ever heard that?

Yes... from what I was told they accept 40 applicants but barely have 20-24 who apply so if u meet the minimum requirements you should get in. It's like the best kept secret! I was super annoyed when the start date was changed a week before the May 31st deadline. But it gave me an opportunity to complete the BSN coursework for the university of Alabama. Which has less pre req's than GSU btw

Thank God for that! Its been a very long journey for me! Does the university of Alabama offer an online course? I was planning to continue with Walden University for an MSN. I know quite a few who have done that.

Yes... it's strictly online. They also have a 7 semster RN to MSN. Which is the route I'm probably gonna seek. It has been a 10 year journey for me. UA has a wealth of information online and I've contacted the mobility coordinator about which classes transfer etc

I'm going to look into that one as well. Thanks for the tip and I'll hopefully see you in August!í ½í¸Š

Well May... the program starts in May. *crosses fingers*

Oh. I don't know why I thought it started in August.í ½í¸€

Hi, Are you scheduled for an interview? I had no idea the course was going to be a one year accelerated course! Were you aware of that?

nursebfly · Jan 25, 2018

I am... I'm scheduled tomorrow. "accelerated"? So it's not a one day a week class followed by a clinical???

Moonkite56 · Jan 25, 2018

Not anymore. I sat with Ms. Creel & 2 other staff members, and they said it is now and accelerated program...graduation will be May 2019. We have to go every day during the week!
