The Accelerated BSN starts June 1st and it seems that so many people are still waiting...Hey congrats on all of your acceptance from such good schools. I have also applied to Downstate.

VictoriaBrooke 10 Posts Apr 15, 2005 Sorry to hear you guys haven't heard yet! My friend applied there and she also hasn't heard either way yet. I think they may be waiting to see who accepts offers; they called me back in the first or second week of March to tell me I was accepted, then I got the letter almost 3 weeks later! But since I made the decision to go elsewhere, I've called them to decline the offer, so hopefully taht will free up a space for someone who hasn't been notified either way yet!Good Luck!!

Enjoy Columbia--my sister's partner was a social work professor and lived up there in the late 90's in faculty housing at 115th & B'way....Sorry to hear you guys haven't heard yet!
