I just wanted to say congratulations! How exciting.

I've only heard good things about the Rush NA program. I used to work at Rush. Way to go!

Congrats!!! I have also been accepted to Rush for this comming June!!

Congratulations to you, too! Are you going to take classes before June? You can email me through my profile if you want.

I have been accepted at Rush as well! Anyone taking classes now, perhaps we are in the same class.

Congratulations! I'm not taking classes now, but I plan to take pathophys and physiology in the winter. Are you guys from the Chicago area? Do you work around here?

PeglegRN · Nov 5, 2008

I live in Chicago, Lincoln Park. I work at University of Chicago in the SICU. Where are you from?

MICURN22 · Nov 8, 2008

Hey I am taking patho 1 and physiology 1 right now and I am taking the second parts winter quarter.

indecisiveRN · Nov 8, 2008

Hey, MICU, I guess we'll be in the same classes next quarter. I just met with my advisor yesterday and registered. Pegleg, I sent you an email a couple of days ago; not sure if you got it. In case you didn't, I work at Rush-Copley in Aurora. Are you taking classes next quarter? I'm really excited, but now starting to freak out a little, too.

Hey! Wow you kids are on top of things! I also received my acceptance letter a while back. I only have a couple classes done at this point, so winter and spring quarter I'll be taking phy and patho I (plus a couple others). I think Rush is the only program to which I applied where students complete this many credit hours prior to actually starting. Looks like I'll be busy! SO EXCITED - big move ahead, so I'll certainly be looking for tips on places to live...

To everyone who was accepted - do you mind sharing your numbers (gre/gpa/yrs exp)?

Thanks and many congrats to all!!!

indecisiveRN · Nov 20, 2008

Sure, Raas. My undergrad GPA overall is 3.13, nursing 3.43. I have 12 credits of graduate nursing classes with a 4.0. GRE 1360 (760 math, 600 verbal) 4.0 writing. I have 5 years ICU experience (6 when the program starts) in 3 different ICUs, all of which were general units (not divided into med, surg, neuro, cv, etc). I have ACLS, PALS, FCCS and CCRN. Let me know if you have any other questions!
