EKU ADN Fall 2016

littlehelpinghands · Mar 31, 2016

Have you thought about enrolling into a accelerated nursing program? Where you could get your BSN in 18-22 months. This will probably be your best option since you will have your Bachelor's Degree. I am in the same situation. I graduated last year with a Bachelor's and my next plan is an accelerated nursing program.

This isn't an option for me. I would be required to take two more pre-reqs for the second degree BSN program at UK and EKU's second degree is extremely competitive. I have applied but would rather go the ADN route because I am more likely to get in right away instead of finishing pre-reqs for another year and hoping I get into UK and/or EKU. The goal is to get my ADN, work at UK where they will pay for my BSN and enroll in an RN-BSN program immediately after passing the NCLEX.

I applied to the ADN program for Fall 2016 ! :) I was told that the acceptance letters would be mailed out before the first week of April & here we are. im SOOOO anxious to know its killing me! i wonder if there is a way we could see through EKU Direct?

Yay! I was told the same as well. I don't know if there is a way to tell until we accept our spot in the program but good luck! Hopefully we find out soon :)

Sounds like a good plan! Good luck to both of you.

Graduated from there last year, it's a great program! Nothing showed up on eku direct until after I got my letter though. Good luck to you!

thank you for the wishes of luck ! i hope and pray every day that I am accepted ! :) you know how they do the point thing to determine acceptance right ? what were the point totals for you guys if you dont mind me asking ? I was told by my advisor that 40-50 point were goal ..

I had somewhere around 74 points. The website says that if admission becomes competitive then they would use the point system but since they extended the deadline to submit applications, I think they needed more students to apply. I know someone who just graduated the program and she said as long as you meet minimum requirements and didn't fail any pre-reqs you should be good to go.

that sounds great ! all requirements met & i havent failed any pre-reqs .. i say Im in pretty good shape . seeing that they had to extend the deadline is a major plus as well! thanks for the info :)
