I hope all are well. I wanted to see if anyone has applied to LaSalle's Fall 2017 Achieve Program at the Main Campus in Philadelphia?
I have taken all the prerequisites and have also taken the NLN exam with an overall score of 140 ( 85% Verbal, 86 % Math, 91% Science) The study guide was really helpful. I have a science GPA of 4.0 and overall GPA 3.5. I received a favorable admission letter in August 2016 since I completed my application and all supplemental information. I think if I am not mistaken, it appears that LaSalle does not even review the application until March 1 regardless if you have all the materials or not. The next step appears to be application review/interview. I think if I understood correctly from the admissions counselor, if you already have a Bachelor's degree you are waived from several of the courses that are required for the liberal arts curriculum, such as the second requirements of religion and philosophy at the 200 level, world history, and communications courses.
Is there anyone else who has applied/interested in applying? Can anyone who is in the program shed some light on the program and let me know if you think I have a chance. Additionally, can anyone let me know if LaSalle reviews applications earlier than the deadline since I completed everything in August 2016?
Best of luck to all that are applying. This program looks awesome and I really hope to start it, as I will be working full time!
When do you guys think we will be receiving our admissions letters? I thought she said they were meeting the last week of March/ first of April, so hopefully they come in the mail soon. Has anyone received one yet?
Can you believe classes start in about 2 months? It is right around the corner.
I think that we will be officially registered for our first semester soon. I've been working on the CastleBranch documentation. It's A LOT of stuff, not to mention kind of pricey to do!
Hey! Did they tell you how to get started with this stuff and what to do... I haven't really received any communication other than financial aid information...
