Lehman College 2018 Fall Generic BSN/ABSN applicants!

Published

Hello, everyone applying to Lehman's BSN/ABSN programs for Fall 2018!

I am currently working on my application and will very soon take HESI. I know application period does not start until January 1, but I thought I would create a thread so we could get in touch and support each other on the way to (keeping fingers crossed!) being accepted!

If they are going by GPA why have I still not received my acceptance?

I feel like everyone in the universe is being put out of their misery except for me.

I'm right there with you. I have a 4.0 and high HESI stats I don't know why I haven't geard anything yet. It makes no sense.

Thanks. But I'm going to head over in a few mins I'll let everyone know if there is any updates.

Since you went in did they give you any info on the status of your application?

Trust me I understand the frustration. But that is what they are telling me that they are going by. She checked if my name was in the pile for today and it wasn't. So it's just a waiting game. Though they go by gpa, the hesi score is taken into the next section to make the decision. And I was told a lot of ppl applied this year. Another note if you applied for accelerated only 30 ppl are getting in. And if you had taken any sciences in the past and retook it to get a better grade they do not take that into consideration. They use your first science grades.

Thanks for the update. Sounds like it wouldn't help to go in and patience is my best friend right now. Thanks and good luck!

So I guess what they mean by "they're going by GPA" is that they're accepting people based on their GPAs first and then their hesi scores second. The order people receive their acceptances seems to be totally random.

30 students to the accelerated program? 6 more than last year. Not bad.

Who did you email? And what exactly did you inquire?

I emailed the nursing department asking if there were any problems with my application. Judging by the timing of my acceptance email the email I sent had absolutely nothing to do with me receiving my acceptance. It literally arrived seconds later.
