Published

Hey everyone! 

I recently got accepted to Marian University ABSN in Nashville, Tennessee. I wanted to get people's thoughts? Worries? Also, what are people doing about housing?

I’m in the middle of completing my application for Nashville. What made you choose Marian?

I've always wanted to live in Nashville in general, but what caught my interest is their hybrid learning course, NCLEX passing rate, and they also use holistic approaches.

What about you?

Are officially in? Also, it sounds like you are relocating. What are you doing about housing? Im freaking out about 60k

I am! So, I went the expensive route and got this apartment in a nice neighborhood. I am new to the area and rather be safe than sorry. I also have two cats and wanted to get a place comfortable for them as well. The money does stress me out, but I'm trying to not let it. My ex boyfriend is a nurse and when he graduated he had 80k in debt from his school. He's now been a nurse for a little over a year and is almost done paying off his loans, but he was very frugal and working a lot of overtime. So that brought me some comfort that it's doable if you're smart at managing your money

Congratulations! I’m finishing up application. Oh, I’m looking into luxury apartments for safety and convenience since I also want to feel safe. What was your previous degree in? Are you looking into scholarships?

Hi!

I’ve been speaking with an admissions counselor from Marian and have been accepted for the May 2022 cohort pending the completion of Chemistry. Is anyone in the program and could share their experiences?

Janess - Thank you! Yeah I currently live in Bellevue and love it but it is more costly! My previous was in Cellular Molecular Biology, which has really helped me in Pathophysiology! I am not and probably won't but I do have a part time job.

Hey Sierra, 

The program was a bit disorganized in the beginning but a lot of ABSN programs are. I've been enjoying the program and haven't had any issues with it. It is very fast pace but your professors are absolutely great and are always open to answering any questions. I really like the schedule we're only in person three days out of the week. What has helped me a lot so far is being positive and embracing every assignment given. There is a lot do every week, but don't over think the assignments or get trapped in a group that is constantly complaining. 

Let me know if you have any specific questions! I'm happy to answer!

Hello Everyone,

I just got off the phone with an admissions counselor and went over all the details about their Accelerated BSN program in Nashville. So far, all the information I’ve read in this thread matches what was mentioned.

But I was curious about the accreditation. Apparently, it is accredited by The Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association, but I’m not sure if that is acknowledged by even higher learning institutions in California… does anyone know if that accreditation is functional or adopted by California organizations at all?

Thanks!!

How's your life at Marian's Nashville Compus? I just got accepted. I saw some bad reviews about their ABSN program from both Nashville and Indianapolis. It will be appreciated to hear about your story of life in Marian's ABSN program.

Thank you ?

Hello! I am projected to start the program in August 2024 at the Nashville Campus pending completion of one prerequisite. I read that I should expect to report three days a week. Can anyone tell me if it is primarily the same 3 days, if so, which days of the week?
