Yay, I got my acceptance! I'm wondering where everyone is planning on living? I know there are quite a few dorms on campus but I really don't want to live with undergrads (no offense)! It looks like there are a ton of apartments in the surrounding areas as well. I will have to call the housing office/ take a tour of the campus soon!!!

Congratulations to everybody who got accepted to the BSN program for January 2016. I got some info on the on-campus housing but I am not really interested in living on campus. I live in Marlborough right now and honestly the drive to Worcester isn't that bad from here, its only about 20 to 25 mins.

Have you officially accepted and paid the deposit..? I think it was after that that I got a bunch more stuff... congrats!

preetikpatel1, BSN · Oct 26, 2015

Yeah I paid the deposit online about a month ago. I think that's all we had to do for official acceptance..right? I haven't received anything else yet...what other information did you receive ?

Hmm, I'm trying to remember now... (it was Jul '14 haha); I think there may have been an online form with the deposit but not sure... you're starting in the spring? I'd shoot the admissions office an email to ask if there's anything else they need - you could also ask if there's a cohort facebook group that the admissions office sets up (they did that for us).

I think the major big things we did right off the bat were scrubs fitting/ordering, credentialing (immunizations/TB tests, etc etc). But it was quite close to the start date that it all came together :)

Yeah I am starting in Spring 2016. when i paid the online deposit, i did fill out some information that they asked and that was it. i will shoot an email to the admissions office and see what they say. thanks for your help

Good luck, let me know if I can help more. My advice while you're waiting is to get TB tested if you haven't in the last 2 years, and get together your Hep B, flu shot records etc!

Thanks CiaMia for all your help.

Hi everyone! I'm super excited to be starting in about 6 weeks! I was wondering where everyone is planning on living! I am considering a lease for the Main Street "lofts" aka studios, since it's really close to classes. Is anyone else planning on living there, or know anyone that has/ is living there? Also, taking out these private loans sucks! I'm pretty sure I'm going to use Citizens bank for some loans. Has anyone had success with other banks etc?

Has anyone gotten the health form to be completed ? I got it a couple of weeks ago and it said in the letter they will email us the website where we have to upload the completed health form but I haven't gotten any email as of yet !
