MERCY COLLEGE NY ABSN FALL 2021

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hello, I am currently enrolled at Mercy college ( BS PSYCH) upon completion I hope to apply to the accelerated nursing program. I contacted the school for more information, they recently told me applications for the Summer program are due march 1st 2021 (I graduate in may) which means for the Summer I will be deferred until later semesters if accepted anyway.

I am wondering if anyone have any details into the program? Looking to apply in the near future ect. 

My pre requisite grades are not the best but I hope I get in. 

GRADES 

A&P I ....... A

A&P II....... B 

MICRO......B+

DEV. PSYCH ......B+

CHEM......C+ ( I struggled terribly with this course and it has been my lowest science grade ) 

STATS.....A-

NUTRITION.....A- 

because this is my first semester at mercy, I don't have a current GPA but I hope it makes the mark....

For the unofficial transcript, can you just download as pdf from CUNY FIRST and add it in document section & submitted and later have the official transcript send to them? Because I am still taking a pre-req course microbio and I will have to wait until this semester ends to get a grade.

Also I am confused to where we are supposed to add recommendation in Common App. For other school, I see recommendation Tab where they request the recommenders on behalf of us but I don't see that option available for Mercy?

And lastly, I was confused with the total credit hours and Quality points asked  in GPA section in common app. Can someone please explain it to me?

 

The school website application site has the option, it is so  much easier, I was also struggling with Common App. On the school applications site, you can request the individuals (no more than 2) fill out the recommendation by sending it to them via their email. It will prompt you, very easy rather than the Common App.

Yea that's how I did it.

I didn't apply via the Common App. I got confused when I started so I just went to the Mercy site and applied straight from there. I would recommend doing it there.

Also just wanted to confirm, we still got a chance if we still taking a pre req course? I asked someone in the admission department and they said we need to submit all the grades and transcript before April in the application for fall semester. But since I am still taking Microbio I will only get my grades around the end of this sem like late May so. I will greatly appreciate if someone can give me suggestion and info. on this?

I am taking my Micro at QCC, last one as well.  Fingers crossed they take us all in. I hear there is a sever shortage of nurses in the USA and they are really pulling to help people graduate.

Yeah 

Praying we will all get into this program. Thank you so much. ? 

So you are also just sending the unofficial transcript to the school or can we submit ourselves in the document and later send the official transcript from our school to Mercy??

That's so good to hear. I was hearing that as well but then I also heard so many people want to be nurses now. I wasn't sure how true that was because I thought the opposite LOL
