I got into their weekday ABSN program for Summer 2022 after being waitlisted. I'm praying I could get in again for the weekend program so I can get tuition assistance from work.

Yes! That's one of the reasons why I'm applying for the weekend program, since I still need to work full time to get tuition assistance from work

Hello there.
I am considering applying to this program as I may also need to work while attending school. Is there anyone who has been through the program and can give any insight as to how the professors are, the lecture/clinical schedule?…Is the program manageable, etc.?

I believe it's how you make your schedule, im not sure how it's been for other students who did the weekend option. I know they offer online and in person classes

I understand but I'm wondering if classes are scheduled for all day on Fridays. I work M-F so I would have to work around that if I get accepted.

Hi, I have a question. Do you think I can get accepted to this program if I have a C+ in Micro and Chem but A's in all the other prerequisites? My GPA is still over a 3.0 (even with just my prereqs alone) and I was an honors student. I struggled a little with those two courses though. I took a few other biology courses that I received B's in, but I'm not sure if they look at any of your other courses. I also went from a failing student in high school to an honors student in college, and I'm an alumni of Mercy. I'm just curious if they still would give me a chance. I also posted on another forum as well, just to see if anyone can help me out LOL

Hey! I'm also an alum of Mercy College. Colleges are pretty strict when it comes to grade requirements. Mercy requires a B- in all prerequisites. I believe it used to be a C+.

I've personally heard an admissions counselor say that he won't even consider an application that doesn't fulfill requirements. (That was at a different school, however.) You can always check to make sure though. Calling the admissions office won't hurt just to be 100% sure.

It doesn't hurt to ask!! But if you want to retake the prereq MCPHS has online courses that can be completed in 16weeks and is self paced. I highly recommend the school if you want to fix your prereq and get a higher grade
