That's nice to know... did she mentions what you should go over before the program if you don't mind me asking ?

Thank you so much for sharing. I am applying for the fall 2023. Today I emailed the admissions office to see if they can accept my A&P I because on schools website it requires B- above on all prerequisites but I only have C+. I was told that there isn't any exception to be offered. But it seems like the school have admitted student who has one prereq below B-. I am wondering if there is still possibility for me to get admitted... 

 

Hi I have another quick question. It states on their website that they'll accept chemistry or genetics, but only chemistry in the fall, which is sort of weird. I took genetics and received a B- in it, and a C+ in chem. Although they're saying they won't accept genetics in the fall, do you think showing my grade for it will help my chances?

I think you should still apply for it as you never know. My chemistry grade wasn't the best and I don't think it average to what they asked. But I would say to have a good personal statement and LOR. Good luck!!

I would say give it a try. What did you receive in A&P ll? I'm only asking because it doesn't even say anything about A&P l on their website. So, I think they care more about A&P ll. I believe it depends on the actual class, because I've seen students get accepted with a C+, but I got a call the other day saying that I had to retake Chem and Micro because I received C+'s in both courses, although I took Genetics and received a really good grade (they told me they were no longer accepting it for Fall), my GPA was still over a 3.0 (even my prereq grade alone), and I am an honors student, on top of being an alumni. So, I really think it just depends on the actual course you received the C+ in. You never know though; it doesn't hurt to try. One advise I can definitely give, is never apply to just one school alone, because some schools look at the effort you've truly put in. One school might care more about your overall work (meaning other science courses you might have taken), than just looking at prerequisites. 

I just got accepted Into the accelerated program for Summer 2023. I would love to connect with a junior or senior to get more info.  And good luck everyone. 

Has anyone heard anything after submitting their deposit? Or received their financial aid award yet? Also does anyone know when classes start and if we have clinical a during the weekends? 

Does anyone know if the ABSN program is offered aboard?
