Hello!
I am starting this thread for those applying to the Summer 2021 ABSN program at Mercy College in the Bronx, NY. I actually was accepted into the program for Spring 2021 cohort, but I had to defer due to medical reasons. I am happy to assist anyone the best way I can through the admissions process as I have gone through it already. Can’t wait to start discussing about this with you all!

What makes you a good candidate? Why should they accept you versus someone else? Try to make it personal and don’t sound so cliché (for example saying something like “I want to be a nurse because I like helping people”). I based mine off of something personal and how I turned something negative into something positive and how that specially affected my decision to want to be a nurse. Just try to introduce yourself through paper and make it interesting ? I hope this was helpful and good luck!!
Ahhhh! CONGRATULATIONS! I can’t wait to meet you!
Congrats! You too ? sorry I didn’t mean to add to this thread I’m on my phone LOL

I graduated with a 3.5 GPA and all of my pre-reqs were between an A and B- range. The lowest grade I had was a C+ but that was because I did not like Chemistry LOL. I also have health care experience.

Hey! My undergrad GPA was a 2.9. Post-Bacc GPA was 3.86.
pre-reqs: A&P1: B+ , A&P2: A, Micro: B+, Chem1/2: A, Psych: B+
(I think if you've retaken a class they consider the better grade) And I have healthcare experience as well!

good luck to you all!!
and congrats to who got accepted already!
No rejection yet but I did call and ------------------- was very direct saying if you don’t get an email of acceptance or being waitlisted by March 15th, you can assume you didn’t get in. Good luck to everyone!
