MGH Accelerated BSN Spring 2014

U.S.A. Massachusetts

Published

Hello,

I am new to this forum. I am starting my application for MGH accelerated BSN for Spring 2014. Has anyone applied or planning on applying? Any alumni, what has been your experience so far?

I have a BS and MBA. I work as a clinical research specialist at a hospital. I took A&P I and nutrition. I am taking micro lab (summer 2013) and A&P II in fall 2013. I have taken other pre requites already.

Is the MGH program better than UMASS/MCPHS/Curry? MGH ($59K) is expensive than UMASS ($26K), am I looking at the right tuition??

I currently live in Newton, MA. Do you think that is too far of a commute? I am hearing that everyone lives in Sommerville/Cambridge but I don't think it's possible for me to move again.

I'm going to be commuting from almost rhode island so I think you'll be fine. I mean its going to suck but its doable. I would see if you can do some sort of mbta transportation so that you don't have to try to find parking there because there isnt much at all

Hi Everyone,

I heard back from admission on August 31st and I was accepted into the program. So, you should be hearing back any day now.

Hi everyone! Congratulations to all of you that got into the program. I submitted my application for fall 2014 yesterday, November 1st. That was the deadline but the only problem is only two of my three recommendations are in. I was in contact with my third recommender multiple times over the past month and she swore up and down she would get it in on time but now it's an hour into November 2nd and still nothing. I'm so upset and I wanted to know if any of you experienced anything similar or know if this will negatively affect my application. Thanks guys!!

Hey Toldoll sorry didn't get back sooner hope everything is going OK..

Same thing happened to me and it was so nerve racking.MGH admissions

is so helpful..They told me that as long as the material was there for the

review process it would be included.One of mine was late by a couple of days.

I still got accepted so hang in there.

Hi!! I'm from California and just got into the MGH ABSN program for Summer '16, and I am wondering if you ended up making the move to attend MGH in the Spring of 2014? If you did, were you happy with your experience there? Any and all info about the program would be very much appreciated!!!
