MGHIHP Accelerated BSN May 2014

[FentyNP]

Hi everyone!

I'm applying to MGHIHP for the Fall 2014 (or summer I guess since it starts in May) semester because I think it looks like a great program with good reviews from past and current students. I submitted my application on the deadline, November 1st. The only problem right now is that only two of my three recommendations are in. I'm really upset about it because I don't want it to negatively reflect on me. I spoke to this woman multiple times to submit the letter and she promised that she would by the end of the day on November 1st (which was 50 minutes ago). It's officially late now :-( Does anyone have any advice about what I should do?? Do you think it'll affect my application? Any other applicants out there??

Hi everyone I am a bit late to this post but I am also waiting for my acceptance/rejection letter. The wait is driving me nuts! I was accepted in to Georgetown University's ABSN program but I decided that the cost wasn't worth the education. When I went down for "welcome day" the admissions committee advised the admitted that we would be charged for two school years making the grand total $120,000. I was under the impression that the tuition would only be one academic year/credit based (60000) but I was sorely mistaken.

Anyway, I was more interested in MGH to pursue my nursing career being in Boston and all. Hopefully we find out soon!

Stay calm and practice yoga.

Namaste.

Hey everyone!

Just found this and I'm glad to know I'm not the only one obsessively checking their email. I asked last week when they believe we would hear something and they replied "shortly" - which could mean anything. Hopefully we hear soon! Good luck to everyone!

Yesterday I called and they said "shortly" too This is driving me absolutely insane...

I keep checking this website to see if anyone has heard anything first, haha. I need some yoga for my nerves. I really hope we hear today.

I keep checking the online application page and the status is still just "submitted". I was wondering what all of you have heard about MGHIHP? I live on the west coast so I don't know anyone who's gone there. I'm concerned about a lot go the classes being online and I'd like to hear more about clinical placements.

I'm almost on the verge of having my boyfriend call and pretend to be someone else and ask for a specific timeline... But that might be a little too much... :)

You should do it! They'll have no way of knowing if you don't give them a name, even if they look at this blog. They won't recognize your username or anything

If they don't let us know today my email is going to take a restraining order out against me. :)

I just called a few min ago and the lady said 'youll hear back by the end of this week and it will be via email' ...this is torture, esp if you're so anxious to just so to be let down w some bad news.
