Mizzou's Sinclair School of Nursing Accelerated BSN 2010

Published

Has anyone else applied? Does anyone know what the application/interview process is like? Any information at all about the accelerated program would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Did you ever apply?

Yes.

They called me for an interview last week and it's scheduled for next Friday.

It's so hard to get information about people who have interviewed for the accelerated program, let alone gone through the program. Looks like I'll be the guinea pig for the interview portion, at least.

I'm thinking of applying to Mizzou next year if I don't get into a program in Minnesota. Do you know anything about the application process like how competitive it is, etc.?

I've heard that they're fairly competitive.. It seems that they look at everything, not just grades (my GPA is low by the standards of the board- over 3.0, but def. not a 3.6).

I've read that about 100 people apply, 80 are interviewed, and 40 are accepeted in the program. Today, while waiting to interview, when asked how many people they are interviewing, they told me over 100. I was interviewed by 2 faculty members, which asked me pretty basic questions.

Wetzoo-

Did you hear anything yet? I guess notifications have been sent out.

Nope, nothing.

How did you hear that they were sent out?

I'm enrolled in pharmacology through MU Direct and because you have to be admitted into the nursing program before they grant you permission, I figured that they'd drop me by now if I wasn't accepted? The scholarship dept. also e-mailed me today to let me know that I filled out the wrong scholarship application (I didn't see one specifically for accelerated nursing so I just filled out the transfer application), so they filled out a new one for me that was for the accelerated nursing program. I'm hoping that they wouldn't go through all of that trouble if I wasn't accepted.

This is me rambling and getting my hopes up. :rolleyes:
