Monroe College Accelerated Nursing

[iwanttobeanurse2020]

Hello future nurses! I applied for Monroe College's Accelerated program for the Winter 2022 cohort and was wondering if anyone heard back or if current students could describe their experiences. Best of luck to you all!

I applied to one other program but was rejected unfortunately. Good luck to you as well!

Hi, I applied to the Winter program. I also applied to Pace and Mercy. Monroe only accepts 40 students so it must be quite competitive as well. I heard that Pace accepts 80 but has 1000 applicants. I was hoping to get an interview with monroe but the interview is only to review your application not to truly get to know you. I heard they stopped doing those types of interviews because they now have too many applicants

I believe it. It has definitely gotten more competitive since COVID. I applied last month so was able to get the interview but I’m still nervous. Hope it goes well for you!

I had an interview today but it wasn’t to get to know me it was just to review my application. In your interview did they ask you questions to get to know you or questions regarding your desire to be a nurse? I was expecting that and they said they do not do those types of interviews anymore

I received a decision, I was accepted! Did anyone else get accepted for the Winter 2022 cohort?

I didn't receive a decision yet. When did you apply if you don't mind me asking?

Congratulations! You must be so excited!  & They haven’t reached a decision with my application yet.
