MSMC ABSN Summer 2012

Published

Hey everyone,

Is anyone applying to Mount St. Mary's ABSN program for Spring 2012? I was thinking about applying to the ADN program, but I talked with one of the advisors on the Doheny campus and she told me to look into the ABSN program since I already have a bachelor's degree. However, I'm a little concerned with my low GPA that I've received from my undergraduate bachelor's degree. She told me to keep taking classes to raise my GPA, but I have way too many credits from my last degree and I don't think it'll go up any higher no matter how many classes I take. I currently have A's & B's in my prereq's...

Is anyone in the same situation as I am??? Or for any of those that got into the ABSN program have a low cumulative GPA?

Does anyone know where to take a Bioethics course besides Taylor University & MSMC?

Specializes in Pediatrics.

Those are the only classes that MSMC will accept. All the other ones they presented at their info session are no longer being offered.

Really? I know that UCLA offered Phil 155 (Medical Ethics) in summer 2011. Hopefully, they have that class again. Taylor U. is so expensive...

Specializes in Pediatrics.

Just be sure it is upper division and check with MSMC BEFORE you sign up. However, this does not guarantee anything, as a few people in my class got the approval from the department and then just before graduation, found out their bioethics class didn´t count. They had to take the class within a given amount of time after graduation to get their degree.

Oh I see, okay, thanks for letting me know :) I saw the articulation agreements on the ABSN nursing session info on the Powerpoint and I'm pretty sure they recommend Taylor U., UCLA, and/or LMU.

Anyone else applied to MSMC's ABSN Summer 2012 cohort?????

Hi hdkim and everyone, I applied for MSMC's ABSN for summer 2012. I got an email yesterday to schedule an interview in the next 1.5-2 weeks. Has anyone else heard anything?

Hi orangepeels, I scheduled an interview as well.

Hello all!

Hope everyone's interviews went well, had mine on Tuesday!

Getting anxious for a letter :)

I think we will find out very soon, like within the next week or so.. Crossing fingers!

Just got my letter! I'm in! Anyone else out there?

HI everyone!!! I interviewed with MSMC on January 26 and haven't received my letter in the mail, but I checked my status on the web portal this past Friday night because I heard they update the portal before you receive your letter....the portal said ACCEPTED!!! (when I checked earlier that day it didn't) So I am hoping that the portal is correct and I will receive my letter in the next day or two!!! If all is true, can't wait to meet all of you!!
