Mt. Sac nursing program spring 2018

Published

Good evening everyone.

My name is Nicole. I made this forum to connect with potential Mt Sac nursing students who may be applying for Spring 2018 admission. I'm am applying and wanted to see everyone's status, and maybe gain some insight on what is to come. I have not taken my HESI yet; I am taking it August 17th. I am also working on finishing up a summer class to know where my gpa stands for points on the multi criteria. I am between 76 and 83 points depending on my HESI score, gpa, and work experience. Not sure what the cutt off will be for the Spring 2018 semester, but I'm hoping I will have enough points. Hope everyone is having an awesome night. Hope to hear from future students.

Thank you! What courses are included in the GPA for coursework? The multi-criteria screening lists the individual classes for the science GPA, but only says ENGL 1a and other college work. What other college work is included in the GPA?

Congratulations to everyone who got accepted! I just finished second semester and have a ton of free time on my hands, so I'd be be happy to answer any questions you guys may have about the program. Just shoot me a PM.

What are the prerequisites? What college coursework is included in the general ed GPA? I know the science one is Anatomy, Physiology, and Micro, but the general ed just states Engl 1a and other coursework.

The 3 sciences and engl 1a are the only prerequisites to apply to the program. the other coursework gpa is just that, your non-prereq classes + english. once you're in the program, youll have to take lifespan development and psych i think before moving on to the 2nd semester program.

Congratulations to all you! Have you finished the orientation? Can you share some information here? Do we have to have CPR before getting into the program? If so, does the CPR class in Mt Sac count? What else do we need to prepare besides the prerequisites? Thank you!

We just finished orientation this week. You don't have to have CPR before being accepted into the program. Mt. SAC only accepts CPR courses offered by the American Heart Association. I already had my card before being accepted because I volunteer at a hospital but I would recommend getting in touch with the nursing department. I think they would rather you wait until you are accepted that way your card will be good for the entire 2 years. My opinion just concentrate on doing well in your prerequisites and if you have time maybe volunteer. I am in a program called COPE Health Scholars and it has been a great experience. Good luck!

Thank you very much. I have finished all of the prerequisites, so I am thinking about doing something that might be helpful. Hope to see you guys in the fall.

Hi all,

Was wondering if any of you attended the math classes this week and if so what was covered? I'm planning on going but I just couldn't make it this week.

Thanks...
