i wanted to apply to that program until i talked with them about all of the philosophy and religion requirements. i could be well into a nursing program before i'd be ready to apply for the A-BSN. i wish you well... did u apply to the program last year? it seems like i remember you anxiously waiting for a decision for something. maybe it was the MECN program at UCLA? at any rate... i'm applying to that as well. we shall see what happens :-)!

I didn't apply last year because of the Philosphy/Rel Studies requirements, but decided it was such a strong program that it would be a good idea this time around. I had already completed one Phil class from my previous degree and spent a 6-week summer session taking another. I'm finishing up a World Religion course now and that will be it. Yes, I find them to be irrelevant to the nursing curriculum, but they're interesting courses nonetheless. It also doesn't hurt to boost the GPA a bit more.

Good luck with the ADN, MSMC seems so strong in all of its nursing curriculum and clinical opportunities. Its kind of my 'backup' school to the BSN/MSN programs I'm applying to, but I'd still love to go there. Keep us posted!

I applied to the ADN program Spring 09 at MSMC..I'm waiting with fingers crossed til December. I took the TEAS earlier this month and scored in the 80's, wished it was higher, but what can you do?? Is this the first time you have applied NSFA08?? What are your thoughts in regards to GPA and Teas scores??

Thanks in advance for your response.

I am a soon to be Mount grad. I recently had three friends take the same test as you (I never took it because it's a new requirement) and they got scores ranging from 72-80 precent and all of them got in. They got in and started this fall.

Good Luck!
