MUSC ABSN Fall 2013

U.S.A. South Carolina

Published

I recently applied for priority admission to the Fall 2013 Accelerated Nursing Program at MUSC. I started this thread to makej contact with anyone else that may have applied priority or is planning on applying regular admission for Fall 2013. Anyone out there?

Thanks! I've spoke with the admissions officer earlier today and she told me around mid March. I hope I have a chance, my cum gpa is 3.53, science 3.7, and I haven't calculated my prerequisites because I don't know which ones they will use, but it should be around 3.7. I'm missing one course, which is a natural science for the 60 hrs prerequisites. I only have 12 hours of volunteer experience at Roper St. Francis Scrubs Mentor Program, however, I email admissions as I complete additional hours. I have past professors serve as my references, with one being biology professor, I hope this helps. Best of luck to you all!

I just spoke to someone from the admissions office and she told me to expect to hear back towards late March. I guess we all got different answers however i hope we all get the same response that we've been accpeted into the program. Good Luck!

I got an spoke with a person in admissions office and they said that there's close to 400 applicants that's being processed. Wow, that's scary!

sorry for awkward sentences, I'm at work:)

Wow... that is scary but it will be fine. Does anyone have second choices? I've already got into Trident so I'll be headed there if the verdict isnt good for MUSC.

@ jnlaw....Same here...Trident is my back-up plan..Did you apply for the accelerated track for the fall?

Just got the email about applying for financial aid- I wish they would send it AFTER you're accepted- I got excited for no reason.

Hopefully we will all hear something in the next 3-4 weeks!

@ Belle83 I havent as of yet because Im currently taking my last pre req and the advisor there told me i couldnt apply until all pre reqs were finish. They also have a merit program for students that have already been accepted to start a semester earlier. I'm going to apply to their Merit program

to see if i can start in the Fall instead of Jan 2014. When I finish this last prereq i may apply to the acclerated program if there is space still available. HAve you been accepted to Trident? I heard you say its your back up plan. It would be great to meet someone else who's been accepted.

@ml52789...i didnt receive a email about finacial aid...hope that doesnt mean what i think it means...:down:

Jnlaw- I have read they send it out to anyone who said on their application that they were interested in financial aid- it had nothing to do with being accepted/rejected. (They say that explicitly in the email)

I can't handle waiting much longer!

Sorry for the late response, but I've also got accepted to Trident Tech Nursing for Fall 2014, what a long wait. However, I'm doing the merit placement for Fall 2013, which will be available for applicants in early March. I believe they also have a merit placement in June, or July for Spring 2014 if you're not ready for the March merit placement. I did the pax-rn for admission in Jan., which is based on high school math, science, vocabulary, and reading, but it was pretty challenging for me. However, if you take it, you do not have to wait to finish prerequisites for admission to the nursing program, you can apply after passing this exam. The exam is given every Wednesday in the testing center at Trident Tech College.

I've completed most of my immunization, because hopefully I have a chance to get accepted for Trident's Fall 2013 nursing program. I have 12 points so far.
