I'm a pre-nursing student in Charleston, SC hoping to apply for Medical University of South Carolina's Accelerated BSN program for the spring of 2017.
I'm currently completing the pre-requisites at College of Charleston, which doesn't have it's own nursing program.
I'm going to be applying with around 75 hours including the 60 hours of pre-reqs, and expect to have a GPA of about 3.8.
I'm 19, and I'm planning to apply this summer at the end of my sophomore year, but I'm worried about my chances without a previous degree and some experience working in healthcare. I'll have a good number of hospital volunteer hours, but that's it.
Is there anyone who's currently in the program right now, or has a applied before? What do you think my chances of getting in with my expected GPA and just the pre-reqs are?
I called Marndi Long a few times today but got no answer. Maybe someone else can try to get through. I did call the admissions office and spoke to someone. She told me the letters would come out about 8 weeks from the deadline date... the same thing the website tells us.
Could somebody local look up the information on campus?
I called the main office number on Friday, she said the hurricane set them back (obviously) and we probably shouldn't expect to hear anything before the 26th.
I checked the application tracker yesterday at work and there were not any changes. I'll keep checking it and post any updates when there are changes. When you said the "26th" do you mean October or November?
I'm wondering if the committee is meeting today and letters will get mailed out tonight or tomorrow? That would put us around the 26th! We are getting so close to knowing!

I think the person of contact is Mardi Long, and this is the number that I have for her 843-792-6683.
