NAU Accelerated BSN Program 2016

[Altius]

Hi all -

I didn't see a thread for this program for the upcoming summer 2016 start date, so I thought I would start one. Please let me know if there is already a thread on this and I will have this deleted.

Who else is applying? I know last year was very competitive, so I doubt this year will be any different. I just took the Kaplan Admissions Exam and have finished all my prerequisite coursework, so I'm hoping for the best. Good luck to everyone!

Looks like contracts have been signed, and I'm currently the #2 alternate. It's kind of a tough situation that puts me in no-man's-land for now. Keeping my fingers crossed that if spots are gonna open up, it happens sooner than later.

Hi Everyone, I'm not sure if anyone looks at this anymore (or gets notifications) but I am in a quandary. I have been accepted into the ABSN program for this upcoming summer term, and I am committed to going, but I was just accepted to a very highly ranked university (which is 20k more). What I want to know is this: would the students in the program now recommend it? Do you feel supported by the faculty? Do you feel like it is a well organized program and that you will be prepared to become a nurse? I live out of state and haven't been able to visit it yet, but I will in 3 weeks. I am mainly set on going because I like the town and I have heard one recommendation by an old acquaintance. The other school I know has very qualified faculty, a nurses without borders organization associated with it, and has a very high NCLEX pass rate. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Hi mountainsandmangos, I am really trying to reach out to anyone who has gone to the NAU accelerated program. I am trying to see what students feel about it. I don't know if you'll see this, but if you do I'd love to hear if you thought it was a good program and prepared you well enough!
