NEU Direct Entry Online?

[cwrn1]

Hello,

I was browsing the Northeastern University website and saw there is a new Direct Entry (Online) BSN/MSN program that is located out of the Burlington campus. They don't require the GRE's for this program, but they do for their regular Direct Entry. When I asked why, they simply said it wasn't required at this time, but may be in the future. Has anyone heard of this "online" program or know anyone who has done it?

Adamamber1- my interview was quick too, about 15 minutes. I was asked why nursing, northeastern and a couple of similar questions. Then I was given some scenarios, which sort of threw me off. I just hope we hear a decision soon because the wait is killing me!

adamaber1- interview I would say my interview was about 20 minutes not that long either. I wasn't given any scenarios, basically I did all the talking .

Thanks Itcwall! I actually met up with an admissions advisor for this program the other day and I learned so much about it. The flexibility of the online classes would be great for someone who has to commute like me. I think this is going to be my first choice! I'm really excited to hear what you all have to say about it once you start =)

Adamamber1- I received my acceptance today!

cm401, thats great!! Congrats...did they call you or send a letter? Now Im really dying

[Cm401]

Thank you adamamber1! I received a call. I'm sure you'll hear back soon. Maybe the person that interviewed you is just taking longer to get back to admissions.

CM401-Maybe she is taking a bit longer...I'm just so nervous that my living out of state will make them uncomfortable. I know they prefer people to live semi close. Ok, I really need to stop thinking about all the different scenarios and just wait...thanks for letting me know how it went.

congrats CM401. I' am starting in the fall as well. Did they already give you the dates for orientation and prep day.

Aug 3 and Aug 27

Admamaber I' am keeping my fingers crossed for you :-)

[Cm401]

Adamamber1- Keep us posted! ltcwall- thank you! Yes I was given those 2 dates. Have you completed your application for financial aid? I just received my Bachelors so I have those loans to pay off . Do you know if the school offers much in scholarships?

[ltcwall]

Yes I completed my app for financial aid but I haven't heard anything yet? My admissions rep said i should hear late june or early july. I looked on there website they have a few scholarships. Yea I'm a little nervous about taking out anymore loans . Are you from Boston ?

[Cm401]

I'm from Providence. How about you? I've been looking at some loan repayment and health service corps programs. You should look into those.
