NJCU FastTrack BSN Program Admission Requirements

Published

I'm getting ready to apply to the 2011 FastTrack BSN Program at New Jersey City University. I was wondering what standards people had that were accepted to the program in the past. I know it says 3.0 GPA on a 4.0 Scale (preferred but NOT required) Have people been accepted to this program with a lower GPA? If so, what was it? And what else did you have to excel on in order to get into the program?

I have received an email since last month. Maybe you need to give them a call.

Yeah I have, but lily0602 was saying on Friday she hadn't received it, so I was just checking to see if she was able to figure that out.

I have been calling them. Everytime they tell me that they are still putting people into the system. I also emailed them and they said i need to be patient because they received about 200 appliciants. But then i read on here that everyone said they told them it waqs over 350...so i dont really know. I just hope everything is ok :l

Thank you. I am wondering why I don't see any file or information when I login to the system....I got the email just few minutes ago. lol

Okay well since they're just updating your information now it seems, hopefully you will get an email soon that says your documents have been uploaded. Did you send your entire application at the same time?

This Friday it will have only been three weeks. They said 4-6 weeks after the end of the deadline. I'm going to assume it will be more towards 6 weeks.

Hi fellow nursing hopefuls,

NJCU is at least going to take another month to evaluate applications. I spoke with the girl at the school and she told me that they were going to wait 2 weeks past May 20th to let missing documents trickle in. As of Monday of last week, she told me she had piles and piles of papers on her desk and that documents are still being uploaded to the system. Based upon this I think that we will not hear anything until at least the second or third week in July. They sound short staffed, and it is the summer. I would LOVE to know by the beginning of July but unless they get their act together I think its going to be later.

Does anyone know about the safety of the campus in JC? Where do students park? What is a typical week schedule look like? I know it's a lot of work but I am trying to see how many days I will need to commute to Jersey City,

Good luck all,

kampenny
