Augusta U- MSN/CNL- Fall 2018 Entry

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

I don't see a group yet started for admission to the Fall 2018's Augusta U MSN/CNL program. I have read through the forum of the Fall 2017 group and it seems to have been very informative!

I am excited once this group starts getting some members, so we can discuss the process (and adventure?!) of applying and finishing pre-reqs!

I am a second career applicant who works full time as an office assistant to two MDs and 1 BSN now. I have previously been a CNA and worked as a PCT in a small rural hospital on the med/surg floor, but then went on to get a BA in English from UGA. After having been an assistant for 4 years and out of school for quite a few more, I am excited about starting this RN program and still question why I didn't do this from the beginning :-) Oh well, I feel I have a lot of real world experience now and I am a much better learner then before! I have four pre-reqs left. A&P 1 and 2, Microbiology, and Human Development. I am planning on trying to CLEP the Human Development course this fall. Currently in the waiting process for acceptance into the Perimeter Campus of Georgia State University to start the other courses.

Looking forward to talking with all of you!

Oh wow that is really crazy. I submitted my application yesterday 9/25 and mine is already being verified. So, I'm not sure what is going on. Yes, my GPA came out be exactly what I expected but they do not round. So, if it is 3.456 it is a 3.45. I will keep yo updated once mine has finished being verified. Sorry it has been taking that long. Turnaround time on their website is two weeks.

That is really nice you won't believe that am still waiting for the verification this is really so annoying I applied on 9/7 and am still waiting. Well I plan on giving them a call today but they would not let you talk to their supervisor. I am so sure you are in good shape now.. let me know when you are called for the interview am sure that is what is next. Thanks for the update!

Just to encourage anyone out there that may have struggled as I did a few weeks ago. I recently commented of my struggles of passing the GRE exam. I have always been a terrible test taker ..well standardized test taker. I attempted the GRE twice and received a 289 on each one. Before getting totally discouraged, I attempted the MAT test. Knowing it would be difficult, I purchased the barron's pdf mat prep book, purchased all three pearson test available on the MAT official website, and downloaded/purchased pocketprep MAT prep app. But most importantly, I PRAYED diligently. I believe I studied for a total of two weeks and took the exam today. Needless to say, I scored a 410 on the MAT exam. I am super excited to proceed with my application and hope to encourage others to not give up!

This is really inspiring am sure you would be more at peace. Congratulations!!

Hi everyone! My name is Heather. My overall GPA is 3.42. I have yet to take the GRE, I'm studying pretty hard for it! Any advice for taking the GRE? I have the study book.

I have filled out most of the application and have received 4 references. I am looking forward to getting to know y'all!

So, I submitted my application 9/24 and on 9/29 my application was verified. I'm sooooo excited. Best of luck to everyone. When inputting your your coursework pay close attention to how it specifies for you to put it in. Best of luck to everyone!!! We got this y'all. I hope to see each and every one of you on the other side. Don't hesitate to ask me any questions. This is my second time applying.

Hi all! I am applying to the CNL program for 2018 entry at the Athens location. I submitted my info to nursingCAS on 9/27, verified on 9/29, and I received an email today from Augusta U that they are reviewing my application. Anyone else's application under review yet? From the looks of last years thread, there was at least one set of interviews mid October.

I have a BSW and an MA in Nonprofit Leadership

Avg GPA for undergrad and grad is 3.87, GRE 302

Congratulations if they are reviewing your application then you should be good. Do they usually use your graduate GPA towards the program? What is your undergraduate GPA? I also noticed some interviews where done mid October so we would see what happens after the review. Mine just got verified few minutes ago.

Weird- I swear I already responded to this but it didn't show up. If it shows up twice, my bad!

I'm not sure if they include graduate grades. NursingCAS included them in my overall GPA calculation, so I would guess so? I can't imagine why not. My undergrad GPA is 3.82. And I don't think it matters but my pre-req GPA is 4.0.

Hopefully we get some interviews happening in here this month!! :D

Hello Everyone. I hope those of you who have submitted your application are excited as I am. From looking back in last year's chat. It seems like emails inviting for interviews were sent around the third week of August. The first one I am seeing from the chat is October 18 an email was sent. I wish and pray everyone luck!!!
