Villanova University- May 2010

BibaBibaa · Apr 25, 2009

Hi, you got in already? When did you apply? I'm going to apply but I thought that the application process for the BSNExpress starts in July. How many prerequisites do you have done?

Hi there,

I originally applied to the alternative sequence accelerated option that begins in the fall of 2009 that is two years. I'm finishing up my bachelors of science and am graduating in two weeks! I recently received an email offering for me to do the one year May 2010 BSNExpress program, which I gladly accepted! I just received the official letter in the mail last week. I have taken almost all of my prerequisite courses and still need to complete pathophysiology and 6 credits of religion/theology. I'll probably take all of them at one of the local community colleges.

Let me know if you have any more questions!

Hi andreiasab!

Thanks for your kind words! :) My GPA is about a 3.2 (averaging my GPA from university and community college classes). I think you are on the right track with having your transcripts reviewed. The staff were extremely helpful when I was applying.

Let me know how the transcript review goes. Good luck! :nurse:

hey again...i sent in my preliminary transcript last night and this afternoon i recieved an email about how happy they are that i am choosing villanova as a BSN and they look forward for my application....does that mean that they gave me the green light to apply??....next week im mailing my full application and transcript...

I don't want to jump to conclusions but yes, I think you can go ahead and apply. They let me know which classes I need to take before beginning the program after they accepted me. So, if for some reason you need to retake a class or have to complete prerequisites, they will still accept you as long as you complete the classes before you start the program in May.

Fingers crossed for you!

Hey all....i am new to this forum but I am strongly considering Villanova's alternate curriculum BSN program and was reading that you guys had to send in your transcripts for review??? does everyone need to do that before they apply?? I would be applying for fall 2010...

Also, do you know what a competitive GPA would be for their program? I am so nervous and can't stop stressing out about applying to nursing schools but Villanova is my first choice and I want to know if I have a realistic shot at getting accepted....please write back as soon as you can. Thanks in advance

Hi all,

I recently applied to Nova's BSNExpress program and had my interview last week. Has anyone else interviewed yet? I am very eager to hear whether or not I have been accepted, but they said I would not hear until mid October at the earliest
