   Wow, they are taking their time. I heard back from the other school I applied to a week and a half after the application due date.

8. GWU Accelerated BSN Fall 2018

   karyo replied to maryemily02's topic in School Programs

   Good luck! I had a 3.5 overall and 4.0 prereq GPA. In addition to that I had more than 200 volunteer hours and almost 30 hours of clinical observation (shadowing). I think that helped, because otherwise, I don't have almost any experience working in ...

   The GW website just says 3.0 is the "preferred" GPA. Looks like they might consider applicants with a lower GPA. It probably depends on the strength of the rest of your application. You can always try applying and see what happens!

    Me too!! At least I know I got into the only other school I applied to. But I need to plan a visit to whichever schools I'm admitted to so I can figure out where I want to go. And I can't start planning these visits till I know where I'm accepted! I ...

    I just woke up and sleepily checked my email and saw an email from GW Nursing. I was accepted!!! I turned my application in at the 1/15 deadline, so I didn't think I'd get a reply so soon! When I called a couple months ago, they told me it would take...

    When I called for information a couple months ago, they said decisions would be made within 8 weeks of the deadline. I'm also out-of-state, but I don't know the stats on acceptance numbers.
