   Hi!! They do offer the chance to defer. I know a lot of students deferred last year due to COVID. And then if I can give anyone else any advice right now... start applying for...

   I just checked gmail and looks like I emailed her at the end of March! I'd definitely wait at least until the admitted students' decision

   Peaches52 replied to neurojane's topic in School, College Programs

   @amanda12 I was in fact admitted off the waitlist! I found out in mid-April. I know another person admitted in May (so.... very notice). It DOES happen, especially once admitted students see the...

   Another alum here (graduated from the ABSN program in December, planning on working as an RN for a bit before heading back for my MSN), happy to answer questions! I do know that Penn just announced...

5. UPENN ABSN Program, is it worth it?

   Peaches52 replied to keche126's topic in School, College Programs

   This is late but maybe it'll help future people--Penn's program is better than Jefferson's. But unless you come from money or get significant financial aid, then no ABSN program is worth what Penn...

   Peaches52 replied to neurojane's topic in School, College Programs

   I'll be honest-- your first Summer will be HARD. Do you have a partner or access to childcare? I was studying round-the-clock that first Summer. After that Summer, it depends on the students. Some...

   Peaches52 replied to neurojane's topic in School, College Programs

   Do not count on much for financial aid. The full rides do not count for second-degree students. I believe (but am not sure) that I got more grants than many in my class, and my total still came out to...

   Peaches52 replied to neurojane's topic in School, College Programs

   Thanks! I spoke a little about my background and the program in another post (tl;Dr: I didn’t have a health background, and the program was great in some ways and disappointing in others, and...

   Peaches52 replied to neurojane's topic in School, College Programs

   I’ll try to be honest and open and answer all your questions! What were your stats prior to entering the program? (prior degree in?, cum GPA, healthcare experience?) Prior degree in...

11. UPENN BSN MSN 2020

    Peaches52 replied to Psychmeout2's topic in School, College Programs

    @kkelly532 First semester (Summer) is definitely intense-- practically 9-5 for 8 weeks. I don't know anyone who worked (but I have no doubt that a few did). The two most time-intensive classes were...

12. UPENN BSN MSN 2020

    Peaches52 replied to Psychmeout2's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey folks! I’m a current ABSN student. I’m currently on Spring break so I have some free time. Feel free to ask me questions about my experience! I remember that talking to students really helped...

13. 2019 UPENN BSN/MSN

    Peaches52 replied to Syra007's topic in School, College Programs

    Your experience is pretty typical. Now that I’m here, I’ve found that I have to go to administrators’ offices to get a response to anything. It’s... pretty annoying, considering the amount of...

    Peaches52 replied to md5628's topic in School, College Programs

    I eventually got the insulting email asking me to apply to their Charlotte program. I started at Penn this summer, so no sweat off my back, but I told them that their admissions process doesn’t...

    Peaches52 replied to Syra007's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi all, I just got in off the waitlist (for BSN-MSN FNP). I currently have to decide between Penn and another school and would love to have more information. Is there anyone who went to the admitted...
