Sorry, it’s been a few months so can’t remember exactly, but it’s in there somewhere with the admit checklist.

Yep same thing happened to me, forget how I found the digital acceptance letter, sorry.

Yep means you were accepted. There should be an acceptance letter buried in there / one of the links.

I am taking it now, heads up it is no longer CHEM 108, but CHEM121 and is no longer called General Lab Chemistry for Heath Professions. And yes Loyola will take it, I am in the Spring cohort and taking this as my last remaining prereq.

I recently was accepted to Loyola's ABSN Hybrid Program for Spring 2020. I am also accepted to Lewis University as a transfer student working towards a BSN (wasnt a fan of the format of Lewis' ABSN). I am a bit torn on which program to pick. I am active duty Air Force about to separate in July and moving back home to IL. This will be my 2nd degree and am excited and ready to start my new career in nursing. From what I've heard both schools are great, with Lewis having the higher NCLEX pass rate. Cost is not an issue with my GI Bill and Yellow Ribbon Program. With Lewis after my transfer eval I'm looking at another 6 semesters (summer breaks in there) or 3 more years of school. With Loyola I'm looking at 16-18 months so obviously half the time. Lewis I like the idea of starting in the Fall rather than having to wait for Jan for Loyola, I also like the idea of in person classes, but wonder if that will get old too. I also like that the pace would obviously be somewhat slower than an ABSN. With Loyola I like the name its associated with, I like the new Downers Grove facility which looks amazing and love the idea of the flexibility in a hybrid format. My hesitation is the nature of an ABSN, though I know any nursing program is all consuming as well as the hybrid format. Just looking for some opinions if given the choice which program you would chose. Again cost is not a factor and I have enough saved and living at home rent free, so not needing to work during either program too. Thanks and sorry for the long winded post!  Zach

Nothing yet. Sorry know that doesn’t help. Good luck!

Hi I also was just accepted to the Spring hybrid cohort. Im still on the fence between Loyola and Lewis but leaning towards Loyola. Congrats and hello future possible classmate

I just received my waitlist notification for the downers grove hybrid program. A bit frustrated as I still need to complete micro and organic chem but hesitant to start if I don’t get accepted. About to take the TEAS for my Lewis application and if offered a spot will attend there instead. Tried to get a sense of when I may know if I get a spot off the waitlist and got a canned response of August 15th which is way to late. Frustrating. Congrats to those who were accepted.
