To all of the experienced and new nurses: I am currently waiting to find out whether or not I am accepted into a BSN program. I have always wanted to go into the medical field and I have been busting my tail the last 2 years working full-time and ge...

Thank you all for all of your responses. I feel much better and am getting really excited about school, just hope I get in! I think I'll put down the book and take all the negative posts with a grain of salt. I really just needed some reassurance....

I've debated the same thing for a long time. I'd love to go for a MD, but at this point in my life, I'm not sure if I'm willing to devote so much time to school, although in the end, I'll either be a NP or a MD so it might be better just to go all t...

Yes, I worked as a CNA for about 3 months. Had to quit because I was working full-time, taking 3 classes, and also working as a CNA part-time. It was just too much and I was afraid my grades would start suffering. Loved the CNA job and the nurses ...

Hi all! I live in Raleigh, NC, and am anxiously waiting to find out whether or not I got into nursing school. I have applied to UNC's 24-month BSN program.....wish me luck!! Did any of you go through their program or have you heard anything about...

Just one: UNC Chapel Hill's 24-month BSN program

Hi everyone! I am so glad that you made this post as I just about went crazy waiting on a denial letter last spring. i had applied to an 14-month ABSN program and didn't even realize until after all the waiting that I didn't meet their GPA requirem...

Oh, I just said that because if you have an average of 3.4-3.5, then that means there were people who were accepted both above and below that range in order to get that kind of average. I exaggerated when I said way below and way above, sorry about ...

PS: You're right, that's all that we can do is try the best that we can. I, probably like you, am hoping so much that they can see how much we've grown since our undergrad degrees since we both have now done well in our pre-reqs, I hope that our har...

No, I don't think they are as strict for the 24-month program. They have a 2.5 GPA for the 24-month program. When I read the 3.4-.3.5 thing on the transcripts from their chat session, that was just an average, so they accepted people way below and ...

Hi stephanie.s80! I also applied to UNC's 24-month program for entrance in January. I applied to the 14-month program that began in May, 2007 and anxiously awaited news to find out that I didn't get accepted. However, after talking to Ms. Terry a...

So, I just got off the phone with the undergraduate admissions office and the school of nursing. the school of nursing said all notifications were sent out on tuesday, which would be 04/03/2007. Therefore, we should be receiving them anytime. Unde...

Mine says the same. I get really excited when it changes. I hope we hear something soon. Please let me know if you receive something in the mail and I will do the same. Good luck!

That's surprising. I would have thought it would have come in a big envelope with paperwork included. Thanks for the information. Good luck and let's keep in touch as to what we hear. Hopefully, they will let us know soon. I really hope we get i...

Wow! I am really freaking out now. I too also applied to the 14 month program beginning in May and I have been dying to find out if I got in or not. I have not received anything yet. I did find out from the nursing school that they sent all of th...
