Hello, I am starting the Accelerated Masters Program, Direct entry in Regis College this fall 2011. I was hoping to get an insight into program and also possible advice on succeeding in nursing school. I currently work as a medical assistant in a d...

Hello! I am starting the Accelerated Direct Entry Masters program at Regis College this fall 2011! I would love to meet anyone starting the same program. Also any advice on preparing for graduate nursing school would be greatly appreciated! I am sup...

Congrats VTknt! I guess we will be classmates come this fall! I have been out of the loop for quite some time as well...but it was time to take the plunge and go back to school. I currently work as an MA for a Dermatology practice in Wellesley. I've...

I just mailed out my application packet today to Regis College in Weston, MA for their Accelerated Master's of Science in Nursing (NP program). My packet is basically complete with sealed transcripts, sealed recommendation letters, my resume, cv, and...

Hi KIMRRT! Congrats to you! I was hoping to meet new friends before the start of the program since I'm sure we have a long journey to look forward to. It's nice to be able to share experiences with someone who would understand. Did you say you grad...

Hi gis0610! I actually did receive my acceptance letter!....it was 2 days before Christmas! To be honest I really didn't expect to hear from them so soon, so it was a really nice surprise! I am really excited! It really takes a load off. So now I ca...

Happy Holidays everyone! Christmas certainly came just in time for me this year.....I just got my acceptance letter to my first choice nursing school yesterday, Christmas eve! Who could ask for a better gift!! What a perfect ending to a long year! I...

What does that mean deferred? Are you on a waitlist? I do know that being waitlisted is way better than getting a flat rejection. Escpecially since the school is rolling admission and classes don't start until fall 2010, chances of them offering you...

Hey BananaNapkin, I'm not sure which area in Mass you're from, but here in Salem we got well over a foot of snow! I'm basically snowed in. Lots of time to think I guess!....January is quickly approaching so the 11th will be here in a few of weeks. ...

I had my appointment with the director of graduate admissions. It was very laid and despite my low GPA, she was extremely approachable and very encouraging. I left the meeting feeling like I could get in. But I mean I'm sure they have to be that wa...

LOL......yes I know the feeling....stalking the mailman and the hitting the refresh button every five minutes has become a sad daily routine. Feel better or at least sane that I'm not alone. I think they mail most of the acceptance letters from what...

Thanks Julie! I actually thought of you when I was thinking about acceptance to Regis, you're name just popped up! I sent you a PM, but you just answered my question, so thank you:) I hope I get a "regular letter/thin envelope" soon!

I actually had the first appointment or interview with the school last year in the fall.....so it was a while ago. At that time I still had prerequisites to take and my GPA was pretty low and hadn't taken the GRE yet...I really wasn't much of an app...

Hey Banananapkin, So I just found out that if you had an interview with one of the advisors BEFORE you submitted your application, that will count toward your interview portion. So they will not contact you for a second interview. Basically I got a...

Has any applicant for the 2010 fall class actually receive an acceptance letter or had an interview with Regis? I applied for early decision last week and have not yet heard anything from them. I did meet with the advisors before turning in my appli...

Banananapkin - congrats on getting the interview over with, sounds like it went well:) I definitely would relax until after you get a decision to worry about retaking the GRE. The test is stressful enough, you don't need the extra pressure. Juliew...

Hey Allie, Doesn't it feel good to turn in your application?....the hard part is waiting though. I have absolutely no patience. If you don't mind me asking, how strong was your application? Did you do well in the GREs and GPA? We were trying to ge...

Ok I feel better now, I'll just stare at my phone all week.... Actually I just emailed the director...to check on my status. I've met her before and they're all really nice, so I'm sure the interview should be a breeze for you. I'd like to have a d...

Oh that's great! I think the interview part should be just fine, just be yourself, answer truthfully and if you really have a passion for nursing it should come easy. I'm sure you'll do great! So you contacted them for an interview? I didn't know we ...

Hey BananaNapkin! So I went to the info session last night at Regis, were you there? It was somewhat informative, but I still don't really have an idea of how many applications they received for early decision. It seems they are still apparently very...

Hey there BananaNapkin, I am so happy you applied to my thread! I wasn't sure if I would get any response. Somehow there was much more hype last year.....although I was kinda just watching and waiting. I didn't want to apply until I finished most of ...

Hi Julie, Congrats on getting accepted to Regis, I am actually applying this month. I got put on a waitlist for MGH. Honestly, the nursing program at Regis is excellent. You will be able to graduate with a MS and a BSN, which is great after 18 mon...

Thanks for the encouragement Darkallstar! I just want to get the whole thing over with. I hate the anticipation...

Hi Colleen, I've read your posts from last year...the group thread was interesting. I am just so nervous about not getting in. I called about it and was told they received over 400 applicants this year and there are only 50 seats available. My GPA ...

Hi there i was just wondering if you ended up applying to the BSN program for the May 2009 entry. I turned in my application material last week...
