rntobe2009

Your welcome, Yes Jefferson is in center city Philadelphia. It's a great schooland the teachers are there for you and WANT everyone to pass. All you have to do is the work and they will help you anyway they can.

I applied there and was accepted in 2008 to begin in January of 2009. I could not get financial aid because they were no longer being funded so I could not attend the program. I applied at Jefferson University in January and was accepted three weeks later; I graduate in a month:w00t:. Please whatever you do, don't attend a program because you feel that you dont have any other choices. Either wait to apply to a different RN program of apply to an LPN program and then do an accelerated program because NO HOSPITALS WANT GRADUATES FROM A NON ACCREDITED PROGRAM.

Classes are everyday: monday and tuesday clinical (in the beginning-lab), wednesday general studies classes, thursday lecture, friday didactic (lab prep) and exams.

I'm so excited! Thanks! and please believe me i will be contacting u verrrrrrrrry soon! lol classes start next week and i just checked pulse and saw that we have some power points and reading already!

congrats! i start the program next week, any advice?

i know it will be hard, but don't give up. you'll be happy you made the sacrifice when your done.:nuke:

well we start in september. i do have three children and i don't work. i try to have the attitude that i will make it work.

well okay i left something out (i'm sorry) on wednesdays, if you have any micro, a&p, english or other required classes to take, they have to be taken on wednesday's. and our friday's have to be open for tests, or scheduled labs, if any they will notify us ahead of time.

evening and weekend is not an option in the asn-bsn program. usually all nursing scools are day programs if there is no indication of time. we will have clinicals on mon & tues, and full days on thursdays

Basically they accept students until the class is full. Our orientation is next week so my advice would be to get all your info together and get ready to apply right after the semester begins. Good luck!

They will choose the students with the better scores. There are hundreds of students with really good G.P.A's and NET test scores so that's why they say you need to have at least a 70 (IN BOTH MATH AND READING) in order to compete with those other students.

There is an interview before they let you know if you're excepted. However, I don't think they interview people they don't plan to accept because in my interview, I was asked a few questions but it didn't feel like it was really an interview. I was infromed a lot about how my classes would be and how intense the program was. There was no indication that I was accepted at the time but I was accepted hours later. Good luck!

Hello and Congrats! We have a facebook group called "Thomas Jefferson University ASN-BSN Class of 2011". Type the name of the group into the search box on facebook and join. My goal is that we meet, greet, and share info and thoughts before the start of class.

Your very welcome and good luck!:wink2:

Well, i was accepted seven days after my application was complete. I am not sure if the class is full yet but you can call and ask the people in admissions, they are pretty straight foward. They will give you the right info. The only thing is that you haven't taken the net test yet so your application won't be considered complete until you have taken it and they have the results (about a week after you take the exam). So most likely your application will fall into the fourth review period because in order to be in the third review period, you would have had to have all your application materials in by February 15th. They said they like to see a composite score of math and reading of around a 70 at least. I got an 86.
