Do you have to interview for the A-BSN program?

Congrats to everyone who got in!! May I ask when you all submitted your application. I had a problem with one of my recs and my application wasn't technically complete until late March even though I started in way back in October. I haven't heard back yet and this is making me nervous.

My friend and I were trying to find some info on the Second Degree BSN program, and after some searching still could not figure out if it is possible to complete the Second BSN program in less than 2 years (like an accelerated BSN program)?

I applied late to Jefferson so I haven't gotten any news from them yet. If you get an interview do they call you? If you do not get one do they just send a letter? Thanks

Oh my gosh its February! Has anyone heard from them yet? I usually never do this but I kept checking my email every 5 minutes at work today I am so anxious.

I am asking this b.c my friend is a few months away from graduating and is applying for some jobs out of state. She had an interview coming up in Arizona, but we are not in Arizona. Instead of waiting until she gets there to take the NCLEX, or taking ours then having it changed to an AZ one, is it possible to take the Arizona NCLEX here (in another state)? Thanks

I am interested in NYU for the fall, does it work against you if some of your prereq courses are from jr. colleges or were taken during the summer (so an accelerated version of the course)?

I can't wait to hear from them, even though I am scared of being rejected which is probably going to happen! I hear they have quite large class sizes, does anyone know how many people they accept per year?

I applied for this program as well since the BSN portion of the FACT program is a little too accelerated for me Regarding admissions, is the Accel Pathway to MSN (for non-nurses) just as competitive as FACT admissions? I have only been able to find info about FACT thus far and I know its really competitive, is the Accel PAthway the same (I hope not but I think it might be)?

Sorry disregard this- I moved the post to somewhere where it was more relevant

Hi, I am also considering Marymount for Spring 2010, I already sent my deposit but I am still considering another school (other school is not in the VA area). Initially I was happy with Marymount, but I am concerned about the lack of financial aid offered, I haven't found out how much I'm getting yet but everyone says not to expect much. Also, I am not from the area so I would have to consider living costs too and I know its not a cheap place to live... Is anyone using loans other than federal loans? Were you offered a sufficient amount by fafsa? Also would it take a really long time (is there a lot of traffic) to get to the campus from north/central Wash DC? Thanks

Does anyone know if admissions to the "Accelerated Pathway To the MSN for Second-Degree Prelicensure Students" are just as hard as FACT admissions? I haven't been able to find much info about this program. I know for the FACT program most admitted students have at least a 3.5, does the APMSN program have similar requirements? I just sent everything Monday so I barely missed the deadline for the 2nd review period =(

Do you have to interview for the A-BSN program? I applied for Spring 2010 but I turned in the app really late (just a week ago) so I think I am going to re-apply for fall.

I asked before (though I ended up not applying), the initial contact for interviews is by e-mail.

Thank you for letting me know! I'm just sad to find out I am going to have to nervously wait until Feb! Are you are current Columbia student?
