Hello all! I'm new to this forum. I have been having trouble finding Accelerated BSN programs that do not require TEAS, GRE, or entrance exams. I already have a Bachelor's and a Master's degree. I don't want to waste my time and money on such exams. ...

UMiami, UF, USAlabama, NYU, and DrexelU for ABSN. A few other schools for other programs: Duke, UNC Chapel Hill, UF, FIU, and NSU for a doctorate program.

Yes I have applied elsewhere and have already been accepted to other programs. Still considering my options as I haven't decided where I'm ultimately going. Planning on making that decision very soon. :)

Supposedly they won't let you take the NCLEX unless you pass the HESI. They prevent you from getting your degree and from taking the NCLEX unless you pass the HESI with a certain score (as so I've heard). This is why they have NCLEX pass rates that "...

I submitted my application back in April and am extremely disappointed with this school. I had my interview already for the Jan 2011 class. They won't announce any acceptance until the first week of December. I was very surprised to hear that they no...

I'm in South Florida. I know someone who got into University of Miami ABSN with 3.0 GPA overall and 3.2 in pre-reqs. From my sources, in Central FL Remington College was unable to fill their all their open seats during their last term (Summer) for th...

With regard to the G.P.A requirements.... A MINIMUM 2.5 or 2.75 is not a crazy GPA requirement for A.B.S.N. I can't imagine anyone with a G.P.A. below a 2.5 being able to pass Nursing school much less the NCLEX (unless the person is really a CHANGED ...

With all the schools I have researched, the Accelerated B.S.N. is (in my opinion) the best choice for those who already have a bachelors degree who want to be an R.N. as quickly as possble. I will explain in further detail: The Associates in Nursing ...

I have an interview here in 2 weeks for the Jan 2011 start. Wish me luck!

This case is very specific. I would definitely try because you never know until you try. My advice would be to try to get your GPA up by retaking some classes if its not too much of an issue. This shows that you are determined to raise your GPA to ge...

This is very interesting.....PT is more difficult to get into than Nursing School. There are FAR more nursing schools to apply to than PT. Anyone who applies to Nursing has a MUCH higher chance to get in than any Pre-PT student trying to get into PT ...

Nursing school will happen! How dare they deny me? Just Kidding!

I have a B.S. and M.B.A. and almost done with my M.S. from Medical School. I am applying for an "Accelerated B.S.N." which is specifically designed for those who have a bachelors degree in another dicipline else. The programs called ABSN for short, a...

Congrats!!!

great info! Thanks. I applied to start Jan 2011. I'm wondering...If you already took Nutrition, will they transfer the credit?

I'm applying for Jan 2011 also....not too sure if I want to go here after reading this...I'm also unsure of the accredidation since their website says that they are going to be reviewed this month for it. What I love most about this school is the loc...

Hello everyone! I'm new to the forum. I am in need of your guidance. - Accelerated BSN (or MSN if I'm eligible) I understand that getting into nursing school can be extremely challenging. I'm wondering what my chances are to get in. Any advice on wh...

Thanks for the input. All of the universities I've attended are fully accredited. Now I've been adding schools to my list that I intend to apply to....I have about 6 schools on my list so far. How many do you think I should apply too? How many is too...

You have to keep your hopes up! Don't let anyone tell you that you can't accomplish it. You have potential to control where you want to be. Just follow the guidance and advice of others who have been there. If its meant to be, then it will happen.

Thank you for all of your comments and compliments! I don't mind relocating or if its a local school. I don't mind taking online classes later on for the MSN while I'm working and getting "hands on" experience. I would love to teach in the future.......

Thanks you guys! I really appreciate it! I'm looking into these.

If you dont mind me asking...what was ur gpa? I'm in the process of applying there for the 2011 start.

I started applying already a few weeks ago. I can start anytime in 2011. All I have left is nutrition and microbiology. I'm so excited! Thanks Paco for the advice. I just finished my application for Drexel. Yay!!

I'm currently in Florida. Both of those schools require GRE. Thanks tho.

Hmmm. I've been randomly looking up schools and most of the ones ive seen online require TEAS or another exam. All of the schools in TX that ive looked at so far require exams...Same with Emory and a few in GA. I have looked at several others...I wil...
