Hey everybody, That time of year is coming soon... Anyone else out there applying to BHSN this fall? Best of luck to all!

I picked BHSN over GW without hesitation and I live about 1 mile from the new GWCC they just built :) I might be biased though because I want to do acute care when I am done & Bridgeport is a hospital based program in an acute care setting. Also,...

nurselcoop2b- thanks! i will give her a call this morning! nursingbean- congratulations!!!!:cheers:

For those of you who have filled out your FAFSA.... I did mine about 3 weeks ago & got a confirmation that they received it & reviewed it. When do we hear anything else? All I really want to make sure about is that I am eligible for regular, ...

I want to go to the open house too. Hopefully I am off work that day. And no, you're not weird for wanting another letter. I want one too :) It makes me nervous that we don't get some sort of letter back saying they received your check & form, e...

Took me just about a month to hear back too. GOOD LUCK!!!

Ben, I think you have a pretty good shot at getting in too. I saw on last year's thread that a LOT of people didn't get acceptance letters until March. Fingers crossed for you & let us know the second you hear something!!!

May seems about 15 years away right now I can't wait!!!!!

Nope, haven't been yet either. Pre-NursingStudent: I think you have a pretty good shot at getting in. As far as all the spots being taken, I had some issues with transcripts & AP scores making it there & was VERY nervous about the same thing....

OK, so this may be a little bit psycho... but I just read through all 49 pages of this thread. I got my acceptance letter today & am DYING for any and all info. A lot of you have posted a ton of scheduling/accelerated option/books info & it h...

Will also be starting in Fall & you just answered a TON of my questions- thank you!!!!!!!

Well, dust blown off the archived AP scores, fresh envelope delivered with an ACCEPTANCE LETTER this morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

This is the first year they are doing 75/25 instead of 50/50! Pretty sweet, huh?! Yes, I married an "R" so I feel your pain So, they just say "met" and the date they were met, with no grades in the middle between where the class is listed & "me...

Well, five weeks later, my AP scores (to get credit for the Eng requirement) have been overnighted to Bridgeport. Hopefully my application will go into review Tuesday & I'll be posting good news on here soon :) Talk about down to the wire, huh? N...

mssjez- ahhhhhh, i see said the blind man :) i was thinking you had a better shot than that! lol. i will keep my fingers crossed for you! i'm glad they changed it to 75% rank, 25% lotto this year, hopefully that helps. saramisu- i took a lot of class...

I'd do what you REALLY want to do. I was in your exact same shoes 7 years ago & chose not to "wait it out" and take more courses to increase my GPA, etc to get into nursing. Now I have a degree in a field I don't want to be in, have taken all of ...

Yes, freaking out. But there's no way to guess your rank without knowing what other people are applying wtih. And those are pretty good stats, did you mean one of the first 9 spots or last? I'd think that'll be toward the top third of applicants, not...

Never know, all just depends on the applicant pool. Unfortunately, previous degrees do not count for anything. They DO calculate your GPA differently. It's not just your whole undergrad GPA. They do EVERYTHING within the past 5 years, no matter if th...

OMG it finally all got there at once! I knew that would happen :) Now they have a billion copies of the same transcripts, lol... Now begins the waiting game. Send me good luck that I'll be joining you guys in posting an awesome dancing toddler video

AND CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!

Man, that was FAST! I am on my 3rd time sending a transcript that just won't get there (third time since DECEMBER), so hopefully mine goes under review soon! I am getting nervous that all the spots are getting taken up while my transcript makes it th...

Man, I hope not. I have a couple of W's from my undergrad :/

xinspiredx said verbatim what i was going to write, so i won't re-state it.... i would wait it out, study your buns off for that teas & jump on it in two years. it'll be a real bummer if you don't get the gpa up enough and then end up right back ...

Also... For what it's worth, I also thought A&P I was harder.

To me, endocrine was the hardest by a long shot.
