  1. Kent State ABSN - Fall 2019

    I'm not sure, but I think 3.7-3.8 for the weekend and UH cohorts, and maybe a little lower for the traditional accelerated during the week. Maybe that's because the traditional takes a lot students. Our class was 16 students, I think there was over 1...
  2. Kent State ABSN - Fall 2019

    4.0, and my previous bachelor degree was in maternal child health.
  3. Kent State ABSN - Fall 2019

    The program is very competitive to get in! Do the best you can to do well in your prereqs and keep your GPA high.
  4. Kent State ABSN - Fall 2019

    I worked part time the entire program. The dates of clinicals you may have a little in advance, but the location sometimes we didn't find out until the day before the semester started. With the more specialty classes like OB and psych we knew longer ...
  5. Kent State ABSN - Fall 2019

    I graduated from the UH ABSN cohort with Kent last year. When I started I was working and had 2, 4, and 6 year old little boys. It was a challange but honestly it wasn't too bad. I also got a 4.0, so it is definitely doable.
  6. Cleveland State vs Kent State Accelerated BSN

    I recently graduated from Kent's ABSN program. GPA was a big factor for sure. There were over 150 applicants to my cohort, and 16 were accepted. It is very competitive.
  7. Consensus about WGU MSN grads??

    Hello! I just graduated with my BSN am looking to go for my MSN is education. WGU is appealing for many reasons. I am wanting to know though from the employer's perspective, how is WGU regarded? Would it be a hindrance to being hired to have a deg...
  8. About applying to Tri-C...

    I dont know about Tri-C, but I am in the accelerated BSN program at Kent. I dont qualify for financial aid either, but I do get federal loans by filling out the FAFSA. I figure in one year the degree will pay for itself. I think the application de...
  9. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    I'm getting ready to apply to Kent's ABSN UH-Cohort for Fall 2015. Anyone else applying too? I know the program is extremely competitive so of course Im super nervous. The way the UH cohort is set up would be so perfect for my schedule and family, ...
  10. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    Cool! Will you be staying in the area once the program is over?
  11. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    Where are you moving here from ehudock22?
  12. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    Can the pants be any style? Cargo, fit, etc?
  13. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    JavaRX- did you buy the uniforms through Life Uniforms? Or is there a cheaper place? At orientation Life Uniforms will be there, and I was wondering if I should get fitted, take the brand/style numbers and buy elsewhere. $140 for a uniform seems s...
  14. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    Thanks! I think the general KSU ones might still be open, though Im not sure! Hopefully we both find some funding! My first BS has me drowning too still.
  15. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    Yup! July 7th! The price is definitely intimidating. I applied for all the KSU nursing scholarships I could for this academic year (application period closed for those May 1st, which I think is stupid because we dont even know if we are accepted ...
  16. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    Congrats!!! I'm a little sad we won't be in the same cohort though :) maybe we'll meet at orientation?
  17. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    AHH!!! I GOT ACCEPTED TO THE UH COHORT!!!!! I cant believe I got 1 of 16 slots out of 132 applicants! SOO CRAZY!!! Im so scared, lol!!!
  18. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    I know she said 48, but those numbers dont add up with 24 to daytime, and 16 to UH. So I dont know. I know for sure though that UH went down from 20 to 16 though. I was asked about my educational background, what preparations I had done so feel I...
  19. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    All done :) I feel like it went well. ------------- said there were up to 6 points allowed for the interview portion, Im hoping I got all 6, so my GPA is the only place I'd not be getting full points since I have the prereq's and blue classes done. ...
  20. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    Good luck!! Come back and let us know how it goes!
  21. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    5 or 6 pages!? It still showed on page one for me! I would have bumped it if I'd known it had fallen back.
  22. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    Ive had this post here over two months and this is the first action its been getting! There were 40 interview slots, and the website says they average at least 100 applicants per cycle, and I would guess that goes up with the cycles that are admitti...
  23. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    For the Sunday portion, is it all day? I told work I'd be able to work the opposite day of whatever day the clinical was :/ oops. Im glad to hear the workload is manageable, I have 3 kids (2, 4, and 6 years old) and work 2-4 days per week, (someti...
  24. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015

    Thanks JavaRx! Any advice on getting through the program? How much travel was there to Kent? Were the clinicals actually on weekends? bnatale- Good luck!! Mine is Thursday at 1:40, I didnt see the email until almost a day after it was sent so t...
  25. Kent ABSN UH-Cohort 2015
