    UMASS Boston 2012 traditional BSN

    Congrats to all those who've been accepted!! As for those who have been rejected, don't give up... It might've not been your time now, but don't worry for it will come to you
  3. First question to think about (besides tuition and financial aid): Which place can you attend full time and still be able to work at least part
  4. I don't mind you asking at all :). I got my BA in Sociology (with a minor in Biology). Long story short: I thought I wanted to be a doctor but after much soul searching realized nursing was a perfect...
  5. I know how you feel... Any answer would feel great at this point!! >_ BTW if you don't mind me asking, do you have a previous degree from anywhere
  6. Hi Maz, I also applied to Salem State's program. I checked my status online earlier this week and the message said that the final decisions go out to everyone in the middle of the month. I assume this...
  7. Hey everyone!! I haven't seen any recent boards on looking, applying, or getting a job in a hospital. I myself have been looking to become a Unit Aide, Unit Secretary, or a Unit Coordinator at any...

    Pre-nursing/Nursing student jobs

    Hi MGH99, No I never did (I did have three interviews at Boston area hospitals two of them at the same place), but I did get a job as a Medical Records Clerk at a mental health clinic in the same town...

    UMASS Boston 2012 traditional BSN

    When I submitted all of my paperwork it was as a transfer student and with a money order. They never want to reply to anyone. If I were you I would try to contact the Business/Bursar office and then...

    UMASS Boston 2012 traditional BSN

    No problem!! I wish I could give you more advice but the only thing I can say to you is for you to look into Roxbury CC before the deadline passes. I was also rejected from UMass Boston (not once, but...

    Hey Steph, Have you looked into Salem State or any accelerated programs? I know that MCPHS-Worcester's (accelerated between 14-16 months) fall 2012 deadline is for June 1st. I also know that RCC's...

    Umass Boston fall 2012 traditional

    I also forgot to mention that you can call them about 1.5 to 2 weeks after the deadline and ask about why your status hasn't changed. Back in November I did just that and the vague answers I got told...

    Wait Lists in Massachutes

    As far as I know there are some programs with waitlists. Quincy College (ADN) has a waitlist that carries over for about two years max. UMass Boston (BSN + RN-BSN) and MassBay (ADN) have waitlists but...

    Prerequisite Grades

    CiaMia, I can understand how you feel about community colleges, but they really do save you a lot of money in the long run. I've been taking classes with one since I graduated from college in 2010 and...

    applying for fall with no math?

    I doubt that taking Stats now will hold you back as a lot of programs either make it a mandatory part of their curriculum or don't require it at all. Stats is more necessary for BSN programs. Also,...

    UMass Boston January/Spring 2012

    No prob :) and yes I got my BA in Sociology last year and have been taking nursing pre-reqs since graduation. I'm pretty much done with private schools and only want any cheap state school that will...
  19. Hey everyone!! I decided to start a thread for anyone who is/has applied to the UMass Boston traditional nursing program for the January 2012 start. I just submitted everything to the Admissions...
  20. LMH/Regis always has a big graduating class from their program. I know this because I went to Regis during my undergrad years. At my graduation in 2010, less than 90 students graduated from the BSN...

    UMass Boston January/Spring 2012

    I'm sorry and I know how you feel. I cried for hours (before and after a test I had to take that day) and had to start looking at other options. I do plan on reapplying again to their program, but...

    Boston Nursing School Transfer

    I really don't know about you being able to transfer as a junior to any BSN programs here in Massachusetts. From what I know and have heard, its not very likely that it can happen as not many schools...

    UMass Boston January/Spring 2012

    Hi Jaz, Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I have heard about the Chancellor's Scholarship but I think its more for students who don't have a college degree (first timers to school). I could...

    Salem State College

    I was wondering if anyone would know of the minimum GPA for an accepted student? Also, what exactly is the admissions process
