I also applied to the GEM program for the 2012 cohort. I had my interview in Chicago on July 6. Currently living and working in DC. Final decisions for the Winter cohort will be emailed the evening of Aug. 3, for those that did not know. Good luck to all of you!!! I've also been accepted to GW accelerated BSN program. But my preference is the GEM program. Was very impressed when I went to Chicago. But GW also has a good program, relatively inexpensive and less prereqs for entry. Post if you get in on Aug. 3.
