Boston hospitals are known for not hiring RNs without the BSN. I agree, try outside of the city!

Yay!! Have you ordered your uniform yet? I was going to go up to NH so I can try it on, but they are only open M-F, 9-5 which makes it tough.

What group is everyone in? I am in 2C!

I think you are thinking of Regis University - this thread is for Regis College in the Boston, MA area.

Hey guys, I thought I would make a thread for those that are currently waitlisted so we can update when we get either a rejection or acceptance. That way, others will know if spots are opening up or not. I am waitlisted at Regis. I was told that de...

I sent in my deposit today! So it is official :)

Has anyone heard back from admissions? I was told it may take up to 6 weeks, it has been about 5 and I am itching to hear back!

I didn't get the email yet - I have to send my deposit in still. $1000 is a lot to scrounge up! :)

I applied to Regis, Simmons and Northeastern. I got into Simmons (only the accelerated BSN), waitlisted at Regis (now in) and am waiting for Northeastern (hybrid BS/MSN program). You?

I am not really sure! I was totally discouraged and assumed that I would not get into Regis, so everything is a bit haywire as far as my thoughts about the two are. I need to sit down and really write out a pro/con list of the two. But, I really like...

I am really leaning toward Regis - but am still waiting to hear from Northeastern as well. Regis only gave me just over 2 weeks to send in my deposit (which is a huge deposit from what I have seen elsewhere), so I have some major decisions to make so...

I emailed on Thursday and was told that there was no movement on the wait list - but I received my acceptance letter today!! So, I am assuming they have to tell everyone who asks that there isn't any movement just to cover their butts. :) I hope you ...

I was accepted into the Regis program off of their waitlist today!

Admissions told me that it shouldn't take longer than 5-6 weeks.

Does anyone know about how long after your application is complete and submitted that you get your decision? Admissions told me up to 5 weeks, depending on how busy the admissions board is. Just curious what others have found.

Yup, same here. I am at the point that I am so discouraged that I am just hoping to be pleasantly surprised.

Well, that is great to know. I plan on dropping to part-time, so having most classes in one day would be okay with me!

Thanks for starting this thread! I am interested to see the responses. And thank you de2013 for your always informative responses. I am currently accepted to Simmons Dix ABSN program starting in May and am waitlisted at Regis. I have heard nothing b...

I was told an additional recommendation letter is always welcome.

Regis is my top choice because of their location, night and weekend classes but I am very happy to have gotten into Simmons. I have quite a bit of clinical experience and my gpa, etc is up to their standards. Also, I had not given her my name for the...

Hmmm, I wonder! They person on chat claimed to be the same person I have been emailing and did my interview (I cant put her name - but she is associate director of graduate admissions). Thank you for the confidence boost - I wish they would all get ...

I spoke with admissions through the chat on their site today - there has yet to be any movement on the waitlist and they don't know when there will be. I was told that most movement happens around the May/June time. I can't wait that long - Simmons ...

I was waitlisted - the class is currently full for Fall 2012. Have you heard anything else yet?

That is a good question, I am not sure. When I asked, I was told that they review everyone on the wait list as every spot opens up - so I am assuming acceptances would be sent out one-by-one. I just hate being so helpless and not be able to do anythi...

Do you know if one can transfer into the DE program from the Dix ABSN at any point?
