Thank you so much!

I want to apply to a certain hospital that two people in my family went to before they passed away. I spent a lot of time at this hospital while my family members were being cared for there and really admired all of their staff. If I mention this at an interview, would this violate hipaa? Thank you.

I currently live in Newton, MA. Do you think that is too far of a commute? I am hearing that everyone lives in Sommerville/Cambridge but I don't think it's possible for me to move again.

skhan don't give up because of what you've heard. I didn't think I would get into the accelerated nursing program because it was incredibly competitive, but I made it. I think getting a job after the program will be all up to you and how hard you work for it.

I am in!!! I was notified by email and was shaking before I opened up the decision letter. Congrats to everyone else who is in! Cannot wait. :)

Hi Everyone! I applied to the MGH Accelerated Nursing program 2014! I am really hoping to get in and I am getting so nervous and anxious waiting to hear back. As for the ten-year old prereqs, I think if you have only one that is older than ten years, that might be okay. They did have a section where you could waive it. However, if you have multiple prereqs over ten years old, I think they may want you to retake them. At their open information session it seemed like the reason they wanted your classes to be pretty recent is because they don't think you can retain the material if you took the class so long ago (I know I would forget a lot after ten years). They want you to be mentally prepared to go into the accelerated program without having to teach you all of the basics again. I would call them just to make sure. It may be in your best interest to retake them anyway since the program is so vigorous and you do not want to fall behind. Best of luck to you and everyone!
