Finally! That was a long week of waiting haha. Congrats to everyone. I look forward to meeting you all! See you in March/May!

Haha, I've been keeping it together the past week, but after reading this you're really making me anxious! I have yet to hear anything. I was also thinking they would be sending out emails. Good luck!

I think it went well! My interview was also really relaxed. I interviewed with one faculty member but was expecting several. She said that acceptance letters should be going out in about a week, so I'm really looking forward to that!

Awesome! I have my interview tomorrow afternoon and I'm really looking forward to it. I'm also getting very anxious during this whole process haha. Good luck to you and hope to see you in May!

I do not know for a fact if it is any more or less competitive than the two year traditional BSN. I imagine since the requirements are higher (you need a bachelors) that they receive far less applicants than the traditional BSN; however, obviously there is always a chance that those applying to the FastBacc program could have higher GPAs and HESI scores. Based on prior posts on this forum, it seems like the average overall and science GPA for acceptance is ~3.5. I believe the 2013 FastBacc program accepted 36 students, but I think I remember Tina saying they were accepting quite a few more this year. Sorry I couldn't be of more help, but I'm sure someone else has more information on this topic than I do.

Last I heard there would be interviews this time around. Has anyone heard about the expected dates of these? I'm all ears for any other information about what is going on from now until May! Thanks!

Hey everyone! I couldn't find any other threads for the May 2014 class, so I figured I'd go ahead and make one. The application deadline is just about here, so I'm sure Tina is very busy getting everything together. Now the waiting begins! Feel free to post anything here related to the 2014 LHSON FastBacc program. Hopefully we have some turnout in this thread and answer many questions amongst ourselves! Good luck to everyone!
