Thank you everyone for your advice! I was accepted for the traditional program. It runs a little longer than UNG's program, but not enough I sway my decision either way. I was able to connect with the nurse recruiter from the hospital that I would like to work at once graduated and she recommended UNG, since we would be doing all of our clinicals there and it would give me a chance to network and potentially line up a job for once I graduate. There's also a great nurse extern program the hospital offers to local students that I'm very interested in so I have decided to pursue UNG. Thanks again for all of your advice and best of luck at KSU :)

Looking for a bit of advice here...I have been accepted to the University of North Georgia BSN as well as KSU BSN and I am having a terrible time deciding which program to pursue. UNG is closer, I could live at home (for basically free), be closer to my fiancé in Athens, network with the my hometown hospital where I eventually would like to work (At least I think I would like to work there, it is all I have ever known) however, this is UNG first year with a bsn, they have always offered ASN in years past (but did offer a RN to BSN). KSU is about an hour and a half away, I would have to move up there probably by second semester, I would be away from my fiancé and family, although my brother does live in Canton, very close to KSU...any insight? I have had many people tell me what an excellent program KSU is, it's amazing reputation, but UNG is also a well known program where I am from and most nurses at the local hospital are graduates from there..I am so torn!

Okay, I am a little confused. If we take Patho this summer, we will basically just have a lighter load the first fall semester? But we are not required to take it this summer, correct?

Yay just got my email!!! :) I applied for the traditional program.

I got the email! I wonder if it means anything..

Oops I guess I should have added that I was accepted! I scored a 86 on my TEAS and have a 3.7.

Check your ung emails!!!!

I just saw where someone received their letter of acceptance for RN to BSN at UNG today. Hopefully we are next!!

I am confused now..did anyone else not get the email stating someone would be away for 2 weeks? I did not..

Thank goodness!! Thanks for the info.

I hope so!! Seems crazy to have us waiting until April when they could finish within a week..

Bad news- a classmate of mine emailed her friend who works in the nursing dept. and as of now, letters are still scheduled to go out in APRIL.

I got the e-mail as well :) I will be lacking the research class as of this summer.

Yay, some action on this thread finally :) I am curious as to how competitive UNG will be since they are now a BSN program..hope we hear something soon!

Hello all! I was accepted to GPC (the college, not the nursing program) on the LAST day of the nursing application deadline ? Luckily, I had already sent in my TEAS in hope of my application getting through in time, so I applied on the final day and just got my letter in the mail yesterday saying I met minimum requirements. WHEW! I cut it close, but now the waiting begins. Best of luck to all!
