I was accepted as a transfer student into the spring 2015 semester. I will be entering into the second semester!

I agree with the above comment. Most schools will require HS transcripts, but if you complete all your pre reqs with B's or higher, your high school GPA most likely will not matter that much. Good luck!

I completely agree with this post. I made the mistake of attending Harcum- luckily only for the first semester of the nursing program. The Dean of the program explained they will most likely lose accreditation by April (due to NCLEX scores continuou...

Hello, I would suggest anyone looking into Harcum's nursing program to reconsider their decision. They are losing their accreditation and there are no guarantees they will get it back (it relies on previous years NCLEX scores). I completed the firs...

Anyone else on here get accepted to Harcum College's evening nursing program? If so, anyone else concerned with the current accreditation status, site warning status, etc?

Congrats to you both!! I am waiting for a letter for the Spring 2015 semester. I am a transfer student from another program so I would be transitioning into the second semester. Have you taken the first semester at OCC or would you be starting fro...

That's awesome! Congrats! I love hearing success stories :)

Have you completed all the requirements on certified background yet? I completed everything, but I am still waiting for my fingerprint results to arrive in the mail. It's been over a month since I mailed them.

I appreciate your concern/warning, but for some of us, this is our only option in pursing a degree in nursing. The accreditation issue has been a huge concern of mine since the beginning- of course I do not want to waste my time and money and ultima...

Did you complete CPR? I found a place in Cherry Hill that offers classes through American Heart Association. You can find location and times on the American Heart Associations website. I had the class last night- it was only me and one other perso...

So the woman wrote back regarding fingerprints for students out of state. "I have clarified with Certified Background that you can get your prints done in either your state of residence or in PA. All of it will get sent to the DPW anyway, so please ...

BTW, the woman in charge of certified background at the school emailed me back stating that she placed a call to figure out how we would need to have fingerprinting performed since we live out of state. She said she will contact me when she has more...

I am in group 6 as well. & yes, according to the instructions on that pa cogent website, if you are out of state, you have to get prints from your local police and mail them to the address listed. I go to the quest in voorhees on Friday so I will...

It was incredibly long, but informative. Question for you unique2. Since you are from NJ, what are you doing about fingerprints? I went to sign up to do them and I was reading the instructions on the FBI website and they said if you are out of stat...

See everyone at the info session on March 27!

Sorry, I actually just saw this now. I also plan to do the Rowan online RN to BSN program

I have a littman as well. Definitely the best

I will be paying the deposit online tonight. & on Harcum's website, for CPR we need either Basic Life Support for Healthcare Providers with AED or Basic Life Support for the Professional Rescuer. I had the basic life support for the professiona...

Yeah that is pretty far. I saw in another thread that you live in Cherry Hill. I live in Mullica Hill and work in Voorhees. Nice to see another Jersey person will be attending!

Yes. Unfortunately I don't have any other options. I need evenings, plus my science courses were taken about 7 years ago. Most schools expire after 5 years. What about you?

So, I called the board and the ACEN to ask questions about the warning and provisional status. The board of nursing said they have 2 years to improve their NCLEX scores. If they do not improve them in 2 years, they will close and not accept new stu...

Did you send in your deposit?

I am also very concerned. I haven't sent in my deposit yet- I was planning to call the state board of nursing before I made the commitment.

Sorry if this is long- just need a little advice. I applied to a nursing school roughly 6 months ago. Recently, they emailed me to inform me of their current accreditation status. Copied from the email, this is what they wrote to me, "Due to a rec...
