This is great! I am going to start an ABSN program in May and this will be helpful to refer back to. It is great to watch these ahead of time so I know a little bit of what to expect. Thank you!!!!

Don't get too discouraged. Your degree was probably more intense then some out there. I think you could do a ABSN for sure. Though you need to make sure you don't have to work and you can give it 100%. Before you do any retakes email or meet with schools you are interested in; some don't like to see retakes! I was accepted to Villanova's BSNExpress program. It is 14 months long and I start this coming May. They also have an alternative ABSN that is a little longer because you have the summer off. Take a look at them! They have a more holistic approach for their interview and selection process. Also, the alternative option (with summer off) accepts GPAs that are a little lower. Very structured program and great school. I hope you don't get discouraged about your GPA or an ABSN program. You can definitely do it if you are solely dedicated to it!

Congratulations!!! I am entering an accelerated program too this coming May that is 14 months long. Recently, I read a book called "How to Succeed in Nursing School". It is a light read and I couldn't put it down. It has some AMAZING study tips that I think will help. I am a hands on learner too, so my first portion makes me a little nervous too. The book is only $12 or so and I have attached the link. Congrats everyone and feel confident that you were accepted! It is so competitive out there.

My status was updated in about 3 weeks and after it took me almost a week to get my letter. I live out of state, so if you are local it should only take a few days! Best of luck!

tocana01 that makes me feel MUCH better lol!

JoeJoe3 congrats! I'm not going to lie you have made me a bit nervous about this now. When you say you had an exam below 70%, do you mean a final exam? Are there multiple exams during that specific class and you have to have 70+ on all? Could you be a little more specific? Thanks!

lisa15307 that is interesting that you have interview feedback, mine never did. Good luck to you both!

I received my letter Monday, my due date is also Dec. 12th.

Congrats Laura!!!!

Hey everyone, I got my letter today and I AM IN!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhh so exciting! I am also nervous since I will be moving there!

Well, I'm in Michigan, so I will expect it to take a few more days. At least I know it's on the way. (It's still driving me crazy though!) lol

Congratulations gerrly!!!! Mine still hasn't come! ARGH lol. Hopefully Monday!

Nothing came for me either! The wait is killing me! lol

gerrly, nothing yet! I am off of work the next few days so I will more than likely be staring out my front window waiting for the postman! LOL. Good call out Sweetem, I would also like to know what JoeJoe3 is referring to. I will post ASAP when it comes! Fingers crossed to tocana and gerrly that we hear positive news this weekend!

So, I just checked my application status (as I do everyday lol) and this morning it changed to "decision made: letter sent" I am SO nervous now! Keeping my fingers crossed so I can join you guys :) Have a good day everyone!
