Thanks for all the info, it is very helpful!! Okay, when you say syllabi you mean syllabus for the course? I took my pre-requisites quite a bit ago so I'm not sure if I have the actual syllabus for each class, do they want a class description? Hmm I would think they could see the units and type of class along with the grade received through the transcripts no? Anyways, I guess I just have to wait - I've been admitted to the school so far but now I am just waiting on the Kramer School of Nursing to review my transcripts and wait for a response. Yeah, I don't know much about loans either so I will just wait to see if I get accepted or not in the nursing program than move forward from there. I do meet all the requirements required to get admitted in the program but I am still anxious to hear back if I get in or not. Hopefully I get some good news. I'm currently awaiting if I get accepted at my current school here in Southern California but there's a good chance I might not get in because it is so competitive so I am using OKCU as a back up - I do want to go to OKCU though because it is only 16 months long which is nice. I have the same plan as you - I want to be in an area to get my BSN and find a job and get experience so that I can eventually come back and work in California. I have a few nurses in my family as well but they all went to school a long time ago where it wasn't competitive and there were no such thing as entrance exams. That is what is really hindering me from getting into a program here in California is the entrance exams, but I do have a good GPA, not a 4.0 but good enough. I just feel an entrance exam shouldn't determine if a person should be a nurse or not if someone is capable, which is why I looked out of state to be in a program, I don't want anything in the way of me being a nurse! I am definitely in the same boat as you. Well, hopefully if all goes well I will be attending in the fall! We should keep in touch during this process! - it would be nice to get to know my possible future classmates.

Hi Nene333, 4-5 weeks? Wow I hope I find out soon, did you have trouble getting your science classes (prereqs?) to transfer over? I just found out i've been admitted to the university but am awaiting to hear back from the kramer school of nursing and was told I would hear back in 3-5 days, hopefully I find out soon. What did they tell you in regards to your science classes? I just want to know to be prepared. In regards to financial aid, how are you financing your school? I was looking into private loans such as wells fargo medcap loan, but am really not sure what to do to finance. What made you choose OKCU nursing? Did you have trouble getting into program in California just like I did? Also, did you visit the school already?

Thanks for the info! That's a good idea for her to live on campus in case someone drops out. I'll have to keep in touch with you in case I do go to OKCU for nursing, I want to make some friends before going out there :)

I have a friend that also applied to the program so if we both get accepted then we will look into off campus living together plus other roomates as well if we move in a house to minimize the cost...looking for fully furnished apartments to make it easier to move in. I, myself wouldn't want to live in the dorms because I like how there is just more freedom if you live off campus I feel...plus I would have my car to drive where I need to be. If I end up moving to OKC alone, then I would want to live off campus and find a roommate, which is why I'm on allnurses.com because I want to be able to talk with others who may also need a roommate and can maybe link up once settled in OKC. Yeah, OKC attracted me because it is only 16 months long compared to "accelerated" programs out here in California that can last 24-36 months. I applied to OKCU as a back up as well, so I am just waiting to see. Do you know approximately how much Kramer School of Nursing will cost? I tried to do my own research and found $60,000 but this was from a few years ago. I couldn't find an update approximate cost of the nursing program now.

@Cmcdaniel nice! I haven't found out if I have been accepted or not I'm still awaiting that, did it take long for her to find out ex: a month or a week? I'm super anxious to find out. I'm trying to get as much info as I can as well so I am willing to help! I don't know much about the area either. I was looking into living off campus and moving into a fully furnished apartment but still thinking about it. Have you guys taken a visit to OKC yet? Also, how are you financing the school? - that's what I'm worried about...I might have to take out a private loan for both tuition and cost of living since I won't be able to work. Was she having trouble getting into a program in her area? That's why I decided to look towards OKCU because I've been trying everywhere here in southern California and it is just too competitive.

Anyone out there attending in the Fall 2015? and do you know when class starts exactly?

thanks @nam6e! I submitted everything so I am currently waiting, even though they accept everyone I am still nervous to hear if I get in or not!

Hello Everyone! I was wondering if anyone out there will be attending Oklahoma City University in the fall 0f 2015 for the accelerated BSN program? I'm in the middle of admissions and haven't found out if I got in yet but would like to know who is attending? I would be moving from San Diego, CA. It would be nice to get to know some of you. I'd like to know where all of you are from and how your admissions process went?
