Thank you so much! This is exactly what I was looking for. I did contact Admissions last week and should have a decision this week. I have the 3 classes completed and my GPA is 3.66, so fingers crossed. I cannot believe the decisions are not made until January! I have a question - what did you mean when you said I "would already be behind in NURS 223 & 224?" Do you mean because I did not take the 100 level nursing courses? Did you find it difficult to "catch up?" I am not sure whether I should petition or not -one of the reasons I chose this program is the ability to complete it quickly. However, I recognize that taking 5 nursing classes at once is incredibly time consuming and possibly insane :). For me, a lot will come down to financial aid. I am anxious to get my plan of study created! Thanks again for the response!!!

Has anyone recently applied to the RIC Accelerated BSN program for 2nd degree students? I have a bachelor's degree and all but one of RIC's required cognates completed. Looking for info on timeline for acceptance (my application was submitted in August), competition for 2nd degree students obtaining spots in the nursing program and anything from recent applicants or graduates of the program! Thank you!
