First of all, congrats on getting two acceptances! If I were in your position... I would honestly go with WCU. I went there for my undergrad its a great school. But you also have to think about your schedule & the time table you were hoping to get your BSN... WCU's program is longer. I also heard negative things about Jefferson's program. I too felt something was "off" with Jeff's program when I went there for their open house/info session... I never accepted the interview invitation because I had already had gotten accepted to Villanova. A lot of current students are unhappy with Jefferson's program, so I've heard. They are changing the curriculum for the upcoming cohort so nothing will be the same. I just sent in my deposit for Villanova's accelerated ban express and I'm super excited. Comparing Jeff & Nova...I liked Villanova's 14 months vs Jeff's 12 months... their faculty was incredibly nice and i felt like they WANTED me there... with villanova you get breaks (winter & spring break & holidays).. passing mark is 73 vs Jeff's 77...automatically accepted to masters with no expiration...I spoke to many current bsn express students & they are having the best experience of their lives. Those all were major deciding factors for me. You just got to go with your gut, do your research, and do what has the MOST PROS for you and your lifestyle. GOOD LUCK deciding! I was very torn as well in my decision process but it will become clear to you... let me know if can help!

its about $1000 at delaware county community college... intro to world religions hum 160 online

after mine changed to decision made notification sent...it took 6 days to receive the letter. my interviewer said the same exact thing and i got accepted! good luck to you!

last Wednesday!

I JUST GOT ACCEPTED!! really really happy. this was my first choice school. let me know who else gets accepted and GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE :)

mine said the same thing "decision made- notification sent" i think we should be receiving our letters VERY soon (not tomorrow - veterans day) IM PRAYING !!!

Hey kelquae! congratulations!!! that is awesome. what are your stats? when did you apply? How did your interview go & who was it with? sorry so many questions!!!

Hi Chelseaplant, well I applied early but they wanted me to have more classes finished. So, by the time I had more courses finished (all but 2; micro and stat currently in progress) it took about a month to hear back. One day my portal changed to accepted and then I received my acceptance letter a few days after that. I am definitely leaning towards Jefferson though. However, did anyone else hear that for Jefferson the pass mark was raised to 77? That was really surprising to me. I went to the info session yesterday and they announced that. Makes me a little nervous!

Good luck twizzi1227! How did it go!!!?

Thank you for your tips! Who did you interview with? Nursing professors/the director of the fact program/or the admissions fact coordinator??

does anyone know how many students are accepted into the program?

Thank you jay buzz! I love hearing that the current students love the program...makes me want to get accepted even more! After your interview...how long did it take to receive a decision? what made you choose nova over some of the other local accelerated bsn programs?

hi joejoe3, how do you like the FACT program? i am currently applying to both fact and bsn express and would love some insight?

Hi peppymint! i know this thread is a year old but HOW IS THE PROGRAM? i am currently applying to schools (just got accepted to drexel, am applying to both nova and jeff but nova is my #1). Any tips for interview?

hey I'm currently applying to the 2016 jeff fact program and wanted to get an opinion from someone who has been through it! how many people accepted? what were your stats when you got in? how do you like it? Thank you I REALLY APPRECIATE IT :)

also... what has everyone heard about this program? I just got accepted to Drexel's ACE but am leaning toward Jefferson f i get accepted. Share what you've heard about the program if you can :)

Hey everyone congrats on all the interviews! Please update us with how they went! Anyone else attending the info session/open house on oct 13? I still would have 1 prerequisite left to complete in the jan-may semester (chem 2). Suggestions for any good schools/professors in the area? I am not so good in chem so I WILL TAKE IT ANYWHERE that is good! or biochemistry i guess !

I'm in PA, I am currently scheduling an interview! Any tips?

Woohoo just got accepted!!! See you all in the Spring!

Thank you for responding! I'm just trying to get an idea if Villanova accepts students with a little more prerequisites left. I already have my Bachelors finished (3.5). I have 4 prerequisites completed (nutrition, dev psy, a&p 1&2 A, A, A-, A-. I am currently taking 2 prerequisites and would have 3 to take in the Spring (religion, patho, and org chem). Thank you for your input!!

Hi, where do you go to NP school??

Hey Kate, I applied recently and am awaiting a decision. If you don't mind me asking, -What was your undergrad GPA & prerequisite GPA? -At the time of acceptance, how many prerequisites did you still have to complete? -How long did it take to get a decision? thnk you I really appreciate your response!
