  1. APU ELM Spring 2018

    Congrats on the interview sig_336! I was contacted for an interview a little over a month after the deadline, and I believe there were still interviews going a couple weeks after mine as well. So if...
  2. APU ELM Spring 2018

    Hi Sig_336, The provisional contract is for accepted applicants with a below 3.0 GPA. It states that the admitted student must receive higher than a B- in the first 12 units of the program to continue...

  4. APU ELM Spring 2018

    Congrats to those that were accepted! Has anyone heard from the IE
  5. Accelerated Nursing Programs

    I think you are in a better situation than you believe yourself to be. Although your current university reset your gpa, an absn program will almost assuredly take your entire undergraduate gpa,...
  6. Traditional bsn vs direct entry level and absn

    As Roasted.Peanuts said, these are only minimum requirements. If you look at UCSF, which is consistently in the top 3 nursing schools in the country, their requirements are similar to the other direct...
  7. GMU ABSN program 2017 applicants

    I was accepted as well, although similar to LawyerRN2b chances are I will be giving up my spot to attend another program. I'll take a few days to weigh my options but wanted to extend congratulations...
  8. HESI vs. TEAS

    I have taken both within the past three months and I think if you just study the TEAS material you will be fine. Both tests I studied about a week or two in advance. I took the HESI first and scored a...
  9. Your GPA meets the minimum requirements to apply to most nursing programs (3.0). I was accepted to two great nursing schools so far with excellent clinical opportunities with an overall GPA In...
  10. MGH IHP Prereqs

    Thank you, I am definitely excited! Still weighing a couple other options too. That's probably a good decision in regards to straighterline, community college courses will probably be cheaper as well....
  11. MGH IHP Prereqs

    Hi AmandaKyle, I was recently accepted to the MGH 2017 cohort. I have not heard of straighterline but just briefly looking it up it is unaccredited. I would be extremely cautious of completing your...
  12. Hi Eeb71 and bnburle, Thanks for the help, I still haven't received confirmation that my materials were received so I just emailed Ms. Plocki. Hope to hear something soon! And congrats to both of...
  13. Hello everyone, Congratulations to all that have been accepted and good luck to those still waiting! I sent my application materials in Feb. 10th so they were probably received sometime last week......
  14. Ruined my chances of a BSN? Have to be an ADN forever??

    I know I'm a little late to the party here but just wanted to say there is absolutely no reason to feel stuck as with an ADN because of one prerequisite. I am applying to ABSN programs right now and...
  15. GMU ABSN program 2017 applicants

    @hope2nurse2017- Nice! From your previous post it sounded like you hadn't so I just wanted to be sure you got it in! I actually had never used imovie before either, I was able to figure it out well...
  16. GMU ABSN program 2017 applicants

    I wasn't entirely happy with my video either, but felt I had a strong essay to balance it out. I used imovie for the video to help me split up some of my talking parts so I could really focus on...
  17. Bachelor Degree for CRNA

    You do not necessarily need a bachelors in nursing to get into a masters in nursing. There are programs called "direct entry masters" or "entry level masters" that are specifically for students with...
  18. GMU ABSN program 2017 applicants

    Hey all, I'm applying all the way out from California to the 2017 ABSN at GMU! Just finished up my pre reqs this past semester and will be taking the HESI next week. I was also a little surprised by...
  19. Why Do Nurses Quit?

    I think much of this issue is due to the prevalent notion of a severe nursing shortage (which was briefly mentioned in this article). I'll be starting nursing school in the coming months and have done...
  20. Stony Brook Accelerated Nursing Class of 2018

    I didn't receive an interview either so I am also expecting a rejection letter. However, I want to point out to those that are anticipating decisions this week that a poster earlier said that after...
  21. HIV/AIDS Nurse

    Hi everybody, I am a prenursing student that is interested in working with HIV/AIDS populations after completing my bachelors. My ultimate goal is to become a nurse practitioner working with...
  22. Stony Brook Accelerated Nursing Class of 2018

    Hello again everyone, Just wanted to follow up on my post last night in case anyone else was having the same issue as I was with their letters of recommendation. I emailed admissions today and they...
  23. Stony Brook Accelerated Nursing Class of 2018

    Hi all, I hope the application process has gone well for everybody! I submitted mine yesterday, but can not get a hold of one of my letters of recommendation to submit the letter. Does anyone know...
