Ramapo College of New Jersey Accelerated BSN (ABSN) Program

Hi all!
Did anyone hear anything? I received decisions from Rutgers (denied, sadly) and Manhattanville (accepted, but so expensive!). Nothing from Ramapo though. So much anxiety!

I was denied from Rutgers too.. Where else did you guys apply? My application is still under review for Ramapo though.. Ugh I'm anxious as well

I only applied to RCNJ for the BSN program. May I ask your GPA and TEAS score? I have a 3.4 so not sure if that's good enough for Ramapo

I was also denied by Rutgers just yesterday. I think Ramapo might be more competitive due to the price and small class size. I'm hoping at least FDU will accept me and I'll hear about that soon. Otherwise I'm going to apply to NYU and TESU for Fall start.

Besides Rutgers and Manhattanville, I also applied to the Passaic County Communtiy COllege ADN program and will be applying to County College of Morris (if they stop giving me a hard time about my comp II transfer credits), Warren Community College and SUNY Rockland ADN programs. Ramapo is my first choice, but I'm not sure if they will accept my Intro to Chem transfer course; plus my intro to psych and stat are >5 years old. I emailed them that I'll retake them prior to the start of teh semester if necessary. My developmental psych is just last year though so IDK. They replied that they'd make a note in my application file. The cards are definitely stacked against me so I'd like to get the disappointment over with LOL. Good luck to you!

I'm going to apply to ADNs if an ABSN doesn't accept me soon, but I'm 44 so I'd rather a shorter program 👵😂

Mine said under review as well until right now when I checked. Now it does not say that anymore which I am not sure as to why. I had everything completed and my application checklist was set to go but now it says that my high school transcript is missing. Do you happen to know why this would be? As far as I know a hs transcript was not required and everything was fine.

That's odd.. are you able to submit hs transcript? because I was missing my resume and I sent it late and they still accepted it. Or email admissions to ask for clarification

Yes I am able to but it's weird because it wasn't a requirement until right now. I will email them tomorrow and see. Do you know if they'd reply considering it is Spring break?
