Salisbury Accelerated BSN Applicants for 2014

Published

So I have applied for SU's aBSN for fall entry of 2014. I have been checking out threads on this site from applicants from years past and was just looking for insight from other applicants during this waiting process! I have turned everything in but just curious if anyone has received any confirmation that the college has received all of their application materials. I know that they don't really start notifying applicants until February/March but I just wanted to hear from other applicants to help me through this process!

Anyone else applied for Salisbury's accelerated 2nd degree program for the fall of 2014?

cdg07101114- Thanks for the response as it provided me with a lot of insight as to where I stand at this point with getting in to the program. I have a friend who applied as well and she received a letter yesterday saying she was not accepted. Her GPA was below a 3.0 and mine is a 3.45 so I feel as if I have a chance. I also work as a CNA currently, volunteered in the ER and have experience as an EMT. My degree was relevant to the field and I have a lot of volunteer and research experience. So I am hoping for the best and haven't heard much at this point except for that they have received all of my materials (which I only know because I followed up on that). My pre reqs are:

A&P 1- A

A&P 2- C

Microbiology- A

Chemistry 1- A-

Statistics- A

Pathophysiology- will take if accepted

I thank you so much for response. IF I get in I would LOVE to talk to you more about the program and everything. I will contact you either way if that is okay with you to find out a little bit more.

That is fine with me...I'd be glad to talk to you more if you have any other questions so just let me know. :) Your prerequisite grades are definitely better than mine were...the others I forgot were Micro: C & Statistics: B. Like I said, they take all of your application info into consideration so hopefully you'll get in. :)

WOW!!:woot: Ok, so I know my application will be a toss up! I have a 3.01 from my first degree (thanks to a very unfortunate freshman year) but I literally have an A in all the pre reqs (except for a B in Stats and I'm holding off on patho until I get accepted) + I have alot of hospital, research and volunteering experience. Well, I guess all I can do is sit back and watch what happens! I just took my TEAS exam as well and got an 81.3, which I think is a sucky score, but Salisbury doesn't require it.

Thanks for sharing your info cdg07101114! Since this program doesn't require the TEAS, I thought I would be at a major disadvantage not having a 3.5 GPA or higher. However, I'm a bit relieved to know that they look at the WHOLE package, because I do feel that I am a great candidate and would make a great nurse! Fingers crossed!:)

We have similar stats/experience. Keep me posted if you hear anything!

Oh also, for those who haven't taken pathophysiology yet, I took it through college of southern MD, online with Margaret Bolton. I cannot say enough good things about her. She was fantastic, the class materials were all available from day one (so I finished early), and I felt like it was a nice refresher of basic a/p, with a little bit of medical terminology and a basic familiarity with common disease processes. Highly recommend it.
