Seattle University BSN (Transfer) Applicants 2014

[cw.sea]

I didn't find any threads on Seattle University BSN for Fall 2014; just wanted to know who else is applying!

Are you a transfer student?

[Husky2011]

Yes, I believe I applied as a transfer student for the Fall entry bsn program. I have a bachelor's from UW, and I was a bit confused as to what status I needed to choose to apply, but they told me to apply as a transfer.

[brooke.phaganLPN]

They hold about 5 spots for the traditional bsn program.

Yea it's hard to get in as a transfer unfortunately =( priority is to SU students..

[Husky2011]

When you say there are only 5 spots for transfer, do you put post-bac in the same boat? I am actually post-bac, I got my bachelor's degree from another college, and I am now applying to Seattle U. Either way thank you for your help.

[brooke.phaganLPN]

Yes unless you applied for the accelerated program.

SU actually has 75 slots for transfer students. They are in a separate class from the regular SU pre nursing students. Hope that eases your waiting stress! Source: accepted in 2012.

[brooke.phaganLPN]

Hmm that's weird because I spoke to a nursing advisor and she said about 5.

[brooke.phaganLPN]

But 75 is better than 5! Can I ask how your grades and gpa was?

[armynurse68]

I know SPU only accepts 5 transfer students. I had a 3.95. I ended up at UW instead but SU is an amazing school.

[brooke.phaganLPN]

I have applied at UW too. I have a good gpa, 40 hrs volunteer work and over 2000 hours working as a LPN. My only worry is I'm finishing up A&P this quarter and taking O Chem next quarter. I had a great recommendation letter and essay. I wouldn't be worried if I had all my sciences done.

oh I remember you armynurse from UW 2012 haha. I was just a visitor but I followed that post constantly. How did you like the UW program?
