Thomas Jefferson University ASN-BSN Fall 2009

Published

Hi, I was just accepted to Thomas Jefferson University's ASN-BSN program for the Fall of 2009 . I'm just looking to communicate with others who have also been accepted.

Hi. This is actually my first post and I had a quick question concerning my NET scores. When i went to take the NETs, the instructor told us we needed at least a 70 in reading and math separately to be considered for admissions into jefferson. In a pamphlet I read, it stated there is no minimum score for the NET however scores of 70 or higher are competitive, also I'm unsure if they mean 70 by composite score or separetly. I scored a 93 on my math section but a 58 on my reading section. composite score of 76%. I'm really scared that my reading score will cause me to not be considered but I have nothing to compare it to with all of this information that contradicts eachother. Any information would be fantastic. Thanks guys and girls!

They will choose the students with the better scores. There are hundreds of students with really good G.P.A's and NET test scores so that's why they say you need to have at least a 70 (IN BOTH MATH AND READING) in order to compete with those other students.

Yeah, when I took the net on the 14th the girl giving the test basically said it doesn't matter if you score really high in one section and do bad in the other, they want at least a 70 in math and at least a 70 in reading to be considered. If you score below a 70 in one section you should take the test again. However, you can always call the school to clarify this. I've called them a few times to ask questions and they always seem very nice and helpful. Does anyone know if the class is full yet or how many students they accept all together? I finally got my NET scores in the mail today, so I'm still waiting to hear whether I got in or not.

Here is the copy/paste.

Am I reading this right?

I reread this just to make sure it didn't sound contradictory. Am I the only one who thinks it still does?:lol2:

Basically they accept students until the class is full. Our orientation is next week so my advice would be to get all your info together and get ready to apply right after the semester begins. Good luck!

Question to accepted student; what is your class schedule like? is evening /weekend a option...the website is lacking...if not what is a example class times? any info is appreciated

Up Vote Up Vote ×

evening and weekend is not an option in the asn-bsn program. usually all nursing scools are day programs if there is no indication of time. we will have clinicals on mon & tues, and full days on thursdays

Oh so its 3 days a week..at least to begin with? basicly free weekends (till major clincals later maybe) but not a 5 days a week ? sorry for my ignorance..im so use to night/weekend classes i dont want to waste a application fee if i cant do the program.... though i want to do it...

well okay i left something out (i'm sorry) on wednesdays, if you have any micro, a&p, english or other required classes to take, they have to be taken on wednesday's. and our friday's have to be open for tests, or scheduled labs, if any they will notify us ahead of time.
