Turned in MGH ABSN app!!! MGH Applicant thread

SEAnnie · Nov 2, 2010

Hello!! I also recently sent in all of my applications, including one to MGH's ABSN program and am excited to begin hearing back from programs. Is MGH your top choice?

I am currently in the Pacific Northwest and would love to hear people's opinion of this school. Thanks in advance!!!

MGH is definitely my top choice for a lot of reasons. I visitedearly this year and loved the hospital. I hear a lot of good feedback from people there. Another reason is that my significant other is starting his residency there next year (and for the next 4 years) so it would also be extremely convenient and awesome if we both went to MGH. I'm also applying to UMassBoston, Simmons, and Curry. Its soooo hard waiting to hear back until Dec/Jan

i also completed my app for mgh. very nervous, since it's my first choice. i've heard great things about the program. i really like that it's only 14 months (vs 16-24 for some of the others in the area), and you get a shot at some top notch clinical placements.

i'm disappointed they don't interview. i agonized over my essay since i was my only real chance to be something other than a set of gpas.

from what i heard, last year at least some of the admissions decisions didn't go out until feb, but hopefully we hear by late dec/early jan like they said.

good luck to all of you and hopefully we'll be meeting up in may!
