I was accepted as well and would love to hear input from recent graduates! I noticed the NCLEX pass rate is a little low. Did people feel they received a good education here and were the faculty helpful?

Congrats you two! I recently applied. i was wondering how long it took for them to get back to you to let you know that you were accepted. Also, what are your grades, previous bachelors and gpa? I am curious to see what they accept and if I am up to their standards. Thank you!

I applied in late November and found out around January 5th. I have a BA in psychology from a small but very good liberal arts college in the Northeast, and a Masters in social work from an Ivy League school. They stressed that they wouldn't even take my MSW into consideration; and actually when they sent the acceptance package with the courses that will "transfer" they were true to their word-- my Masters level coursework wasn't mentioned anywhere. My undergrad gpa was 3.19, which is low because my school was big on preventing the grade inflation that was rampant at Harvard and other similarly ranked schools at the time. My grades on the prerequisites were all As except my second anatomy course, which was a C+. I have absolutely no hospital experience either. So all this to say, if you have a low gpa and some low grades don't think you automatically won't get accepted! How about you? What's your background?

Well I just found out I was accepted to start in May as well! So I am super stoked! Now I just need to figure out loans and where I am going to live. But I just recently graduated from FAU in December with a degree in Biology so I cannot wait to start and meet everyone :)
