UAMS BSN Summer 2014

Published

For anyone who has applied to the UAMS BSN program that begins in Summer 2014 or anyone who is currently in and/or has completed the program. I have applied and am currently going through the process. UAMS has contacted me for an interview next week. Does anyone have any insight on this? Or those who wish to just discuss the program or wait out the acceptance process feel free to join in.

I recently applied for the summer BSN program too! I got a voicemail from UAMS to schedule an interview, so hopefully I get another call back tomorrow. I've been telling my husband that it's just the 'waiting game' now. Does anyone know how competitive it is to get in?

I asked them during my interview how many students they will take. The response was 120. I asked if they could give me an idea of how many apply and was told it varies. Did they not leave a number for you to call back? If it were me I would look up the number online and call them back myself if they did not leave a number. I would give you the name of who you need to talk too but the last time I put a name in this thread it was edited & I was told we cannot use names. Good Luck with your interview, just relax and you will do fine. I am just curious what does everyone's GPA look like?

They did leave a number, and I called back maybe 15 minutes after I got it and they never called back, so I'm hoping they call back tomorrow. And thank you! I wish you and everyone else the best of luck on getting in the program! Oh and my GPA is a 3.75.

I have a 3.8 and after this statistics class if it's an A will bump it up to a 3.81 lol. I am forever waiting for this acceptance letter. I cannot wait to go shopping and stock up on scrubs and supplies/books! Ready to get this summer over with!

Me too! I currently have a 4.0 in all of the prereq's but I have to finish statistics and I will be done with it on Monday. I had it last semester but couldn't take my final because I had a baby so I am going Monday to take it. I have a B in there right now so I guess it could go either way. If we were going off the GPA for all of my classes whether they are prereq's or not I have a 3.94. I can't remember if they just go off the prereq's or not.

I'm trying to get into the summer BSN program at UAMS. I've already had my interview. I don't know anything at this time. There is no reason to be uptight about the interview, it was a very relaxed, conversational atmosphere. I will answer any question I'm able, and I'll let everyone know whether or not I'm accepted. I hope we all are!

I asked during my interview what the average GPA was and was given the answer that it varies depending on who applies. Welcome and hopefully we will ALL be getting those acceptance letters in the next few months.

From researching previous years, it appears as though GPAs average around a 3.1 or so. I'm sitting a little lower than many of these folks myself, but lets hope that doing well on the interview will help!
