UB ABS 2016 start

Published

Anyone out there applying to UB's accelerated nursing program beginning in May of 2016?

It is a closed group but it says it should be searchable. I do l have to approve people. I just added someone, was it you?

I can't find it either :(

I found it once I searched the name but I searched it specifically in the "groups" category up top. Not just the regular search bar

Hello! Congrats to everyone accepted; I made the wait list and was just wondering if anyone knows somebody who has been accepted off the wait list? Needless to say I'm going to be one anxious lady for the next few months lol :woot:

Hey guys, how many of you applied to Niagara University and go in? I want to know if any of you guys will be attending?

Now that I got in, I'm on to trying to figure out how to pay for this! Any advice on loans/financial aid?

does anyone have any advice as far as tuition goes for UB's ABS program? Not sure what to apply for loan/financial aid wise with this being a second Bachelors. Thanks!

Hi,

I can't find the group :(

I was in UB's ABS program and graduated this past May. It's very hard but it's worth it. I had a 3.8 prereq GPA and 3.1 overall. Everyone I know from the program (including traditional students) passed NCLEX on the first try, which is huge. I worked per diem at a local hospital as a nurse's aide and was hired as a graduate nurse a couple months before graduation, but even those who didn't were working by June/July. Its easy to make great contacts in clinicals etc. Good luck!

This is my position as well. I have 165 credit hours only 3.1 overall gpa (3.9 prereq) , do you know the average accepted gpa when you applied? (overall gpa)

I can't find the group, can you provide the link? Thank u

Hi! Sorry for the late reply I just saw this. The average gpa when I got in was a 3.6 I think, but the committee looks at how good your essay is and if your prereq gpa is high they count that as well. I had some terrible grades from my past, but they looked at how much I improved and how well I did with my sciences etc. Good luck!

Jim if you dont mind I would like to ask more questions becasue you have my stats and would like advice. i am from buffalo as well and will graduate UB.
