UMass Amherst Second Bachelors Fall 2012

Published

Hi all,

Just thought I'd start a thread to see if anyone else applied for admission to UMass Amherst for Fall 2012. I hear it's really competitive....I'm nervous!

Hi terryann...Do you live in Boston? What are your plans come Sept.???

Hey guys, I just realized that though I'm posing all these questions I never happened to mention that I got in. I'm super excited as I have been working on this process for about 2 yrs as I work full time as a High School English teacher. I am leaving that profession:) I'm a 32 year old female from central MA. I will probably be commuting, even though that scares me a bit. I have been looking to see if I could find a really cheap room to rent, just for those days where I'm really tired, not full time. But if anyone else is around central MA (Worcester, Auburn) let me know. Congrats everyone!

@dbabklyn -- I'm new to the site so I can't PM! Email me: [email protected]

I was weighing the locations, programs, and costs. Wagner was $$ but you don't need a car, UMDNJ was reasonable and close to NYC but in a bad area. UMass had no faults except I got rid of my car when I moved to NYC so will have trouble getting around, I presume. Also, I like the 3 month internship at the end of the program -- I think it's a logical transition. Sent in my form for UMass. :)

Hey guys! I was thinking it might be nice to make a group on facebook as well so we can all chat and get to know each other before beginning the program in September! Let me know what you guys think!

I posed this question before, but I'll try again. Anyone from or commuting from Central MA (Worcester/Auburn/Leicester area)?

Let me know when the Facebook page is up. Also, I just went to Amherst today and found an apartment! I also got a tour of the nursing building- IT'S AWESOME. The simulation lab is amazing.

Hey guys I am definitely willing to make the group on facebook but I cannot create a group without having people on facebook to add in to the group! So if you guys want to send me your names then I will make the group and then let you know the name to search on here!! :)

Nice gogators!...I'm still debating what to do. I cannot move out there as I own a house, but I might look for a room to stay in 2-3 days a week, basically just to sleep so it would have to be something pretty darn cheap:)
