UMass 2nd degree BSN program

Published

Hi,

Has anyone else applied ot UMass Amherst 2nd degree BSN or completed the program? I recently applied & am waiting to hear if I am accepted. Just looking for support & feedback on the program.

I live in the close to Boston but would travel anywhere (within reason) to take the course.

Ok. I took mine at Quincy college. It is usually cheaper if you take it at a community college.

Hi, I just spoke to UMASS Amherst and they are not mailing the notifications out until November 1st. Looks like we get to worry couple more weeks.

Any acceptances or rejections from the accelerated BSN program at UMass Amherst? Classes start just 2 months from now!

Hi,

I was told we should be receiving letters either today or tomorrow. Good luck!

I got my letter in the mail yesteday afternoon and i did not get in. Sucks. I got accepted to NYU and Mercer University in GA so I thought I was on a good streak. I knew it woud be tough.... since the incoming class is so small and I went to Amherst for my undergrad so I know how tough it is to get into the nursing program because they do not have enough resources. I will be applying again if nothing else works out. Good luck to everyone else!

So sorry to hear that you did not get in - fortunately you have other options. Did the letter say how many applied and how many were accepted?

Thx. No it just says that they had an extremely high number of applicants and that the process is very competitive because they only have a limited amount of resources. But that they will hold the application for one year and for the next admissions cycle in which everything is due on April 1st. Good luck!

I am sorry to hear that you didn't get in. Congrats on being accepted to your other programs, both are great schools. I was told 263 applied & they accepted 60. Still waiting to hear, hopefully today...

Good luck to you!

Sorry you didnt get in, but it is great that you have other offers on the table. Congratulations! I still have not heard anything, hopefully will get the letter tomorrow. The mail man will find me sitting on my porch waiting for him ;)

Good luck to everyone else!
