UMDNJ Newark Spring 2010 Accelerated BSN

Published

Hi everyone!

I just got my acceptance letter and am super excited!!! :yeah:

So I wanted to post and see who some of my new friends are going to be! Let me know if you are accepted and I'd love to chat with you!

umm it says an estimate of $300 on the info sheet

OK... Hoping it was a typo lol

I just got my info on Thursday....so Friday was out of the question....Oh well!

Congratulations of all you that have gotten accepted!!! I wish I was on that side already. I will be finishing my bachelors at an ivy league univ (I mention this bc my GPA is low so I was wondering if there will be any consideration) in May2010.... I am applying to UMDNJ to start in the fall because I still need to finish prereqs and take some over because of low grades. My GPA at my school is currently 2.6-hopefully I get it to a 2.75 by graduation. I did take 3 prereqs at Bergen CC and have a GPA of about 3.5. Because Ive been in school for 4 years doing my bachelors I dont have much of a resume and I have gotten Cs in my phych classes. Do you guys think I will have a chance? I really need to get in this program because I need to start working as soon as possible...time are rough...I would appreciate as much help advise as possible. I am also looking to apply Pace NYU New Jersey City University (what do you guys think about this school?) Rutgers and felician. I really dont know much of the schools, so busy writing a thesis and trying to graduate already,

I wish I had a better answer for you. But unfortunately UMDNJ states very clearly that without a 3.0 in your undergrad you will not be considered. I know many people who got rejected for this fact unfortunately. But don't give up! You can make it.. I had a poor freshman year GPA and worked hard to get it up by the end... and I finally made it to my dream :-). Good luck!

Congrats to you all.. I hope to get accepted for May 2010.. We'll see :)

How are you guys doing so far??

Specializes in Critical Care, Postpartum.

Hey, if you're looking to hear from people who have graduated or are currently in the program, I would advise you to go here: https://allnurses.com/new-jersey-nurses/any-umdnj-nursing-437310.html and hit them up with lots of questions. They have been very helpful sharing their experiences.

Hi Bus to Health,

How are you? I am applying for May admission as well. Have you submitted your application yet or heard back?

Thanks!

Hi JazzyJJ-

So far so good.. I just sent my application in today.. I expressed it over to Newark. I went to an info session and was told to send a copy to Stratford as well.. Wait.. are you applying to Stratford? I just noticed that this thread is for Newark :(

Hi,

No, I applied to Newark. Why did they tell you to apply to Stratford as well?

Ohh I am applying to the program in Stratford and apparently they review your application in Newark.. I sent a copy to Stratford just so that they had a copy on hand.. (I don't know- They suggested we send them a copy so I did.)

So I am finishing up my last two pre-reqs and I am applying very soon. I was just curious what kind of GPA those that got accepted had? I would like to see how I stack up.. Thanks for the help.. Love this site..
