UNC-CH BSN May 2017

[Kheventing]

Hey! Anyone else on these forums that are awaiting a decision letter from Chapel Hill for their BSN program starting in May? I was waitlisted for last years program so I am cautiously optimistic on my chances. I was surprised that there hadn't been a forum started for this years program. It's getting down to the wire now and I am beginning to count the days!

I didn't receive anything today either! This is so strange. I'm in southern pines so I'm less than an hour away.

Don't mind at all! I was very curious too when I applied for the absn program (didn't get accepted). I live in Raleigh, 3.57 gpa in exercise physiology and 3.8 in the required science courses. Currently work as a personal trainer and a cna. Cna work is fairly new though, as I just started it when I sent the application in. My volunteer work consisted of some time at the saving grace dog adoption center near my home. While I was in school at East Carolina I also volunteered at the peer tutoring Center to tutor in anatomy and was a mentor for obese adolescents around the Greenville area. Don't get down on yourself if you do not get accepted, Unc has one of the most competitive programs around!!

Both your cumulative and science GPA are high!

I also went to ECU for my undergrad in Interpersonal communications, worked in Medical Device Sales for half a year and finished my science prerequisites at NCSU. Also, CNA certified.

I have been volunteering for two years with the Ronald McDonald House and I'm currently volunteering twice a week at UNC hospital.

My undergrad GPA and science GPA were both only a 3.1, which makes me nervous

😕

Thanks for sharing Ryan! We have very similar stats, so I'm curious to see what happens.

[CNA2204]

Your stats are good so I'm surprised you weren't accepted right away. Hopefully that changes since it's your second time applying. I had 2 months of CNA work at the hospital when I submitted my application. It's my second time applying. Let's see what tomorrow holds.

uncbsn2017,

Congratulations!

I'm wondering if admissions sends out the letters in alphabetical order.

[CNA2204]

Hey guys, I just got my letter.. and I'm in! Well it says it's contingent on final admission of the undergraduate admissions office, so that's confusing. But good luck to everyone else!

Hi CNA2204, when did u get the letter

[CNA2204]

Mkochhar, I got it today, but the postage stamp says March 8th. I'm assuming it took a few days since I live 2 hours away. Have you received anything?

[uncbsn2017]

my letter says the same. i guess it must be a standard letter for all, in case all prerequisites

are not completed. did you called ?

[msB27]

That's an acceptance letter. That's just the format, because a lot of people have prerequisites they still need to complete.
