university of detroit mercy second degree program

[creativetype2007]

I am thinking about going to Mercy's accelerated second degree program but I hear they lose many people during the year due to grades. Is that true? Is it too fast and should I consider a 2 year program? I am a good student but I'd hate to spend all that money then not make it as they don't allow anyone to retake a class so I hear as other schools do. I am open to all feedback. Thank you.

I was told that they have informed some people and that its not an actual letter in the mail that is going to be sent out but an email. Anyone here that hasn't heard back yet still have pre-reqs or clep exams that need to be taken? I'm wondering if thats why we have not heard back yet when others have...

I'm not sure how they are doing this. I know someone who got in already and hasn't finished her bachelors or pre-reqs yet.

Really ? But its not fair , the program starts in a month we need to organize our life according to the decision . I need to know so i know what to do with my life !!!

I know! During my interview I was told that immunizations, CPR certifications and physicals all needed to be done by the 3rd week of march but I haven't heard back so I don't know what is suppose to be done! No one seems to know when we're gonna hear back and its getting really frustrating especially because I informed my employer that I will be quitting my job in less than a month because of this program...
