University of Miami accelerated nursing program Spring 2017

Published

Hello,

I'm applying to the accelerated nursing program for Spring of 2017. I was wondering if any of you are applying also and where you are in the application process? I feel like I may have a started the application a little late and I'm wondering if that'll lower my chances of getting in.

hello!!....but arent we supposed to send the transcript with the transcript matching form ? how did you do it?

It's very easy. No transcript matching form needed. Just order official transcripts from your school and have them send it to:

NursingCAS

P.O. Box 9201

Watertown, MA 02471

(if sending by USPS mail)

More info here.

You'll receive an email from nursingcas when they received your transcript, and another one when they verify it.

Did you all apply for the Spring 2017? I submitted my application and everything is verified, have spoken to the school of nursing and basically just waiting for a decision. I was told just 2 days ago that it would probably be another 2 weeks. I'm wondering if you all have heard anything from them yet? Has anyone been accepted? And what are your stats (gpa/prerep gpa)?

I actually decided to wait to apply for summer. Spring was just a little to soon for me to be ready since I'll have to move from New Mexico. My GPA is a 3.81 and I think my prerequisite GPA is around a 3.9. What are your stats? I'm excited to see who's getting in.

I submitted my application but I'm waiting for my transcripts to be verified. THEN the waiting game can begin. I won't probably hear anything from the admission team until the end of August, which is totally fine with me.

Hello all,

I am in the same boat as some of you. I submitted my application July 22nd last week. One of my transcripts is being verified but the other still has to come in. Hopefully, it will come in this week and that should give it about 2 weeks to be verified. I was going to go for the Summer cohort, but I called the school and told them my stats 3.66 undergrad GPA, 4 years of clinical dietitian experience so they told me to still apply and that they have seats open which won't be filled up until a month or two after the deadline. I'm from NJ so it will be a big move.

Were you always in NJ, or did you travel outside for school/work? I'm a southern girl, and even though I plan on applying for schools up north, I really want to stay in the southeast. I'm from GA so UM is definitely my first choice since it's close to home. Well, my first choice if I can get a scholarship.

I am from NY but moved to NJ three years ago. I am applying to a few other schools but for some reason i have my heart set on UM. :)

Are you applying for the scholarship where you work in Miami when you graduate? Also where are you all planning to live while in the program?

Yup, I'm applying for the "you pay for my tuition, then sure I'll work for you for 3 years" scholarship. My GPA isn't super special awesome or anything, but I figured I might as well give it a try. Anyone else applying for the scholarship?

As far as living... I'll think about that IF and after I get accepted lol

@ rshergill877: ooooh, so what is it about UM that got your interest? Tired of the NE winters?

I'm also applying for that scholarship :) do you know how many people they accept?

The Accelerated BSN program plus I have family in Miami that I can stay with for those 12 months. And yes those winters are brutal lol But I mainly applied to UM and other schools because I have all the pre-reqs completed. For some schools in NJ and NY they required additional courses as pre-reqs, which I don't want to waste time on.
