Hello,
Was anyone accepted into the UPMC Mercy School of Nursing Class of '14 which is starting in August of 2012? I was and I was looking forward to meeting other who have been as well!
Hi rae2181, in order for A&P to transfer in, you need to have A&P 1 and 2 completed at the same school. Also, I believe St.Margaret is the only UPMC nursing school that requires pre-reqs to be completed before applying because they have a shortened program. Shadyside and Mercy do not require you to have pre-reqs completed first, but it makes your course load a little more manageable if you have your college courses completed first. But again, not required for Shadyside nor Mercy.
Don't be nervous. Relax, review if you need to. I honestly didn't because I had just finished a year of prerequisites. BE PREPARED for after you pass the test. There is a ton more work to do and just because you pass the test it does not mean you get in. Have a good essay. Put ALL schooling on the application, even if its a tech or certificate school. They are def tough there, just make sure you get your stuff done! Let me know if you have anymore questions!

Every non nursing course should transfer.
