UTHSC Summer 2012 accelerated program

What other schools have accelerated programs that start in May??

Zero. But I applied for regular programs that start in the Fall.

I applied as well. April is indeed a very long wait! My last pre-req to take is philosophy and I have registered to take it in the spring, just in case I am accepted.

I'm taking pols 2 and a psychology class in the spring too.

Hi everyone! Im new to this thread and applying to this program. Wow April! It's going to be a long wait! Does anyone know the average GPA that is accepted to the Accelerated BSN Program. Also, is your B.S. area of study taken into consideration? Thanks!

Question: Do you need to have a BS to apply to this program...I have a BA???

No, just a Bachelors degree of any sort. I have never seen anything that specified otherwise. I applied to the Pacesetters as well. Did you?

**Hagendorg, I have not been able to locate much about the GPA's for the last accelerated program. There is that one thread and a few listed their GPA's. They seemed pretty good and doable as opposed to all 4.0's.

Tuttie91, did you apply for the Fall too?

I am getting so anxious! haha I just wish I'd know one way or another. I hope they send them out sooner than April cause then we'd have to find a place to live pretty quick. I'm from Austin so I'm not sure what to expect as far as living and where would be best to start looking.

I am kind of hoping that we will hear something in March. Did you apply for both Bacc2 and Fall?

Yup! I'm really hoping for the Bacc 2 program. I applied to 5 programs, 4 universities total. I can tell people are getting annoyed with me at home cause it is all I can talk about!!!!

Hey Everyone, I am currently a student at UTHSC, first semester. You can look at the Spring 2012 for stats etc but the stats of those that were admitted and denied varied. I remember the waiting game and trying to guess how my stats compared but in the end there is no way to figure it out. Like I said the stats were all over the place. You obviously have to do well but even a 4.0 or a high hesi score isn't a guarantee from what I have seen from other posts. :) Our class has all ages, nationalities, many with degrees and advanced degrees. We have some with alot of experience in health care and some with none. We had 90 at the beginning of the semester but a few have dropped. The accelerated used to be shorter but now I believe is the same length so not sure what the difference is except you have to have a Bachelors to apply to the summer. There were something like 800-900 apps for the spring. Not sure how many they have apply for the accelerated. Though we have quite a few with degrees in the generic. Good luck and I hope you all hear soon!!!
