UW ABSN 2015

U.S.A. Washington

Published

Hello you all!

I'm from Seattle, and I am applying to the University of Washington to be part of the 2015 cohort for their ABSN program. I wanted to know if there was anyone else here on the same journey. Yes?

I'm applying to a few other ABSN programs around the country, too:

Duke University

Johns Hopkins University

Oregon Health and Science University

New York University

MGHIP

MCPHS University

University of Rochester

University of Massachusetts - Amherst

Emory University

I know admission to UW and the other accelerated nursing programs are pretty competitive, and I hope to give myself a shot of getting in somewhere by increasing the places to which I apply. The schools I'd really love to attend most are OHSU, Johns Hopkins and MGH.

My undergraduate GPA is 3.91, and my nursing prerequisites GPA is 3.95. I only have A&P II and Microbiology remaining, which I'll do this fall semester, in three weeks. I'm volunteering at a Cancer Clinic, which I do one day a week, and I just started a full-time job at a hospital on Pill Hill a few weeks ago. I'm pretty nervous about embarking on a new chapter.

Any other folks out there? What other schools beside UW are you applying to? Have you completed your letter of motivation?

Let's hear from each other!

Good luck to everyone!

@spaceshuttleboy That's a great choice, especially if you get to save some money!

The UW just called me: I got in!

@spaceshuttleboy omg! what are you going to do?!

I was about to send my Rochester deposit in today. Argh. I'll have to think.

Yeah UW really is an amazing school!

I'm in, too!!! What a relief! What about OHSU, spaceshuttleboy?

@FunkySkunk did you get a call too? I'm so nervous, haven't heard anything! Perhaps means I'm rejected

Hello,

this is my first time here. I just was called like an hour ago, too!! Yeh~

I am from California and so excited about new life in Seattle :)

Lillyambers, yes I received a call. I'm sure it take a while to call all 48 people, so hang in there!

Born2bns, I am in CA, too! Bay Area. What about you?

Won't bother applying to OHSU.

Congrats to everybody that just got their call. :-)
