UW Oshkosh Acclerated Online October Cohort Applicants?

Published

Anyone out there applying to the UW Oshkosh Online Accelerated program? I applied and am excited to hear if I got in! I'm worried about the expense and intensity, but at 40 years old I don't want to waste any time getting to that BSN, which is my ultimate goal. I live in Wisconsin but 3 hours from Oshkosh so it won't be a quick commute for the on-campus weeks.

Just hoping to connect with other applicants while we cross our fingers and wait!

Hi csweetooth,

I don't know what they are accepting now but my cohort (the May 08-09) had 27 people accepted initially and we graduated with 28 because we had one join us half way through from a previous cohort.

Oh, and I believe that rn2bnwi did get in and is currently doing the program for the May 09-10, at least that's the impression that I got when she said it was intense but doable...

To those of you in it now, keep trucking, it will be over before you know it! :)

Hello I am very pleased to meet with you. I applied also and I am waiting to hear back too. I am very confident about my phone interview and felt that it went well. I am excited also, this program seems ideal. I read that some people got responses already since June 12th, this makes me nervous. Should I be? I pray that I am in. How did your phone interview go?

Yes I had my phone interview June 5th. I am simply waiting for a response. I am very anxious and excited.

Good luck to both of you on getting into the program!! I plan on applying next fall. I'm curious to know how competative it's getting to get into. I heard the average GPA is around 3.6 and they like NA experience. Does anyone know how comp. it is getting?

For all those who've applied for the October cohort, post an update when you hear from UWO by email. I know last years October cohort was notified by mid-June and I'm hoping that's the case this year as well.

Does anyone know which email you are contacted at? meaning would it be the school's email or your personal email. This is for those who ever recieved an acceptance/denial by email from uwosh.

Also Sas818 when did you have your phone interview? I just had mine the first week of this month. I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

I found out by email, they sent it to my personal email address and my UW-Oshkosh email address.

I had my phone interview on June 1st I believe...
