Hi. Does anyone have any info about the UW Parkside BSN program? I currently live in Southern WI and am trying to decide which schools I am going to apply to. I haven't seen too much info on Parkside. Is anyone currently in the program? How do you like it? Does it have a good reputation? Any info would be great.
Thank you!!!

I actually just applied to the uwp/uwm consortial nursing program and i did not get accepted. It was extremely disappointing bc i had a good gpa (3.7) and my advisor said i scored 'high' on the essay portion. I have no idea what they are looking for but they only accepted 24 students this past semester. Furthermore, they do not take the most qualified students bc they have to take a certain number of males and different ethnicities. I am going to apply to uwm in august and hopefully get accepted for spring 2009. My back up plan is to petition to gateway in june for the spring 2009 program. I did 2 years of prenursing at uw madison and then this past year at uw parkside. I have not lost hope and now working as a cna in the hospital- i will get into a program, im not giving up!!!
I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sure you will get in to a program very soon. Don't give up. I've decided to go for my associate degree instead at a community college so hopefully that will work out. I'll find out in the fall if I get accepted. Good luck with everything!!!
