VCU's accelerated program 2015

[bbcd]

Hi all!

I'ved applied to VCU's 2015 accelerated BS program and now am waiting for January to come...3 months is going to go by too slowly but I'm so excited too!

I'm reaching out to any current applicants to learn about you and your background...please share! :) I'm currently an Athletic Trainer and have been working in this field for the past 11 years but have decided to take a turn in my career and become a nurse! I'm hoping my experiences will be in my favor.

Also reaching out to previous & current students to ask you your tips for success in the program. Please share anything that works for you!

Okay, thank you!!

Okay, thanks! I was just basing mine off of someone on here who was #12 inititially and then was #6. So, I did the math myself and discovered I would at least be #6 since he was accepted. At the very beggining, before the re-ranking, I was #19. Then, after they pulled people off the waitlist, I worked out that I was at least #6 (depending on if people decided to leave the wait list etc). Anyways, my math skills aren't great but pretty hopefully that makes some sense to you Scottyrana.

So, like, if you were initially #17, that means you're around #4 now - from my strange (but makes sense to me) math calculations, haha.

I just found out I got accepted to VCU! Thought I'd share with everyone on here since I've been asking a million questions about being on the wait list. Best of luck to the rest of you still on the wait list!

Haha maybe, I am trying to get the immunization piece done. Everything else is finished but that. lol. Plus I have a 2400 mile drive across the country. :)

[wrtrldy]

Oh wow, Scottryana, that's a long drive! Where are you coming from? PS: I have a quick question. When you tried to sign up for the NURS 261 did it block you from signing up because it said you hadn't fulfilled prerequisites?
