Villanova BSN EXPRESS 2021

Published

I haven’t seen a discussion yet for Villanova BSN EXPRESS for May of 2021, so I decided to write one?. Has anyone applied or going to apply ?

@tropicalbreeze if you don't mind me asking what were your stats? and how many times did you email Kristin? I just had my interview last Thursday, im so nervous to hear back!

I was told around 100 during my interview because that was a question I actually wanted to know myself  . However , maybe something changed ? Guess we’ll find out closer to the start of the program . I’d really like to know how many people applied so far to the program . If you all were to make a guess , would you say over 3,000? 

I went to one of their info sessions early on and they said they get around 250-350 applicants a year and they accept around 120 seats! not sure if I heard right but that's what I have written down

my undergrad GPA is below a 3.0 but my pre-req GPA is above a 3.0. my interviewer said they don’t just look at GPA so IDK

yeah same my undergrad GPA is a little above 2.9,  I am still taking a lot of prereqs currently so I don't know if I'll get in or not, I was surprised I was granted an interview because I thought the cutoff was 3.0

ya exactly. same. like, if they don’t wanna accept applicants with a GPA below 3.0, they shouldn’t send out interview invites bc that just gets our hopes up

I’ve heard from the director it’s less than that, I highly doubt they accept that many

Yeah I agree, that’s really big for an ABSN cohort and Villanova isn’t that big of a school. My current school has 3x the number of students as Nova and they only take 85 students per cohort.

For those of you who paid the seat deposit already, for the recent picture part do we just email the picture to Kristin?

Could you pay your deposit online ?

No I’m pretty sure we have to mail in a check like it said in the acceptance letter, which is annoying because I would’ve preferred to pay it online too!
