Hi all!
I wanted to make this group for anyone applying for the William Paterson University accelerated nursing program that starts in Spring 2021

My application portal says the same thing! And yea my letter gave me a list of reasons related to why I may not have gotten in but wasn’t specific. I think it was the prerequisites though....the one course that was WPUNJ specific I hadn’t taken (was planning to take in the Spring if I got in, which they said was allowed). Then then I’m taking Developmental Psych and nutrition now so I think it was just too many classes I didn’t have. Also none of my prereqs were taking at a NJ college LOL, so I think that also made things difficult for them to see quickly what was an equivalent (like for my nutrition and chem classes—-took chem 1 & 2, got an A in both, also took a sociology research methods class in undergrad, but again I think just so many things would have had to be verified as equivalents).

ughh... I checked all my pre-req and it seem like im only missing the Nursing Research and Advanced Anatomy & Physiology.... but it did say that these two courses can be taken after being accepted into the program... this is soo weird and confusing.
Yea it said you could take up to 19 credits in the Spring. But it makes sense if lots of folks applied, they are going to pick people who have all there pre reqs done instead of people who need to take like 2 to 4 classes come Spring. Also Lisa 3.7 is a very competitive GPA! The minimum GPA was a 3.0.
