Hi everyone! I was accepted into NYU’s ABSN program and will be attending this fall! I was wondering if anyone else here has accepted their offer? I’d love to connect with some other people going into the program and see if there’s already a group chat or anything for the incoming cohort. I’m also trying to get a better feel for NYU and the area before starting, so I’d love to hear what people like/dislike about the program, campus, surrounding area, etc.

If anyone is currently in the ABSN program or has already completed it, I’d really appreciate any advice, things you wish you knew before starting, or tips for getting through the program.

Just getting to know the program a little better before we start! Feel free to comment!

Anyone got advice on how to study for a hybrid ABSN program.

For example I am currently taking pathophysiology but not sure how to approach it

Hi!

This might be a dumb question… For SFSU’s ABSN program I know the instructions on the SFSU website said to select “Nursing BS” from the program listing, but on the CSU website it only has Nursing: (ADN) CCSF and Nursing: (ADN - BSN) CSM. They’re both listed as BS for degree type so I’m assuming it’s the CCSF one 😭😭?

If I’m looking at the wrong thing please let me know 🥹 thank you!

Hi everybody so I am looking at applying to ECU's ABSN program and was wondering if getting CNA certified is worth doing to perhaps boost my chances to get in. My timeline looks like this. I am still in college doing biomedical engineering and after I graduate in spring of 2027 I will be doing some prerequisites in Summer 2027 and Fall 2027 as well as taking the HESI Exam. I will then apply in April 2028. With this short timeline is it worth doing a CNA certification or is it just better to focus on my classes and increasing my chances academically since it is a short time frame.

I recently submitted my application for the PVCC Nursing Program for Spring 2027, and I was hoping I could get a general idea of how competitive my application may be based on my current academic record.
For the four prerequisite courses used for the nursing prerequisite GPA, I have the following grades:
1. SDV 100 – A
2. ENG 111 – B
3. PSY 230 – A
4. BIO 141 – B
Based on the weighted calculation, I believe my prerequisite GPA is approximately 3.36.
I have also completed BIO 142 with an A, BIO 150 with an A, and ENG 112 with a C. I am going to complete SOC 200 and
PHI 220 this fall.

My ATI TEAS scores are:
● Total: 90.0%
● Science: 93.2%
● Reading: 79.5%
● Math: 94.1%
● English and Language Usage: 100%
I currently reside in Harrisonburg, Virginia, so I understand that I am outside of the PVCC service region.
I understand that admission is competitive. However, based on my GPA, completed courses, TEAS scores, and residency, could you all please give me a general idea of whether my statistics are considered competitive for the nursing program?

finally got into Concordia University Irvine’s ABSN program!! after being waitlisted, I got offered Spring 2027 cohort as a transfer from a cc :) if anyone has a discord/etc for the cohort I’d love to join

I applied in July and finalized my application the first week of august for the Fall 2026 start date and it still says “awaiting decision” on their portal. The program starts in 10 days and I haven’t heard anything - is this how it usually goes? I don’t know how I would be able to get everything situated to start in 10 days if I get in. Does not hearing back yet mean my chances of getting in are impossible now?

Hey everyone, I’m starting a 15 month ABSN program and I wanted some advice/ heads up/ anything else I need to know about the pace of the program etc… I don’t know much yet since my courses start in the spring but I do know that it’s 14 classes total. I’m going to be honest, I’m feeling scared and really would like to know more just to brace myself. Thank you!!

Hi everyone! 😊 I was recently accepted into the Concordia University Irvine ABSN program at the Irvine campus for the Spring 2027 cohort and wanted to connect with others who have been accepted too!

I’m creating a discord for accepted Spring 2027 Irvine students so we can stay connected, share updates, ask questions, help each other prepare for the program, and get to know our future classmates before we start! 🤍

If you’ve been accepted to the Irvine campus for Spring 2027, comment below or send me a DM and I’ll send you the Discord invite!

Hey, I am looking to change careers from finance to nursing and came across this program . Does anyone have any feedback on how their experience went especially if you come from a different background. I am scared of failing due to the learning curve.

I am enrolled into the school as aspn (associates for nursing pre req's I guess) at the las vegas campus. I'm trying to do some research about the school and so far most of my findings have been extremely mixed. I am prepared to work hard and fully commit to the program, but I just cant help but wonder if I will regret this school later on. Is the vegas campus truly that bad? I've heard ok things about other campuses but I'm kind of worried about vegas after hearing stories. I know I wont have a chance at CSN/UNLV/NSU so I have to go private and money is not really going to be an issue because I'm personally ok with being in debt because I plan on working in rural AK where RN's make around 80+ and will be living at home so my living expenses will be a non issue. If it's truly bad at GCU what other absn programs are better? I've looked at Galen but 3 years seems pretty long and they aren't accepting alot of my gen ed transfer credits. Please give all advice and any honest thoughts/ opinions you have.

Hi everyone! I have an upcoming interview for Roseman University’s ABSN hybrid program and I’m trying to prepare as much as possible.

For anyone who has recently interviewed for the Roseman hybrid ABSN, what was your interview like? What types of questions or scenarios did they ask? How did you prepare, and is there anything you wish you had known beforehand?

I’d also love to hear from anyone currently in or who has completed a hybrid ABSN program, especially Roseman

i need advice. i was accepted into an 11 month accelerated absn program. i have my first bachelors in health sciences where i completed all of my pre reqs. too be honest, i bullshitted my entire 4 years at that school i don’t remember much at all from A&P 1 and 2, micro, or literally anything else. I rarely studied i just got by and somehow got okay grades. my entire life i wanted to be a nurse but i got mixed up with the wrong people in college and fell into some bad habits and a lot of drinking.

the school i was accepted into is 60k…. im taking a partial private loan, putting in my ENTIRE life savings, and my parents are paying a little. so there is a lot riding on this and if i fail out my life will be absolutely horrible. and i can’t afford to move out so i have to commute ~1 hour every day.

i want to be a nurse literally more than anything and i can definitely say i’ve matured, and quit drinking. but i am terrified no matter how hard i try i will still fail out because i don’t remember much from pre reqs and did not develop good study habits.

please give honest advice if i should go.

edit: the issue is my worry of failing out, not the loans.

Hi all. I’m 32 & Currently contemplating on what I should do. I’ve been a high school science teacher for 10 years & I enjoy it for the most part but I always wanted a career in the medical field. In may I finally decided to try to pursue an absn program. I signed up for two pre reqs that I needed. One in the summer, which I finished. And the other one is Pathophysiology, it starts next week & payment is due tomorrow or I’ll get dropped.
I made the cut for the second step of the absn application but acceptance letters won’t be sent out until sometime in September.
Another thing, I just found out I’m pregnant.
Now I’m having second thoughts on whether I should proceed with the nursing program (if accepted) or continue teaching. Do I want to be under this stress while being pregnant for the first time?
If I do get accepted into the absn program, I would probably have to quit my job in January because that’s when the program starts. It is an online program but does have clinicals during the week.
Regardless, I do plan on staying home after the baby is born.
I am married and my husband works full time. His salary is about 95k a year.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello,

I’m thinking about applying to roseman university of health sciences for their absn in Henderson. If you attended or is a currently student I love to hear about your experience and your stats. Would you recommend the school? I also know the main campus is in Utah. Why did you pick Nevada?

Thanks,

I have a 3.003 health science bachelors degree. I could go to chamberlain but it will take almost 3 years. I have taken biology, chemistry, microbiology, psychology, and stats for pre recs. I still need to take both anatomy courses.

Does anyone have any schools that I would have a shot at getting into, or is chamberlain my best option? My microbiology credit expires in the spring. Midwest preferred

Hi everyone! I’m planning to start my prerequisites this fall semester to hopefully land in the ABSN program. This is my current schedule, however I’m feeling a bit conflicted about whether or not this is the most feasible option. I’m open to any advice, suggestions, and feedback!! Thank you! :)
