But honestly, after all these rejections, I'm not counting on it.I'm also considering giving up on going to a school this year altogether and applying again next year.Īccelerated BSN Financial Aid 217 | Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing | University | Atlanta GAĭo NOT go by the financial aid website or the nursing website for now they do not reflect accurate information as of yet. *sigh* It sucks because I've been rejected from all other entry-level MSN programs so far, and Emory's the only one that I got into.I'm waiting to hear back from one more school that is much cheaper (and closer!) than Emory. I then asked if it'd be possible to just give up the MSN portion completely and join the ABSN cohort which begins in fall semester. I asked if it's going to be possible to opt out of just the MSN portion if I ever end up changing my mind about it in the middle of my ABSN program, and they said that they "would not recommend that," since that means I would have taken up a spot of a rejected applicant who WOULD have been willing to go through the entire ABSN+MSN. I called them and asked if it'd be possible to defer enrollment, and they told me that they can only defer my "application" and not my "enrollment." Basically, they will throw your application into the next cycle and you would have to compete against a brand new pool of applicants again. Although it may sound far-fetched and extremely pessimistic, I think this is a very possible scenario for me, considering how accelerated their entire ABSN+MSN curriculum is. My worst nightmare is failing out of the program with the horrendous amount of loans still left with me. I'm on the same boat- paid my deposit but having second thoughts. Also, 2016/2017 prices wouldn't been THAT far off from the 2017/2018 prices. Also, Yes the ABSN only calculated 3 semesters, but with the addition of a 4th semester and with not living like a Kardashian, I'm sure that it wouldn't cost 180k before room and board. I'm sure living expenses wouldn't cost 22k + 15k.
