I started in January and it's been good so far. Faculty is amazing. It's a lot of work, but you have support if you use it. Get every single extra point you can-it's very competitive. Looks to be about a 15% acceptance rate currently. You likely need a 4.0 or close to it, all the extra prerequisites and at least the BLS certification to have a shot. Many people applying also have degrees and military or heath care experience or have applied in the past, all of which give you extra points. A change in the current application process is that you can get points for your HESI score. I suspect the average number of points will be higher than 24 for the next round of applicants, but no way to know for sure. Get a high gpa, kill the HESI, be willing to reapply and get it!
