<p>My daughter will be a freshman nursing major at Pitt in a couple of weeks. I’ll second (and 3rd and 4th) all the suggestions about applying NOW. Pitt admits on a rolling admissions schedule and will begin notifying students at the end of September whether they are accepted. Apply NOW!</p>
<p>That said, also apply to a bunch (depending on your budget) of other direct entry programs (there is a thread on this forum) NOW. The direct entry BSN programs tend to fill up quickly so the sooner you apply and the more schools that you apply to will hopefully increase your chances. If you need some suggestions just give us some details of what you’re looking for (location, costs, urban ect) and I’m sure you’ll get some college suggestions.</p>
<p>Did I remember to say that you should apply NOW? If not then you should begin today. Good luck!</p>
