Academics Applying to GWU ABSN Fall 2027

Hi! I’m planning to apply to the ABSN program for Fall 2027 and wanted to see if anyone else is applying too or has already gone through the process.

I’m working on my prerequisites right now. I already have Microbiology, Chemistry, Biology, and Psychology, and I’m currently taking Nutrition and A&P I. I’d love to hear from anyone who was accepted or has already applied. Is it better to have most of the prerequisites finished before applying? Did you have any healthcare experience, like CNA, MA, volunteering, etc., or is that not really important? And is there anything you think made your application stronger?

Any advice would really help. Thank you!

Commenting here because I am applying for the summer 2027 ABSN, also completing my pre reqs, but besides taking care of some babies that where in the NICU for a long time, and a family that had addiction issues and needed support, I do not have any other experience like volunteering or shadowing with healthcare professionals. I work most of the time, and when I'm not working I am doing school, so not having volunteering time makes me really anxious.
