Admission is based on the candidate's application- did they meet the GPA, did they take the right courses, have they met the prereqs, is their work experience on par with what is expected of the applicant pool, does the candidate demonstrate leadership (or humanitarianism, creativity, or whatever that field looks for...) and how are their letters of rec, what scores did they receive on their admissions exams? These are all parts of the big picture. A person who is denied admission, in my opinion, probably lacks what the school is LOOKING FOR in a candidate rather than where they attended.
Also, there was a thread a while back that started a list, so people can read that list too: http://www.degreeforum.net/excelsior-tho...duate.html
Here is my list, I wrote it out in the previous thread but I'll copy/paste here since I've added one
I've applied and been accepted unconditionally into each of these grad programs (except Canisius, I had to petition and ask for a waiver since I was not a Registered Dietitian) as well as an accelerated (second bachelor) BSN:
Western New Mexico University, MA (Dual) Psychology and English
University of Adelaide, MA Gastronomy
Open University of Catalonia, MA Food Studies *this is an open university
University of Illinois, MA Recreation and Tourism
Harvard University (Extension), Master of Liberal Arts: Psychology
Northcentral University, Master of Education
Andrew Jackson University, MBA Health care Administration
University of Cincinnati, MSN Midwifery
Vanderbilt University, MSN (Dual) Midwifery/ Family Nurse Practitioner
Trinity College Nursing, BSN
Canisius College, MS Nutrition
