Verah interesting........

Looks to me like it's a separate application process. Don't know what the wait list is like for it, but for those of you on the waitlist for the RN program, it might not hurt to apply here too. You qualify.

Does any one know when we find out if we got in or not? The application date was Oct 26th 2009. I am so nervous to find out!!!

I am also really nervous about the class. Everyone says that its really hard and it seems alot are failing. I want to become a nurse practioner so I need at least a 3.5 gpa. So I need to do really well in the course. Anyone take the course and do well? Please let me know!!

well i too applied for th lpn program for spring!!! man waiting in that line oct 31 was nerve racking. there were kinds of people there i wouldnt even want them to be my familys or my nurse. its just sad the whole lottery style application process. i mean good candidates who work hard and ready for the program cant get in because a person thinks they want to be a nurse. i mean even a little interveiw process would be nice to cut out alot of the bad apples. it is even more nerve racking when everyone wants the evening program just like me. anyone know or have a idea of when we'll find out when we get in. mid november the letter said.

oh goodness!!!!!!!!!!! me tooo!!!

Bad News everyone. I spoke to the PN coordinator and she said they had about 180 new applicants. This is bad because there is only THREE new slots available. I am so upset. I knew my chances of getting in was slim but not this slim. 3 out of 180!:down: She said maybe another ten will drop but that still is a low number. I was hoping that maybe I could get into to Aug of 2011 but she said that looks slim also. They are only accepting 80 slots for that program and 40 are already filled by employers. So chances of getting in for Aug semester are slim too! I worked so hard and spent almost $500 dollars getting everything I needed for this course. My immunizations, cpr, fingerprint clearance card, checkup. They are not sending out letters because there were so many applicants so we will all receive emails instead. I should'nt have got my hopes up I know that. Sorry everyone.:cry:

~ My last post I ranted about old applicants who failed re-applying sorry about that I was really bitter. I didn't know your situation so I should not judge.

I know, sorry I had to bring out the bad news. She also said that the emails will come in sometime next week and they accepted more applications today. Weird.... I am hoping maybe they open another slot like they did last semester. That would be really nice!:yeah:

blessthe marty, i guess that pn coordinator isnt all so organized as she made herself off to be. noone even received notification last week, and now it dec 01.

Yeah, I received an email today stating that I am on the "alternate list" which is what everyone else is on who applied. I am bummed out :(. Maybe I can get in for next semester! I really wish I received a letter though. We all went through a lot to even apply to the program. The least they could have done is actually mailed out a letter with our names on it. If they were going to send out emails, why didn't we receive them earlier? You are right it is Dec 1st.
