Hey did anyone else apply for COM's Fall 2014 cohort? I am on pins and needles waiting to hear from them. Its my first year applying. Its going to be a very long several weeks for me. I asked how many applicants they received and it was 147. I'm not sure how many they usually get but seems as if its not too overwhelming of a number. I think they take the top 36 applicants with 10 for a wait list. No?

Thanks happy for us both!

I saw that you two were both accepted into COM. How is the program so far? I'm waiting to see if I will be accepted for fall 2015. Hopefully will hear something soon.

I love COMs nursing program. The instructors really care and are very likable and friendly to students. Don't get me wrong its still challenging but I'm happy to be in a smaller cohort. My clinical sites have been great. The only downside is we did not get a lot of pediatric lecture or clinical time. That will change with a new curriculum they are starting in the fall 2015. You'll get 8 weeks of peds while we barely scratched the surface but spent 16 weeks on fundamentals of nursing alone which i thought was excessive considering how basic some of it is. Good luck to you all. Hope you get in!

I'm glad you like it! I really hope I get in. It seems like a great program and I like that they take a limited amount of students. I'm not sure how many people applied for this coming semester. It seems like everyone is getting different information. I've heard somewhere between 130-200.

One more question for you. Are you working as well while in the program?
