Woohoo! I AM IN!!!! Yay!

Congrats to you as well :yeah:

I remember wanting to get everything way before classes started. Though for me I was on a waiting list, and got a call one month before classes started so I actually had to rush to get paperwork done, financial aid, etc. I just wish they hadn't changed to the new edition of the med/surg book after my 1st quarter....couldn't sellt he darn thing LOL. Now that I'm getting ready to start working basically med/surg I'm glad I kept my book.

Also ladies, you will hear lots of people try to scare you about the HESI. Its not that bad. Though it honestly isn't anything like the NCLEX in the style of questions. Study, but don't obsess. Breathe and ask for help when you need it. Heck, ask BEFORE you think you'll need it.

Congratulations 1stLady2 and preemiemama!! I bet you are so relieved!! I had no idea you could call to find out. I will call tomorrow!! I'm really nervous now! Did you just flat out say, "Did I get accepted?" How did you ask her? That's probably a very silly question...sorry! I'm just so nervous now...haha!!

Lpntxn1 · May 10, 2009

Good luck to both of us!!

Lasdrs07,

I wondered what to ask too....so, it's not sooooo silly! I just said "I haven't recieved my acceptance letter in the mail yet, would you mind telling me if I have been accepted? I really need to start making arrangements now if in fact I have been accepted."

lasdrs07 · May 11, 2009

Thank you so much preemiemama! I am sooooooo nervous about calling tomorrow...haha!!

Lpntxn1 · May 11, 2009

Best of luck to both of you ladies!!! Lasdrs07, you are not alone. I was wondering how to ask as well.....lolololol. All I said was, "I was calling to get the status of my application". I didn't know you could call either, but I figured it was worth a try. I just couldn't keep stalking the mailman for fear he would bring me up on charges:D I'll be waiting to congratulate you both:) Good Luck!
