@ dia02....The alternate list is a waiting list, if a spot becomes available then they chose potential candidates from that list (I should know, I was put on the alternate list twice @ William Carey). I think they are looking for the completion of the prereq. Because @ Nelle0802 your GPA was much higher than mine & I also had 2 repeated courses (A&P II Lab & Micro Lab)... hopefully once you finish your required courses you both will be accepted... Keep calling they should let you know where you are on the list.... My friend is currently in the program & she says they never answer the phone.. If you have time take a ride to the campus and speak with someone in person....

Yes girl!! When I read the part when it said they were "pleased to inform me" my heart completely dropped! lol! But I just emailed the dean of nursing so hopefully she replies and I will call earllyyyy Monday morning to find out what exactly it is and what exactly I need to do! and its high?? Really?!! How do I go see that?? && I really hope we both do get in!!! and thats what i was thinking!!! and i dont understand how it doesnt go by rank, because what Im thinking is somebody with a lower rank then me can get in! Girl I dont know!

@ butterfly nurse Thanks girl so much! That's what I figured. For the pre-reqs I have left is the nursing intro class and the religion class which I was going to take in the summer anyway! But I will be sure to finish everything and keep calling like you say!!! I want them to get to know my name also so it could also give me a better chance at being accepted fully!

Yes girl keep calling! I will they will get tires of us and just give us spots lol!!!! Hey persistence does work:) And we just need to get good grades all As:) I believe we have a strong chance we just need to keep the faith and be prepared!

hahahaha right!!! Wellll we shall see and hope everything works out!!! Also she responds to my email or they answer my call I will call keep you updated on what they say!

Hey Nelle,

I was told on May 11,2012, that is the last day students accepted are able to turn in there forms if they accept or deny... So that is another chance for us to get in, if not we have literally up to the first class day to be called for a seat, so we just have to be patient and hope for the best.

Nelle0802 · May 1, 2012

Really?!! That's kind of better because we wouldn't have to wait all summer to hear some news! Hopefully we both get in fingers crossed! Who did you speak with? I talked to someone in admissions and she practically said the sane thing, except for the May information! Thank you for the extra info I haven't had time to come on here been studying like crazy for my third micro lecture exam and micro lab final which was today:)
