   Thanks for the encouragement UCLA_Nursing. It is very sweet of you to keep rooting for us! I was wondering if anyone who accepted their spot could tell me if you had to pay a deposit with your letter of intent? I am thinking that if you didn't, th...

   Oh man, I just read my email for the first time today and saw that there has been NO movement on the waitlist as of today. This is the worst news! I really can't believe it. So every single person who was accepted ended up taking their spot?? Aaa...

   Asherah makes a really good point about how it doesn't seem like a year could have gone by... If we don't make it this year, I guarantee the next year will zip by. I know this past one did. One second it seemed like I had forever to prepare for my ...

    by the way, i'm guessing that the only people whose online application profiles have been updated are those who received fellowships. i have been told that very few people received the email notice (that directs you to the graduate site) last year a...

    I did not receive anything in the mail today. My letter must not have gone out yesterday, b/c I live so close it only takes a day. All that anxiety for naught. And to be repeated tomorrow!
