1. Manoa Spring 2010 Admissions

   makoa replied to P-LuDe's topic in Hawaii

   Can someone tell me when Manoa is supposed to send out their acceptance letters for Spring 2010 admission? I am on the alternate list at Kapiolani Comm Coll which I thought meant nothing but someone told me at least 6-7 students a semester get accep...

   They will review your transcript and include your points and see your grades even if you don't include it since they wait until after the semester and view the grades themselves. You still have a strong app. You should have applied for January 2010...

   makoa replied to Lisa From Maui's topic in Hawaii

   I am a nurse wannabe and applied for the KCC program--got alt listed for the upcoming Spring 2010 since I have 2 more classes left to go. In speaking with Wes in July (advisor there at KCC) I specifically asked this question since I already understa...

   No letter yet. But my mail carrier has gotten to know me quite well these past few weeks. I too have to open up plan B soon. It'll be okay for me if I don't get in since I know that I didn't finish all the classes yet. But having a glimmer of hop...

   Are we going to start up using the "discrimination" tag again? C'mon, let's everybody get the point already. Since no one agrees on who came first, let's leave the chicken and the egg alone. I'd hate to see this forum thread go dysfunctional again...

   My friend who is in her third semester now had an NLN of 128 and a GPA of 3.4 Augiebear, how likely would it be that one could handle working at the same time. Can you tell me what the clinical schedule is like. My friend said the first semester it w...

   Phew-I wouldn't want grades from before to creep up on me. It's nice that KL2010 found out there's going to be 20 more seats, hopefully this will open a crevice for me to slither in. Waiting until August 2010 is so far from now, but I guess it will...

   Augiebear, Please explain GPA vs. GPR to me? I have 4.0 in all the pre req's and co req's but I'm missing 2 classes still. I've taken other classes outside of what is required (my old degree) but did not do so well back then. Will this come back t...

    Like Calimom said, I don't want to go back and forth with anyone, there's just too much to debate and not worth the time to refute every single argument one makes. Not to mention how difficult it is to type out every thought you have. Ambiguous mea...

    Calimom, I understand your arguments along with others as well just read posts from out of state and military students. You're right, a lot of graduates who are locals do leave. But more than likely you WILL leave if you are a military dependent. ...

    Hey there KL2010, Nice to hear from you, sorry to hear about your dad. Family is first, that's why we're doing this in the first place, right? I think I've gotten over the anxiety this past few days as I sat and pondered about what another 8 months...

    Sorry ctekholm, I went rambling off and I didn't answer your questions! I am planning on taking the test again to see if I can get a better score to guarantee my entry in Fall 2010, and for personal reasons as well. I was very upset at myself for r...

    I took all my classes online except for math because I needed the inclass experience. THis is my second degree & I grad from UHM 12 years ago in a different field. Unfortunately although I took all of these sciences then, I had to retake them. ...
