    Kp051298 -- My last name starts with an R & I got mine at 1:56 pm.

    CabeRNetMama -- My record hasn't been updated yet. In one of the earlier emails NVCC said it wouldn't happen until they have a final list of accepted applicants, which will probably be early next week, as they have asked anyone not attending to emai...

    I think Alexandria is still priority 1, as they have an NVCC campus in Alexandria. I'm in Fairfax County, in the Fair Oaks area. Any of the counties/cities directly served by NVCC (Fairfax, Arlington, Alexandria, Prince William, Loudoun) are priori...

    Check your email, everyone! I just received my acceptance letter! Orientation is June 15th. PS: Wooohoooo!!! 😂 🎉

    Which is why I definitely said "tentative", as it was the word they used. I'm taking everything with a large grain of salt. The reason I called was to explicitly ask about orientation, as I'm currently an eight hour plane ride away, visiting family...

    I just spoke with one of the counselors & he said the tentative notification date was Thurs. June 8th, with the orientation probably being scheduled for June 15th. Finalized orientation info will be in the acceptance emails. He also said the Dean...

    Everyone else get the new (rather lengthy) mass email "Further Information for Eligible Applicants"? It explains domicile review is happening now (one may need to provide extra documents, etc.), then ranking & notifications. It doesn't clarify t...

    I received a duplicate copy of the May 15th email this afternoon, around the same time as they posted the update to the MEC FB page. No idea why. Perhaps it was related to me inquiring about potential dates for the summer orientation.

    CabeRNetMama - I didn't need to submit any type of seperate application; SU awarded me a GPA based "academic transfer scholarship" a "nursing grant" & then the VTAG (Virginia Tuition Assistance Grant). My overall GPA is 3.9 & my prereq GPA is...

    ViviennesHeart - Yes, I knew about the Mason program, but I'm currently missing one of the prereqs (Bioethics). I might pick it up though. I'd have to figure out which program (GMU vs. ODU) is more cost effective.

    vg2481 -- I'd been debating it internally & have come to the same conclusion. Attending Shenandoah will be challenging, but worth it in the end. They've also offered me a significant discount, bringing the price down to 37K, which is still high, ...

    CabeRNetMama -- I am in a similar situation (young daughter, husband will be overseas next year), so the slower pace of the NVCC program is much more my speed. If I don't get in, however, I will power through the 15 month ABSN at Shenandoah. I consi...

    Thanks for the info. At least we can rest easy tonight. Looking ahead, has anyone applied to a backup school, or would you just re-apply at NVCC if you don't get in this time? I've been admitted to the ABSN program at Shenandoah University & ha...

    Nnh7, when did you send in your application? I mailed mine about two days after the window opened in March & I got the notification about it being sent to the nursing department on May 15th. I remember reading something about them processing app...

    That's good news. Did they give you any idea about when orientation might be?
