  2. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    Seriously. My heart pounds every time I check this site or theirs. I told everyone I should know today. I hope I'm not lying!! Lol
  3. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    I'm done with work for the day. I'm going to go home and set up my deck. I'm all moved into my new house but my lawn looks like Sanford & Sons!! Maybe when I'm done I'll have a nice glass of wine to relax my frayed nerves!! The good news is tha...
  4. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    Probably because they didn't want to be responsible for the slew of MIs that were about to happen!!! LOL I am thankful I got an answer so quickly to my panicked call!! I'm sure they got an onslaught of them and took the link down to avoid further hea...
  5. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    Ted, I got the same message. MAN!! Thankfully I was able to get quick resolution! I would have DIED if I had to wait a long time to get it straightened out. I was probably white as a sheet when I read that!!
  6. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    Holy hockey sticks!! It was an error!! They confirmed I am NOT ineligible. Whew! I was kinda sorta hoping she'd tell me what my status was, but good on her, she didn't give it away. "No news is good news" were her words. Man, I'll have a productive ...

    Friday is a holiday. So if not before then, probably not until after Easter.
  8. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    Strangely, it says they received my AP II info on 3/24/14 but it says status "not met". I'm pretty sure I got a B in that. I didn't get an ineligible email so I guess that's good? Got a promotion at work and am buying a house (moving in this week)....

    I was waitlisted last year. #18. Throwing my hat into the lottery again this year. 89% on TEAS-V and 3.86-ish GPA. We will see what happens.
  10. CCC-NP Waitlist-2013

    Were you guys aware that you had to submit a spring transcript to remain on the waitlist??? I had no idea!! I got a letter in the mail that they had to take me off the list because I was "ineligible" because I didn't complete the A&PII!!!! What?!...
  11. CCC-NP Waitlist-2013

    Bawahahahaha!! Well, this ship has sailed. He got back to me today and told me that even if I were accepted THIS Fall on the wait list, I wouldn't start NURS 201 until Fall 2015!!! START!!!! And with that, I wash my hands of the CCC-NP. Best of luck ...
  12. Single moms, daycare and day shift

    Additionally, while I do fully support encouraging independence in my children (especially my son with diabetes) there are other "big scary boogie men/women" to worry about. Called DCF. School Counselors and the like. I would burn out my keyboard try...
  13. Single moms, daycare and day shift

    Oh shoot and regarding school, I've taken as many classes as I can online except for Pharm courses but I can't take those until I'm accepted. An all online course isn't an option because I can't use financial aid/student loans to pay for it. At least...
  14. Single moms, daycare and day shift

    Where I live is quite rural. No community centers around. The nearest high school is 1/2 hour away. My kids are 11, 10 and 7. My 10 yr old is a T1D. The neighborhood I live in is a seasonal lake community. There are very few families left here during...
