   Congrats to you guys who got accepted. Myself, as well as about 400+ others, were e-mailed a rejection notice en masse. Personally, I don't care that I wasn't accepted, but the fact that all rejected applicants' e-mail addresses are visible for all t...

   I am currently intending on at least trying working full-time at first to see how it goes. Where I work, we don't have scheduled OT, so we only work 3 days a week so that's nice...but this is, of course, assuming I receive an acceptance, haha. My sch...

   They should just go on and accept all of us simply d/t emotional distress and inability to adhere to explicitly stated timeframes on their own website thus delaying the decision-making of those of us considering fall-back avenues of educational advan...

   Hey guys, I've seen on other posts in other threads about this school how they saw what GPA was calculated by NursingCAS. I was just curious if anyone around here knows how to look that info up or was it something that was just being mentioned in oth...

    Just got my mail as well. Still nothing....I can't help but have this thought "If a school says they'll send out info during a specific time and doesn't notify you of a delay in mailing off said information (I'm just saying 'cause I haven't received ...

    Same thing happened to me but I'm not too worried about it. I've actually had some interviews having left my experience of those 3 months on my resume, but I'm still looking, . Just a matter of time. You're probably not meant to be in that environmen...
