U.S.A. Pennsylvania

Hello All-

I applied to the ACE program for Spring 2013 start date. Just wondering if there is any one else out there who will be playing the waiting game for the next several weeks/months ;)

I received an email stating that an admission decision had been made and is available online.... 2 days after I saw it on the Discover website. I don't know if that was only because I got accepted on a Friday or if it just takes a few days for the email to get processed.

I was accepted for Spring 2013 with 4 pre-requisites to finish up. I just completed micro and Developmental Psych in summer II and am taking Chem and A&P II this Fall. I was accepted a couple weeks before I completed micro and psych so they did accept me (provisionally of course) with 4 to go. Good luck!!

I applied July 18th, it took until about August 5th for all my transcripts to go through. It said my file was under review for a while and I tried to get in contact with someone as well eventually they told me my file was being held by Evan Williams. He happened to be on vacation for a while, but when I finally in contact with him he told me exactly what I needed to do with my application and what was under review, he told me they needed course summaries to be sure they could accept the courses. Sent him an e-mail with the info and got accepted today one day after. My GPA was about 2.85 undergrad but 3.4-3.5 for the last 60 credits and pre-reqs. Only pre-req I need is Nutrition.

LOL, Evan is always away it seems. It took about 20 phone calls for me to get in touch with him and I almost thought it was his voicemail when he finally picked up I was so used to it. He will help you out the hard part is getting in contact with him just keep calling at all different times of the day.

I think Evan is so nice that everyone probably calls him LOL. He probably has so many phone calls to return. I was just tenacious and called to bother him a lot, and he is so so helpful and nice. I spoke to him a couple times today, and he said that the Admissions Board will have to review my Application but that they have everything and I should know something next week. I took a nap, and woke up to check the portal, and BAM, I have been accepted!

I'm so excited!

Thanks JillyPlot and BZieg for telling me about Evan.

Hopefully I'll see you both in the Spring!
