We're in the same boat. I'm getting so frustrated. I called them yesterday, and it seems like they tell me something different every time. They were nice enough to look up my name (again) and tell me it says my application is still under review and that they are sending out rejection or acceptance letters as they complete each review, and this process will continue through November 1.
Last week, they told me "packages" should be mailed out by the end of this week.

So, I don't know much more now than when I first sent in my application.

Maybe you could call them today, ask what's up and report back to us?

I'm so sick of the apprehension and uncertainty!

Do you think they send out rejection letters first? We should hear soon. I know it is agony waiting. From what you have described previously, you've been accepted.

I've been searching all over this site this evening to see if anyone who's applied to UAB's MSN Spring 2010 program knows any updates or has heard their acceptance or rejection! I've been feeling so ANCY! I came across this post for a different school and feel better to know others are in the same situation They initially said you would hear by Oct 26 then changed it to Nov 2. I applied almost 4 months ago and it's becoming agonizing!! I want to apply for scholarships as well but so many of them you have to be accepted into a program.

I've been eagerly checking my emails all day and the mailbox but no word yet. Good luck to you both! I hope you get in!

Which program were you going for? I was able to go on PAWS and see my acceptance. Also received a letter in the mail. I bet you will hear decision soon. Private message me anytime for questions. We need to put together a study group for patho and research.

I want to pursue ACNP. I reread an email the school sent 2 months ago saying my app had been passed onto the School of Nursing for review in October. According to the email, they will begin sending results from the "application meeting" on November 2nd. So I guess that means it could be through next week until I hear. What is PAWS?

PAWS is the online admission process and registration. For months I would go into PAWS and check admission status. You find PAWS under tabs at top of USA, graduate admissions, tab: admission status. Crossing my fingers for you to hear good news soon. I know waiting to hear is not easy!

I guess I am in for a LONG wait since I applied for Fall 2010. FNP hopeful here! I know my app is complete and the School of Nursing has all my documents but the deadline is a long off. I was debating applying for their BSN-DNP program instead of the MSN program but keep flip flopping.
