Waiting For Spring 2013 Acceptance..Anyone else?

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

I just sent in my final piece for admissions, my essay. Now, I wait. I will find out in October if I'm accepted for spring start. I've waiting so long to get here. Anyone else playing the waiting game???

I applied to Wright College in Chicago. They don't start sending out acceptance letters until December. I'm waiting impatiently!

December? Well....crossing fingers for you :-)

did anyone else have interviews prior to being accepted or waitlisted? What kind of questions do they ask?

Still waiting!! Hopefully next week will be my lucky week!!

Still waiting!!! Someone posted about Aquinas sending out letters the last 2 weeks of October??? I'm SO nervous, that is soon! It's like I WANT the letter, but I only want it if it's an acceptance letter, not a denial!! For those other Aquinas students, how did ya'll do on your Kaplan? I made a 77%...anyone know if that is good enough??? My friend got in with a 78% but her GPA was higher than mine. As a mother of 5 children, the sooner I know if I'm accepted the sooner I can start planning!!!!

I've been calling Aquinas about once a week, bugging the living day lights out of them. I was told by Ian, in admissions that they won't know until we do on who got accepted. I have a feeling he's telling me that to get off his back a little, but you never know I guess.

I have a friend that started their program this fall with a 3.2 GPA and with a 67% on her Kaplan. I made a 70% on mine with a 3.3 GPA, so we'll see. I'm nervous, but alot of nurses and techs I work with that have been through their program or is currently going through it, says I have nothing to worry about. Easy for them to say, right?

See, I don't get that. My friend got rejected with a 3.7 and a 78% on her Kaplan, BUT wasn't a current student at Aquinas. They must give preference to current students. She took one summer class last spring, and BAM, got accepted! I have a 77% on Kaplan with a 3.1 GPA. I was proud of that having 5 children at home to take care of, and a hubby who works constantly! I asked Dr. Smart (my advisor) and he said November we should find out, i'm hoping before that!!! I think he told me Nov so I wouldn't call mid-October and bug him! lol!

I was also told it all depends on how many people apply. I'm hoping not as many applied for spring start as they would for a fall start. I'm trying to rationalize with myself here...lol

I got the same thing, man-nurse, but mine is at a different campus. Good luck with that and let me know how it goes!

I have no idea! Everytime I keep thinking about it, I sike myself out about how I'm not gonna get in. My low score friend as I mentioned above didn't take a single class at Aquinas prior to acceptance. A grad from Aquinas that I work with says the longer you wait the better, as she believes they send out rejection letters first.

Troy M, I just caved and called, the lady in the nursing department said we should gets letter right on or around November 1st. I asked her if we'll get a denial letter if we're not in and she said "No, you might receive a wait list letter, but not a rejection letter". I didn't give her my name, I honestly didn't want her to tell me anything more. I want to know so bad, I doubt she would have told me anyway, but hearing a rejection would have KILLED me. I want a letter, so I can read in my bathroom and cry if I need to LOL! My friend keeps telling me I have nothing to worry about, that I'm going to get in, I wish he'd stop! lol! I don't want to get my hopes up. He got in with a 3.0 and not sure his HESI score (before Kaplan was offered) but he said it wasn't much better than my Kaplan score of 77%

click my name and check my previous posts. There's a separate thread called UCF Cocoa/Daytona Spring 2013 u might want to check it out, a bunch of us on there follow that thread, possibly some of yr future UCF classmates as well...a lot of us got interviews for next week.

Midwife-I called yesterday as well, haha. I was just told the same thing, first week of November. She said no one has been accepted yet since "Ms. whomever" is still going over the candidates. Seems like you're golden, but since I'm not currently enrolled in Aquinas, that could hurt me. To help students like me, they should state under their "Admission requirements" that the school does make currently enrolled students the higher priority on the list, but of course, that's just me flapping my gums :)

One week till Nov. 1st...fingers crossed.
