Very nervous about getting in this fall as well. Third time applying to a community college A.D.N. program in my area. This is surprising since I have a 3.8 GPA, but hoping that a third times a charm. I also applied to a four year college and am just finishing that essay now. Won't hear back from either until late April/early May. I am wishing everyone good luck!! :)

REJECTION, sort of! I applied to an accelerated program in my area and received a 'Congratulations, you are alternate #5'. So, I guess I will apply to their two year program and will have to wait another 2 months to find out if I start in the Fall. I have to admit it is a little devastating.....but I know God has a plan. Who knows, maybe they will have five people drop out.

Honestly, while I have no idea, I would think that being in the Top 5 of the Alternates gives you a really good shot of getting a spot. Keep the faith I think this is mostly good news for you.

I too was wait listed at one of the schools I applied to - but they do not indicate what number on the wait list I occupy so I really have no ideas.

I know you are disappointed right now and hoped for better news, but I would feel good being in the Top 5 alternates to be honest. Good Luck and Keep us posted!

I am waiting to get an acceptance/rejection letter as well. For those of you guys that received an acceptance letter already, what was the application deadline for the school you applied to? The school that I'm applying to deadline is on March 1st. I'm wondering how long after that date will letters start going out. :eek:

Congratulations kschafer!

dsb_fam: I think you still have a really good chance of getting in to the accelerated program! A lot of times people apply to multiple schools and will have to reject their spot or things come up in life that prevent them from accepting their spot. I know it's still disappointing though.

My deadline was January 15, got my letter about a month later, but wasn't expecting to hear until March 1. So prolly middle of April or so for you, I'm guessing? I hope time flies for you, lala!

Hi guys - Congratulations to those who have received acceptance letters!! Way to go :) I applied to the Middlesex County College Nursing Program in Edison NJ for Fall 2013.. They arent sending any letters out until April which is totally killing me! Every free minute that I have in the day, I think about it. This program only accepts 90 and about 800 apply. My stomach turns to knots everytime i think about not getting accepted. Does anyone else feel like this? I applied to 3 programs total and If I dont get accepted, Im not sure what my next plan is :/

That's when I should hear back from my school! I'm going crazy waiting. Our application had to be in Feb 15th; I completed the TEAS and submitted my application on February 14th. Thankfully, I don't have longer to wait for an answer.

I'm sure there are a lot of people that feel just like you, including myself. I'm not sure how many people apply to the program I've applied to, but there are only 60 seats & the program only starts in the Fall. Every time I think about how competitive nursing programs are, I get a little sick. I know I will be devastated if I'm not accepted, but it's certainly not the end of the road! Good luck to you!!

Grats to those who have been accepted and good luck to everyone!

hello :)

i am from Washington state.. currently finishing my last pre-req (O-chem).. I'm in the same boat as you all - the waiting period is killing me slowly! i applied to 6 programs (5 accelerated BSN and 1 traditional BSN).. just 1 is in-state, but i have been preparing to move ever since i started this process and am kind of looking forward to a new experience! i won't hear back from any of these programs until mid-late March/early April.. i've been denied by 1 school already so i'm hoping that i get in to at least ONE of the 5 left! most have multiple start dates (they consider you for summer/fall start, accelerated/traditional) but of course, that doesn't guarantee anything. other than school work, i constantly check my email and mailbox like many of you "just in case" something pops up early! this is a good experience for testing patience!
