Shoreline CC spring 2013 applicants?

1. Just curious if anyone here is applying for the Spring 2013 nursing program at Shoreline. I am in the process of applying and am getting frustrated. My grades are excellent, yet due to lack of experience in the field my point tally is only at 101.3. I was just told that the minimum points for Winter 2013 was 104.25! I know it varies by quarter but has anyone gotten in or heard of anyone that got in with 101.xx pts? Just curious if anyone has any insights to share thanks!

   Oh boy, I applied for Spring 2013 too! I heard that minimum was 104.25 too! I am applying with 101.75 points, let's hope this quarter isn't as competitive. My friend (who was accepted for Winter 2012) told me this quarter was highly competitive. I have a job lined up as a CNA, so I think I can (finally) make it in to Fall 2013 with those extra points.
   
   I understand your frustration. I've heard that someone made it with 95 points in one quarter... I don't know if that's true or not. Good luck to both of us!!

   Oh no! If this quarter is really competitive then I'm not sure 101 pts will be enough :-(. I will reapply for Fall as well but the only thing I can really do is try to rack up more volunteer points. Ahh, so frustrating! But we can still hold out a little hope, right? Good luck!

   Oh wait. Did your friend mean that winter quarter was highly competitive? I thought you meant Spring quarter! That worried me!

   Oh yes I meant Winter quarter! Maybe all the peeps with high points were accepted last quarter?... who knows. Watching for the mail person everyday.. (even if it is to soon) and trying to keep my head up.

   Haha! I keep waiting to check the mail every day too, even though I know it's too early. Hopefully we will both get good news soon!!

   My gosh I was accepted! You must be very close on the waiting list, or even accepted.
