Hmm...I think I was lost to insanity well before applying, so that question doesn't count for me.

Sent my application in last month, so I'm waiting, waiting, waiting. I don't know when I'll hear anything from them. They say they do an interview, so I just hope I'll hear soon about scheduling that. Pins and needles!!! At least I have 15 hours of coursework to keep my mind from becoming to obsessed with it all.

Wait until it gets down to the week you get your letter (this week for me). It's the worst. Waiting months is the easy part lol. I'm going crazy! I just want to sit at my mailbox!

I'm already checking my mail expectantly, and I know I won't hear anything for another month. Pathetic, but my future and my family's future is riding on this happening this year. I do not want to wait until the following fall to start. Okay, time to move on and get some studying done!

@ Canut, I glad that I am not the only one with mild application OCD
I only applied to one school, and I swinging back between total confidence (I've got this in the bag, I mean what nursing school wouldnt want me? I rock!) to total despair (There is no way Im going to get in! Im wasting my time with this, I should just focus on something that is actually going to work out, I bet everybody else that applied has a better GPA/more volunteer hours than me) lol you get the picture!
Yes, and heres to all out schools randomly sending out letters weeks ahead of schedule!

I did the same thing! "I'm so getting in!" to "No I'm not" back to "yes I am!" I was even calling my friends who applied too, asking if the mail came yet if I wasn't home to check. I practically stalked my mail carrier LOL.

Good luck to everyone waiting is not easy!

I applied to one school for the Fall. I'm scared I won't get in but I'm also scared that I will! So many changes will occur if I get in. If I don't though, I'll have to take a few more pre-reqs for other schools I want to apply to including retaking chem (mine is expired) although I have the option of taking biochem instead so I'll probably do that. Another school wants an ethics course.

I will be submitting my application in the next couple of days to get into the nursing program at the local University. Just wanted to see if anyone else is doing the same so we can wait out our "acceptance" letters together.

I just finished applying. Now I have to just sit and wait. The "official" deadlines for all the places I applied to was between March31-Apr15th or so, but the reccomended deadlines were all Jan31-feb1st. I didn't really decide to GO FOR IT!! until Feb 4th. So it was a mad rush to get everything in. All my applications, fees, essays and letters of reccomendations are in...but my transcripts from my former college..are not. GRR!! I called today and they said they mailed them out yesterday. SO I am just praying I am not too late. I can understand if I am just not as qualified as some other applicants, but I really hope I will even be considered.

I applied to (2) 4 yr College/Universities, One Community College for an ADN program and even a 10 mos LPN program. I wanted as many options as possible.

I know I have ZERO chance at the CC ADN program because there was the A&P pre-req, which I dont have.

I have a decent chance at the 4yr schools because each of them did NOT have pre-reqs, except for their accelerated programs, which I did not apply for even though I have a BA degree already, because of the Pre-req.

And I feel I have a pretty good chance of getting into the LPN program.

If I dont get into any, then I will cry and cry. but then pick myself up, and take something else at the CC, in addition to the pre-reqs, and try again next year. :)

Still waiting here and I am driving myself and my family insane. I keep checking mail box every single day, even though we are not suppose to hear back until March. I keep going into this rollercoaster of emotions of "I am soooo getting in" to "I have no chance, what the heck was I thinking?" than if I do get in I worry if I am cut for it, how will my family adjust to my crazy schedule, am I smart enough, will I be able to finish the program, and the list goes on and on. This is really tough, we can all do this, keeping my fingers for all you, good luck!

Kmmo320 · Feb 14, 2012

omg I am going through the same emotions right now! One minute I think, how can I NOT get it? and the next I am thinking this is ridiculous that I am even trying!!!
