I'm thinking it should be soon...but just wondering if anyone knows when they are going out...or if they have already gone out. I heard there were 500 applicants for Manchester.:uhoh21:
Hey everyone! Sorry i havent written, but i've been on vacation.
Thanks for letting me know you turned down Manch, Roxxy! I havent heard from them yet, but i just got a really great job offer up north where i live..so if i dont get in this year i wont be too heartbroken (well i will, but at least i'll have something to keep my mind off it!)
I know that Manchester said we could call after May 1 to see what number you rank on the wait-list. Did anyone that was wait-listed call today to find out where they are? I was too nervous! Maybe tomorrow.
I called Manchester today because I was too anxious to wait any longer. The woman I spoke with said that there were 10 people in front of me on the waitlist. I got at 120 composite, so if you did better than me you will be ahead of me. She also said that she still has 15 people who have not sent in their deposits so she said there is a good chance they will make it through quite a bit more of the waitlist. She said that there was a good chance for me to get in, so you probably will also. Last year she said they accepted the whole wait list. So there is still hope for all of us waiting. Good luck.
Yay! That is so great Talulah, it sounds like you will hear very soon! I think it is the jitters, I have been getting nervous too, especially hearing some of the stories that are on here...from nursing school itself to the working conditions. But like many people have said, many times people come here to vent and you only hear the worst aspects of things, so that has made me feel better. I can completely understand though how you are feeling, I felt like after all that work of trying to get in, as soon as I got my acceptance letter the reality set in and it got a little scary.
That is great Talulah. If you only have 3 more spots to go then you will get in. They told me I was number 28 to begin with so maybe I am number 6 now. Wow, that list moves fast.
Yes, you probably have the jitters. Hopefully the nervousness will turn into excitement once you get in, although having to move and go to school are big steps. I already work at a hospital, so I just want to get in nursing school and get it over with and start a new job. Good luck. I hope you get your acceptance letter soon.

Well I decided...I got an email on Tuesday that I got into Stratham so I decided to take it and turn down Concord. It was a hard decision, but now that I made it I feel much better that I have decided.
Jamie-Sue- hopefully you hear something soon, I was #4 so they are getting close to your number...I hope you get in! I can imagine how unsettled you feel trying to make plans and waiting to hear!
