I'll be 45 in June and I received my acceptance letter a few weeks ago....I went from SO excited to pertrified in just a few days. I think it was due to the immunization problem. My records are not complete. So, I had to do the titers. Still waiting for the results of those. And, I have a deadline of April 30--if I don't meet this deadline...my spot goes to someone else. All of this is starting to overwhelm me. Anyone else experiencing this problem? Congrats everyone!!:wink2:

you are definitely not the lone ranger in being a "non-traditional" student in nursing school....in my class, i think we're the majority!! and there is one of the other classes where it looks like a half-dozen or so are sixty!!!

welcome and best wishes!!
