Are there any Oklahoma ABSN students out there?

[wannabe07]

Hello,

I would like some information on the program, how do you like it? Would you pick this school again if you had the chance? I am applying to the program that is being held here in San Diego. I am nervous about the online portion of the program, is it do-able?

Thanks!

Mine does as well with a number EmplID 1717000. I hope this is a good sign! Maybe tomorrow guys?

Mine has that too... Ugh I'm dying over here!!!

Was that really not there before???

I got a financial award letter in the mail from OUs financial aid office.... does that mean that I was accepted??? Can you get award letters if you aren't offered enrollment????

The letter was dated 7/14/08. That was two days ago!!! What in the world....

I have applied as well and I got my award letter awhile ago - I think it has to do with when you filled out the FAFSA. I wish it meant that we have been accepted, but I don't think it has anything to do with it. SO hope notification is tomorow - I can barely concentrate!

I received a financial aid award letter from them at the end of May, and I was thinking the same thing. I don't think that it has to do with whether or not you were accepted though. I wish it did! And regarding the emplID thing... it definitely wasn't on mine yesterday. As I said in the other post, the number was always there, but lettering before that is new. Who knows. I wish they would just tell us already!! It is consuming my thoughts!

[boogeysmomRN]

oh darn... well there goes that hope, haha.

I wonder if other people got letters that did not get accepted, that stinks...

[boogeysmomRN]

Well is there anyone that DOESN'T have that change? I'm guessing it was just an update b/c EmplID is a standard field in PeopleSoft software, isn't it?

[RNkm84]

I googled it and just read that too. You are probably right that it is just a general update.

[phryum]

Isn't EmplID also used by schools to identify student identification numbers? I googled it also and came up with a number of schools that use it for their students.

[RNkm84]

It is, but it could have been from when they originally entered our applications into their system before the decision was made. It looks like each school uses them a little bit differently from what I saw so I guess we won't know until we know! Have you heard from San Marcos yet Phyrum? I have a friend who applied there, but I haven't heard anything from her yet either. I just can't believe that they wait until so close to the start date to notify people for all of these ABSN programs!

[phryum]

Unfortunately I haven't. I never even received anything from San Marcos regarding my pre-admission advising so I am not sure if they even received my final transcripts! Oh well though, San Marcos isn't my first choice, I would rather go through Oklahoma's program. I calculated that San Marcos' program would be 20 months total including this fall (the nursing portion doesn't really start until Spring '09) versus OU's 14 month program. I think other people have already received their acceptances though. The anticipation for OU is killing me! And probably killing everyone else too.

Well good luck! Hopefully we'll know tomorrow!
