Maricopa Waiting List / Placement / Timestamps 2010+

U.S.A. Arizona

Published

Hey everyone, I wanted to start a place for people to post and repost about waitlist times, placement runs, and their timestamps.

It is very hard searching for all the information and maybe people will access this thread and keep it updated with information so we all can get some idea on where we stand in line for Maricopa Nursing Placement.

As for me I have a

6/11/10 8:01:32 Timestamp. The placement just ran on March 6th,2012 and I was not placed. On the application website it says that the placement did NOT reach the June timestamps. This will mark 5 semesters that I was not placed (was expecting a 3 semester wait)

I am curious how far the placement ran. If people that were placed during the last placement run (3/6/12) come across this thread and would be willing to post their timestamp and what school choice number (1 through 5) they were placed in that would give an indicator how far away it is.

With almost 2500 people still on the waiting list it looks like it can be a 4-5 year wait for people just now getting on it. :(

Look forward to chatting with all of you and good luck.

I saw on a different thread that someone with a 6/2010 timestamp just got placed for the fall so I have slight hope that I may possibly get in for January 2013. I have a 8/2010 timestamp though. I'm just hoping that there are more and more people who are on the waiting list that have gone alternate routes for schooling so that when they get selected their spot opens up. This wait is just getting really frustrating

My time/date stamp is 04/16/2010 and I finally got placed in my third choice and I am starting this summer. I totally understand everyone's frustration and felt like I was never going to be placed. Good luck to everyone and hopefully your wait won't be too much longer :)

My time stamp is 06/11.2010 8:04:44 AM, and there are 260 applicants ahead of me.

Hi ! This message is for Kevin321!

My timestamp is literally less then a minute after your timestamp! May I ask how you know there are 260 applicants ahead of us?? Is there another forum or website I am missing!? I am SO glad you posted because I thought FOR SURE I would be getting placed for Fall. Thank You! -- Jen

Hi misshinz, the information I provided came directly from the placement department. So, last semester there were about 260 public placement, so out of the 260 ahead of me some will not be placed in a public slot, and some will defer,and some will be partnerships. My guess is out of 260 applicants ahead of me I would probably come in under 200 because of those factors. I believe that 200 out 260 is conservative, so this probably leaves enough room for you. Good Luck.

Wow! Thanks Kevin321!

Okay so i just HAVE to ask..Do you think that there is ANY chance for us this Fall??

I understand that timestamps go down to the seconds of the minutes of course (so i'm sure i'm a ways behind you)...but with our date do you think placement for Fall is out of the questions and placement for Spring 2013 is more likely?

I am trying to stay sharp and teach myself things out of nursing books for when that day comes!! I'm just wondering how realistic my idea should probably be :)

Thanks, Jen

Oh I'm sure you'll get in for spring 2013!! Because it seems the first early seconds of 6.2010 got placed for this fall so I;m sure the rest of 6/10 will get placed for spring. I have an 8/10 stamp and I'm worried and nervous that I won't get placed for spring! This is taking so long and I'm starting to get really impatient!

you are right, i should have gone there, but now i am so closed to get in that i am scared to try something else. i have a child that needed me until now. but in the fall he will go to kindergarten, so i will be able to continue my education. i guess everything is for a reason. however i am taking my cna license right now.

i mean you can still try to get in asu as a "backup" plan. i went to a cep info session last week and they said that although they are still keeping the adn program around, more and more spots will be given to cep applicants because they are really encouraging nurses to have bsn degrees. they mentioned something about hospitals and "magnet" status. gl with everything and whichever path you take i hope you can start soon. i know waiting is so hard!!!

. the theory that every second is equivalent to one time stamp, so forificeems be proving correct. i know before they placed for fall i would be number284 for 06/11- based on that theory. after the fall placement and mesa late start i foundout i was at 260, so 24 placements for fall seems about right. i don’t thinkyou have any chance of getting in this fall, however i think you’ll start inthe spring-providing your open in your selections

My timestamp was 6/11/10 8:00:39 and I chose the late start Mesa program when it became available. I start in September. The commute will be challenging but its well worth it. I was placed April 15th. Good luck to all!!!

I got in Phoenix College Nursing Program. :)

Yay congrats! The fact that June stamps are getting placed gives me hope that I'll get placed for January. I have a 8/1o stamp at like 8:03. I'm crossing my fingers like crazy. I really really dont wanna have to wait till next August to start.
