Hi all! Just wanted to see if there are any other BCTC applicants out there. I'm getting super anxious about hearing whether I got in or not, and didn't know if anyone else wanted to discuss our waiting time! Best of luck to everyone. ?
So still no change at 1:48pm. I'm not sure that it will be posted today at all since the website info had indicated the first "week" of April and not necessarily the 1st. I applied to the program in Lawrenceburg (they only accept 40) because I have to be able to continue to work and go to school. I will be so disappointed if I don't get in. I had originally thought my NLN score was fantastic but now am thinking it's closer to average. I scored a 138 (they said 96% but when there's only 40 students that doesn't mean much). My GPA is 3.25 but I do already have an Associate's in Science and was told that folks that already hold degrees would be given preference (I guess just in the event you have the same scores and GPA as someone else). I hate that we could only apply to one or the other with BCTC because that basically means you could end up with 40 people at Lawrenceburg who scored lower than 300 that didn't get in to Cooper. I just wish you could apply for both. I wish there were someone with an inside scoop as to how much longer we will wait and what the SAS screen looks like when the status updates. The waiting is horrible.
Last year, they posted the results on the 3rd (Tuesday) of April. And 2011, they posted on the 1st of April. I have a bachelor's degree, I scored 145 in the NLN, but my GPA is 3.35 (from veterinary school in Brazil). I am hopping to have good chances, but I am concern about my GPA. The grading in Brazil is different from USA, sometimes a C is the best grade in class (they never grade average there). I am applying for Cooper.
Agreed! When I talked to my advisor a couple of weeks ago, she said they were supposed to be posted on April 1st. With Easter being yesterday though it wouldn't surprise me if they were a couple of days later.
I just checked my status, and above where it says "rolling admission," in bold it says "nursing status." I'm wondering if that's where the results are going to be posted.
I'm getting so impatient!!!

I keep checking my account even though I know it won't be posted until tomorrow.
Best of luck to everyone!
