well i guess i should be happy its better than nothing, my status says alternate pending seat avail, so i guess if someone drops, or defer, ill get the spot. I still have not gotten any emails either. I dont know whether i should be excited, but im not, however its better then nothing.

i guess theres real competition this time. or it could just be all those people that deferred in may that secured there spot for fall.

hey if your program admit status says N you need to go see your advisor so they can clear that up.. if not you wont be able to see where your at or what ur requirments are

nursingstudent....did you say you had 10 pts? someone in my micro class said they had 9 and got in. Thats weird. Maybe she had 10 and thought she had 9. I know someone with 8 and she got alternate status.

About the N under Program Admit Status- I went into the health science admissions office today and asked about that. I was told that its supposed to be N until you fill out the contract saying you will be accepting your seat into the program. She also said NO emails have gone out yet, but hopefully soon. She said they have to finish updating everyone's status'.

yea that is weird i have 10 pts, i have a 3.3 gpa plus i got the 1 point for broward county resident. Do people that is placed on alternate ever really get in, i mean its better then denied right. Im feeling so discouraged im going to the school tomorrow to see whats going on.

Keep your head up nursingstudent....

Last semester, at the orientation, they told all the alternates they were in. Now, that was last semester and I don't think there was as many applicants, but alternates do get in every semester. There are people who decline their seat altogether for whatever reason. There are people who will defer their seat, too. So alternates will get in. Last semester there was someone who was declined at first, then changed to an alternate, then was accepted. There is hope.

As far you having 10 pts and not getting in......I'm still baffled as my classmate also has 10 and got in. She had all the general ed classes done EXCEPT micro (we're in the class right now). Did you have all of your gen ed classes done? I need to ask the other classmate who says she has 9 pts if she has 9 for GPA or 9 total. maybe she didn't realize she had a pt for being a broward resident.

Be careful talking to the health science dept, at least at central! My friend went in there today to figure out what her status meant (hers said "online applicant" not accepted, denied, or alternate) and she just about had her head chewed off. I'm sure they are really sick and tired of all us nursing applicants by now.

Hey what is the difference between defer and decline and I confused? Also, someone said I can see in my degree audit that I got accepted, where can I find that?

GabbsRN · Jun 17, 2009

Decline- you turn down the seat completely.

Defer- you turn down the seat for this term, but you want it for the next term

Once you sign in, go under the tab at the top that says "Advising" and on the drop down menu you will see "Degree Audit". Click on that and it will bring you to another screen. On that screen, near the top, a few lines down, around the middle, you will see "Program Admit Status:" and there will be an N or a Y.

However, my limited app status says Accepted, and my degree audit says N. I checked with health science and they said it doesn't matter what the degree audit says, if it says accepted, you're accepted.
