I'm waiting as well. Glad to see you two on here! The counselor that did my point count review said letters are going out March 25th. Do you mean that 300 people passed their PSB as well? If so, wow those are scary competitive numbers!! This is my first year applying to nursing school and we're moving to the area in June. Have you all applied before and do you mind if I ask you what your point total was(mine was 290)? I asked the counselor what the range of points were for last year's students that made it into the program and she said this year they were counting the PSB scores differently so she couldn't tell me whether I was even competitive or not. Anyway, look forward to hearing from you all!

At least we know that the field was slightly weeded out, even if it leaves more qualified applicants to compete against, I cant wait till this coming up weekend (when the letters should be sent) I've been waiting since october when i applied. This is my first time applying and am scared to death that I wont get in, I also asked the advisor about any hint towards what the numbers looked like and got nowhere. My points I wish were higher, overall I have 331, the spelling on the PSB completely killed my score, barely made the cutoff on it! I wish I had some idea on the applicant "pool". Good luck to everyone applying! Hope to be meeting ya'll at orientation in the summer!

I'm SO glad that I'm not the only one F R E A K I N G out!!! I'm so impatient with waiting to hear about changes that affect my future!!! I feel like this process has lasted forever. I got a 309, which I'm bummed about. I did good on the PSB, but I really lack the pre-reqs and I would rather do them while in the program than do more school before getting in. All of my appendages are crossed, even my boss asks every time I see her if there is news, she may be more impatient than I am!!

This is the only school I applied to, so hopefully other applicants will end up accepting other offers leaving more room for people like me!!

I really wish there was some kind of online update letting us know the news instantly instead of having to wait and being kept in the dark about any changes with the time frame or what the status is. I get nervous every day I drive home wondering if there's a letter waiting, I know, I'm obsessed!

Good luck to EVERYBODY! I hope there is GREAT news in the mail ASAP!!

Completely freaking out for a few months now, just getting worse everyday, should be hearing this weekend, letters mail out Friday, takes a day to get to my house, wish I could just pick it up straight from school!!

YES, MONTHS! It started for me in July when I applied to CFCC and has lasted this long, I'm surprised I've survived, but I'll be heartbroken if I don't get accepted! I really hope they send them out this weekend, I don't know how much longer I can wait!

Hopefully the wait will only be another 3 days, good luck to everyone on here! Hope to see ya'll at orientation in the summer!

Just got my letter too, no go. I dont know what I am going to do now, that was my one school.

Courtney0616 · Mar 24, 2011

278... i only got a 38 on the spelling part of the psb...that killed me... and i have a C in eng. which to honest even if i got an A would have only given me 2 more points so.... im so bummed 2 girls in my CNA class didnt get in either.... 1 girl knows 2 ppl that did get in today...they had 360 and 380 in case you guys were wondering where the range fell.....thats all i have heard so far on points that made it in....

sorry everyone!

I also got my letter today and didn't get in. I'm pretty bummed about it! I got amazing scores on the PSB, so the classes really hurt me in the end. I guess it was an extra competitive year. We'll see if I try for next year!
