I am sorry to hear about your news. Although like everyone else has said....it sounds like you are more than qualified (hence your making the alternate list)...... and will without a doubt make it into your second choice school...as well as probably your first choice as well. Good luck to you and hang in there!!!!
Sandman,
Stay focused on your goal!! A friend of my just graduated this past December and she was on the "alternate" list for that class...It is possible...I'm sure that you have thought of this, but many will apply to more than one program d/t logistics, cost, etc...your first choice might not be theirs even if they get in...so there you go -you're in! Stay positive for your next interview and GOOD LUCK!
When I had my interview, I explained my game plan. I talked about loans, lines of credit, and purchasing a row home for low mortgage rates while a student. Explain that you really have it all figured out, and that you love nursing anesthesia. They can really tell when this is really what is in your heart. You'll get in. Persistence and determination will get you far.

Well, I found out today that I was rejected from the first school that I interviewed at. This also happened to be my first choice. What a bummer. I guess on a more positive note I have secured the most coveted "2nd alternate" position. Oh well...next interview in two weeks.
Sorry...I just wanted to vent a little.
