Concordia College - NY -2013

[rachwabb]

Hi All,

I just sent off my application for Accelerated Nursing program at Concordia College for the fall of 2013. I'm really excited and nervous. I saw the thread for the fall 2012 was quite active and a few would-be 2013 students had posted to that one so I thought I should start a new one.

Anyway, I would LOVE to hear from any posters on the 2012 thread about how their experience has been going,anyone who is finished with the program, and anyone who is applying like me!

Thanks!!

Sure, no problem RachPapp but I received your messages. just to let you know

ok thanks, that is very useful information. I have a baby and am trying to get a better ideal of the timing. I'm excited but nervous, because I know its going to be a crazy 15 months.

its been 15 days since i interviewed! no letter yet...i think everyone's took about 2 weeks? Can anyone comment on that?

Hey lahhere,

I am sure it does not mean anything. I went in for my interview on Monday and I must have talked to two other applicants but I saw a total of 6 people during the time I was there ( which was less than 2 hours). So I am safely assuming that there are more applicants for the 60-70 seats that are available if interviews are scheduled all week ( not including previous weeks on interviewing). I bet it is just the application process.

You might get your letter by the end of this week. Good luck :)

@accel- thanks for that :)

@lahhere

No problem. If I were in your shoes I would be stalking the mailbox.... Let me stop, I just had my interview Monday and I am stalking it already... :nailbiting::nailbiting:

I am not even thinking that I am not going to get in ..kinda crazy but I am sending the positive energy out there. This is the only school that I sent out a complete application out for. I hope to get the answer I am seeking.

Just think positive!!

@lahhere,

Hi, I know how you feel now. I was like you. Mine took more than 14 days. I think it took 16-17 days for me to get the letter. Just relax and believe you will get in the program. You will get it soon. Good luck:)

You are so funny AccelBSN12!! I was there Monday as well and found myself stalking the mailbox today too.... KNOWING that it was way too early. Lahhere, I am sure all is well, the waiting game just really stinks. I am with everyone else though, positive thoughts are the key. I am SURE we'll all be joking about this in the fall

For what it's worth... I was there Mon from 1230-3ish. Including myself, there were four of us. Don't know if that helps but, that was my experience.

@accelbsn- hysterical about stalking the mailbox already. made me laugh!

@seong- that's reassuring to see that you didnt get yours within the 14 day deadline that i am obsessing over lol.

@GinaMarie- you're so right about the positive thoughts!

i'll let you guys know when i hear- you guys do the same! :) :):)

Hey everyone!

Glad to see this thread is thriving since I started it in November. I interviewed on March 11th and now I'm anxiously awaiting the news and stalking my mailbox too! I feel very positive and I hope I hear some good news soon. Hope to talk to you (and see you) all soon!

I just found out I've been asked to do an interview, but I have a question about what to wear. Did you all dress formally like it was a job interview? I've never done a college interview before. I want to be dressed appropriately, but neither under or over dressed. Any thoughts?
