Denied into the Nursing program?

The only reasons that I can think of for a program to "deny" a student is that they either falsified their documents or they just didn't get their documents in on time/missed the deadline. Other than that I don't see any other reason where a program would deny someone.[/quote']

Your school must have a wait list. For competitive entry schools, if there are 30 spots and 200 people apply, 170 will get denied.

Our program has an average of 4 applicants for each seat in the freshman class. MANY people get denied every year.

The year I was accepted there were approximately 400-500 applicants for 40 seats in our RN program and maybe 200-300 applicants for 20 seats in the LPN program. That's a lot of denials.

I'm male and I made it in but I prefer to think that my two prior degrees, my 3.93 GPA, excellent references, a well-written personal statement, and a strong interview were much more significant factors than were my Y chromosomes.
