GCU Summer 2015 hopefuls!

Has anyone heard yet? Last semester they emailed us all like Friday night around 6pm... I was on the alternate list so obviously didn't make it. Fingers crossed for this one. I also applied to St Joes.

I was told that we would know in March this year. It seems that there were a ton of applicants to St. Joe's.

Ahh!! Just emailed Jon, one of the counselors, to see what's up and all he said was that we should know by the end of the month. Not like we're all waiting on pins and needles or anything!!

I hope you're right! My advisor said March when I asked him a few days ago. I'm not checking my email as much now because of that, but I'm still super anxious. Weren't the immunization meetings in February last year? I'm worried about the reason for the delay too. Like there were way too many applicants or something haha.

Right! I'm not sure about last year but I know for the fall it was within a week or so of the emails. Worried about all the St Joes applicants too, it seems like that's where everyone applied to. I didn't apply to AT Stills because I heard it was harder to get into so that was the next closest.

I'm sure your advisor would have the numbers on how many applicants applied to St. Joe's. And I heard the same about AT Still and GCU main campus being the hardest to get into. But we have a relatively small sample size on here so maybe everyone else applied elsewhere. Also, have you heard anything about scholarships? I heard they were going to be less starting this semester, but I'm not sure if that is true.

I haven't heard about that sorry.

Glad I found this thread, I created an account to see about other summer GCU applicants as well! My advisor told me we would hear the last week of February or the first week of March, so I'm going to try to not even think about it until March 6th.

Did you hear from your advisor that a lot of folks applied to St. Joes or are you just going off the thread? From past threads, and similar to what Maycation said, I've heard that main campus and AT Stills are generally the most sought after locations. I applied to St. Joes for my first choice as well. I tried to get the number of applicants from my advisor but they answered my other questions instead :). Not too surprised that they don't want to give out all the info!

inxdisgust, I am going off the thread, other people I know, and when I took my HESI the few people I talked to in the waiting area said they were applying to St. Joe's or the main campus. But I know a lot of people who apply to the main campus already attend GCU so they probably already have a support system and may know more than us, so they don't feel the need to browse allnurses. I know there are only 24 spots at St. Joe's though, so hopefully there aren't too many more applicants out there lol. But I'd honestly be happy anywhere.

And I hope we find out sooner than March. Maybe the end of next week!

Hi! I'm applying to St. Joe's. Has anyone been updated on when we will find out?

segrace · Feb 23, 2015

So I heard March. That really doesn't give us much time to figure everything out. Under two months...

Has anyone heard of the acceptance decision yet. I am getting really nervous and if we do get accepted its not leaving a lot of time to prepare
