I know the feeling oh so well to not be accepted. I applied last semester and received the same response you did. I took some other classes to further myself along with an EMT class and applied for the Fall 03 semester and did get in. I was shocked, the competition is tough. Hang in there, and do take the classes that will benefit you. If you can of course apply to other programs, that was my next step. Depending on where you live though, you may not have that option. But good luck to you.
If you just feel like crying your one step ahead of me, I did cry when I didn't get in the first time.
Take care!

I'm sorry Carmen. I'm currently a student in the nursing program that I think you are talking about in connecticut. I think that it is best to put things into perspective: You applied to the prenursing program, not the actual nursing program. You would still have at least one year before you actually would start the actual nursing program. The most important thing to do right now is use this year wisely. There are other programs that you can start if you are certain a BSN is what you want. Goodwin College, from what I hear has the new RN program and it too offers an Associate degree and bridges with ST. Joseph's (?) if you want your BSN. Also UCONN has no waiting period for their nursing program. The prereqs are colege level Chem (one Year), anatomy and physiology, and College English (check with the coordinator for recent updates). Or perhaps you might want to utilize this year to get your LPN at New England Tech and bridge over into the community college (which by the way I really think is easier to do). I hope all this info was helpful. Believe me, I realize your dilemma. There definitely is alot of competition to get into the ADN programs here, especially at my college. There currently is a two year wait! Anyway, keep up with the prereqs, like you said and best of luck to ya'!:)

Hello Everyone,
I have some bad news back in March I applied to a ADN PreNursing Program at a Community College. If an applicant applies and gets accepted into the program and passes he/she would be garanteed an acceptance into the colleges ADN Program. Well, I recieved a letter today saying that I was not accepted because there were so many applcants and not enough seats in the class and that I could apply for the Fall 2004 semester next Spring. I am sooooo upset right now I could cry. I really want to get my BSN so I think that I will just continue to take my prerequisites for that program. I live in CT and their is stiff competion for the ADN Program here
Carmen :crying:
