Getting impatient

Yes, I am anxious too. I should be getting a letter sometime in the next couple of weeks. Some days I am pre-occupied and not anxoius, and other days I am so anxious that I feel like throwing up. Today is one of those anxious days. Hopefully we get some good news soon!

I am like a person crazy with impatience! I know it's not rational, because like you guys, I have a couple/few more weeks to go. But I still check the mail with a little blind hope that there will be a letter from the program :) I have the patience of a toddler in a puppy/candy store...

Good luck and I hope you get the letters you are waiting for soon with great news!

yup! everyday im checking my emails i applied to 3 schools i already got 1 rejection letter but i have 2 to go im so anxious im calling at least once a week asking different questions from how many applicants applied, how m any is going to be accepted, what is the average scores they are seeing, to when they are sending out rejection/acceptance letters!! im just hoping everytime i call i get someone different and they give me a better answer than the person i talked to before...:uhoh21:

I am completely wigging out. Some people have already been accepted at my school of choice. I have a low cumulative GPA so I am worried and rightly so I should be. It has been a month since I applied and my application was supposed to be reviewed after completion. I finally broke down today and emailed to know if there was a time frame in which I could expect some news and the response was two more weeks. Getting rejected means going back to school for even more chemistry, a nutrition class, and getting my CNA so that I can apply at other programs that had way more pre-reqs. I don't like staring down the possibility of another year of pre-reqs and applications.

Thank goodness I'm not the only one!! I have contemplated emailing or calling to find out what the statistics are for the applications that have been reviewed, but I'm too chicken . I really want to ask when the letters will definitely be going out, but I know that our school's website says, "...by the first week of May," so I don't want to call and someone be rude or mean. I'm just so worried! If I've calculated correctly from previous years' dates, there's at most 10 days left to wait. Gahhh!!! I hope everyone gets their wonderful acceptance letters soon! :)

I think calling is a no no. They are swamped. Email is better. But you do have a date sortof, and that was more than I had! We'll all have to wait... and wait... it's making me nuts!

I'm still scared to even email! I know I should be patient and wait it out, and honestly, I probably know everything that they could tell me (when the letter is going to come, how high the GPAs are, etc.). But, I guess I really just want to get some sort of feedback from the committee. Maybe they should send out a, "We're just checking on our prospective nursing students! We hope you're enjoying your last couple of weeks of school, and it won't be long before letters come out" -kind of thing. I do know that they started the selection process at the beginning of April. Though, how long can it really take?? There are no interviews, essays, or anything like that. Just GPA, how many hours completed, and that's basically it! Seems to me like this process could be done within a day or two. Anywho, I suppose I'm just getting too worked up over this. I could try to get my mind off of this, but easier said than done, right? Fingers crossed we can all make it through until we get our acceptance letters!!

Well these people do have admissions as their full time job year round, and then this stuff is piled on at certain times of the year. Evaluating transcripts, letting people know what's missing, and of course stopping everything they're doing to answer the phone and field calls from people like us :). Just wait ti out until May! Sucks but that's what you should do.

Well I am also getting impatient! I have already received my letter, but I am on the alternates list! It is killing me to know if I will receive a call or not...Please pray for me...

Yes I stalk my mail everyday. I keep saying that I am only going to check once a week, but I just can't stop! In the past I have gotten a letter at the begining of the month that they are due to go out.

What number are you and what school?
