Good morning!

English Comp and Lit (6 credit course)- A

Biology w/ Lab- A

Math 085- A

This summer I am taking:

Intro to Psych

Math 095

This fall I am taking:A&P I

Chemistry

Computer Apps

During the winter intersession I will take:Sociology

Spring 2013:

A&P II

Microbiology

Public Speaking

On my list of things to do:

-Attend Nursing Information Session

-Take TEAS-V

I plan to continue after my ASN to my BSN from Elms College so I'm working on required courses for that program as well.

I look forward to getting to know others who are going through the process! Enjoy the day!

Oh and since I'm sleep deprived and nonsensical, which is why I keep posting :p I'd like to add that I'm sure someone, somewhere is watching this thread and laughing their tuckus off at our neuroses.

I am as crazy as everyone else... I can't believe this day has come and gone but none of us know anything more than we did last week. I really thought it would be today! I am thinking if not midnight tonight, then def by Wednesday. If not Wednesday then next Monday for sure! I am staying up to check at midnight. Has anyone heard with their own ears from someone at any of the colleges when they would be posting it on commnet?

Does anyone know why they decided to do it online this year? It seems strange to me, they send out decline letters and wait list letters. I guess it is better for us because everyone finds out at the same time.

I emailed the TRCC nursing admissions director, but got no response. Surprise surprise. They are probably so sick of us. Lol.

I don't mind that the decision will be online. I can print it out for my scrap book. :yes:

I had hoped however that because the decision would be online, it might arrive sooner than a post letter would. Mid-April is later than most people got their post letters last year. I pray we will not have to wait that long. I've been telling everyone that I should know by the end of this week. I don't like to lie! :cheeky:

My oldest soon-to-be stepdaughter was accepted at STCC. Application deadline was March 1st and they already got their acceptances. Yes. I pout. :sour:

I am confused, what is this registration at midnight you guys are talking about? Thanks and good luck.

we are talking about tonights registration for the fall 2013 classes... registration starts tonight at midnight for all all continuing (not new students), but you guys won't be able to sign up for NUR classes until after you received your acceptance and returned the acceptance letter with a signature back to school. and then only after the school changes your major to NURSING- CT-CCNP :)

NCC's regestration started last Monday, which i think is unfair to the nursing students. None of us knew whether to register for micro in the spring or fall.

that stinks! try taking micro this summer if you can, it's a tough class, together with NUR it's going to be really tough!

that's why I always check on the beginning of the semester when the registrations are for the next semester, cause I don't want to miss it

Micro is full for the fall and summer at Gateway and by the time I have the money for micro I think all the summer classes will be full...I think it's crazy that gateway fills up all the micro classes before new students can even register. :(

yea that always happens...new students are allowed to register a couple of weeks after continuing students are allowed to register. sorry :( NVCC was nice because they kept a few spots open for the incoming NUR 101 students, you should ask at your school. our teachers told that to us on our orientation day in May (only for those accepted). try to find out, maybe they reserved some spots for you guys!

toonsis, what are you gonna do if you don't get into micro for the summer or fall? You need to take it during your NUR 101 semester at the latest! they won't let you continue if you don't take during Fall 2013 at the latest :(
