GPC FALL 2012

Nursetobe10 I know how you feel, today has been the longest day of my life!!! Now I am just waiting for my husband to get home and check the mail, wanted to do it myself, but I can not wait any longer

:) That is so funny you saying that, cause I just hang up the phone with my roomate...callled her to see if she's at home to check the mailbox and tell me if there is a big or small envelope for me from GPC :)...but I'm out of luck cause she's at work .... I got to find a way to find out before I get home! :)

I am keeping all my body parts crossed you two!

Thanks kiki, I'll let you guys know soon as I get to my best friend of the day-my mailbox :)...I just got permission to get off at 5:30 and head straight home...OMG I am sooo nervous!

Nursetobe10, GOOD LUCK!!! Thinking positive thoughts for you!!!

Metoyou, yes maybe I will look into LPN that is probably a good idea. I dont know anything about it, but maybe it is that time. I really hope you get your good news today!!

Thanks Kiki69, I applied to Gwinnett Tech too, I take my Kaplan test tomorrow. Although I think that school is just as competitive. The problem is I am older, so I dont have a lot of time to waste!!! Congratulations on your acceptance, I know how excited you must be!!

Thank you mg100, I really appreciate it! Good luck with GTC...are they accredited now? I know they were not at one point and I was afraid to consider them. I am trying to stay away from non-accredited programs.

Alright everyone, I'm heading home...I really hope something will be in that mailbox...good or bad...it is time to face the truth. Keep your finger's crossed. I'll keep you posted like in an hour or so!

One thing they seemed very concerned about was how close I was to finishing all my general education coursework. They sent an email last month with all the courses I had left to take, and pointed out they preferred it all to be done by start of the nursing program. (The acceptance package said we could have no more than 6 general-ed credit hours remaining when we started nursing work, and then some of the biology.) I sent them back an email with my plan for being done with everything by fall. So perhaps the reason some people are getting in on the second try is they are closer to being done?

Thanks mg100! Good luck on the Kaplan!!!! Let us know how it goes. I took my Kaplan on the 13th and got mid 70's score. I did most of my pre reqs there and all my friends are there too. Is it possible that we've had classes together?

nursetobe...I'm pretty sure they did get their accreditation a couple of years ago...they mentioned it during the meeting, if I remember right...

Hey Kiki, no I took all of my classes at GPC in Dunwoody. I should be studying right now for that Kaplan but am so over it!! What will do if you get accepted to Gwinnett Tech too?

I got my rejection letter in the mail right now also :-( It is what it is! Good luck metoyou and everybody that has not received it yet. And again congratulations to everybody that got accepted! You all deserve it because I know how hard we've all worked for this.

If I get into GTC too(which I doubt I will get that lucky to have a choice...lol) I would pick GTC. I live right around the corner from the school...I mean literally 5 minutes...and 3 is getting out of my neighborhood... Clarkston is far for me and I know a lot of people...I'd have to leave the house at 6 a.m. to resist traffic to be there at 8... It doesn't matter about clinicals since we don't know where we are gonna be anyway... :) What about you? where would you pick?
