How hard was it for you to get INTO nursing school. Not academically, but TECHNICALLY. LOL
I am desperately trying to get into an ADN program at my local tech. college. I attended college previously and completed a Bio major and a Chem minor. Shouldn't be too hard to get in, right? HA HA!! :) I'm starting to feel like a trained poodle with all of the hoops that I have to jump through. There are 2 schools that are near enough for me to attend. The one program has a wait list so long that a person applying TODAY wouldn't see a classroom until January 2004!!!! The other one has a shorter wait list, but I don't know EXACTLY HOW long, since I don't want to the bug the advisor TOO much. LOL :) I know it's a shorter list, BUT, all pre-reqs have to be completed before even being able to take the nursing program admission test!
It looks like I may miss the next "round" of entrance testing also, since a specific transcript has not yet been received by the school. How VERY frustrating, since, at this point I can't even request them to resend due to "policy." Soo..... for the next 4 days I'm going to drive myself CRAZY hoping that the letter actually arrives and I can test on Tuesday. I HATE having such an important aspect of my life riding on the Postal Service!!
Anyone else seeing these horribly long waiting lists??? And, what hoops.. er, um, policies!! :) did you have to contend with??
