I applied for the RN program at my college back in Dec. I won't find out until the end of January or maybe a bit later. The wait is killing me especially since I am still on Christmas break and classes don't resume for me until Wed. I completed all of my pre reqs for this college so I took a few fluff classes this semester to keep me busy so I won't be stressed out.
There are days when I feel really confident and tell myself "you'll get in. you did good in all your classes. you have nothing to worry about". Then I have moments when I am very, very anxious and fear that I may get put on a waitlist until 2014 or not accepted at all due to other students with slightly more competitive and better grades than I am. I end up on the verge of tears.
I am under pressure from my family because they are expecting me to get in and I don't want to let them down. if I don't get in I'll be so embarassed and I fear that they will lose faith in me. My parents do not understand the whole college process, they didn't even understand why I was taking all those classes without being in nursing school. so if I dont get accepted they'll be asking me all these questions about what am I going to do with my life, and why am I still taking courses if I am not in the nursing program. If I get accepted the concept will be much easier for them to understand than hearing me explain to them that I need to apply to different schools or take an extra course because this school requires it
I wish it was Feb already! The deadline is the 1st. From last years class they sent out them out right after and they got to students around my birthday before valentines day. I would be out of this world happy if I could get my present to be my acceptance letter!
Ugh I hate waiting though! I just wake up and say another day to go!
Since we are all waiting what is the first thing you will do when you see that letter?
I think I might just hold onto it and pray. I promised my husband I'd wait for him to open it.
We plan on going to a restaurant and at dessert opening it.
I'm going to rip it open immediately. Well, not immediately. I'll first cross my fingers, say a pray (and I'm not even religious, lol!) and open it in a nice quiet space in my house. I'll have to do it within the first 5 minutes of it being in my hands because my stomach simply cannot tolerate that much churning for too long.:uhoh21:
I am right in here with you all! I turn my application for the BSN program at Southern Miss tomorrow! I have heard that we won't know anything for 4-6 weeks! I am so nervous!!!!!
Do you know what TEAS score they require? Will they take the highest score ?
(Some schools take the most reccent, first - each has their own
policy)
Best of luck !
^ My school requires above a 70% in everything and will take the highest. They only consider Math and Science and I got an 82.2% in Math and an 83.3% in Science. I'm really hoping that's good enough to get in.
And when I get the letter, I'll definitely rip it open probably standing right at the mailbox, LoL!
I have to say that I am waiting right along with the rest of you, but probably for longer than most. Our school says you will know by MAY!!!! (My Micro prof from last semester said April, but still....)
I've waited for almost 20 years. I guess another few months won't kill me. I wish you all the best of luck!
I wish you all the best of luck!
