I'm not getting in :(

I called the school today and they said that letters have been sent out for Fall 2012 and according to my date of completion, I'm not getting in. The lady said that they only made it up to the date of completion of may 2011 and my date of completion is dec. 2011. Even though I figured that I wouldn't get in, I was still hopeful. Oh well, I guess I'll be waiting yet again. :crying2:

Keep your head up! I'm sure you'll have your spot next year :)

Thanks, I hope so. I'm so tired of waiting, its so frustrating!

I am sorry. I am sure you will get into the next start. Just keep taking it one day at a time.

If there is a way to make your application more attractive, do it. Get a phleb cert, a CNA cert, an EMT cert, etc, just to make your app stand out and it shows you were continuing to try to improve yourself after you were rejected. At least this is gonna be my strategy. I'm also waiting for word on acceptance and I am worried it's a big fat no.

Date of completion May 2011?

Yeah I was confused by that too. Did you mean 2012, and does that mean when your pre-reqs will be finished?

So sorry to hear that, Jennifer! :cry: There is a very good chance you'll get in next time, though, since they made it up to May 2011!!!

NicholePC13 & PrayToTheUnicorn, I think what she means by "date of completion" is the application's date of completion (correct me if I'm wrong, Jennifer). I'm guessing the school fills their classes according to the date you complete the application, and they must have filled the class when they got to the May 2011 applicants, which is why she is still on the wait list. :(

Try to stay positive, Jennifer!!! :hug:

Sorry to hear the bad news Jennifer, no need to sulk about it though. Let's try to figure out what you can to do increase your chances of admission. Do you have all the prerequisites done? What is your GPA so far? Are there any admission tests you have to take (ACT, HESI, etc.)?

I'm so sorry! I know how you feel, because I've been rejected three times! But we will get through it! :)

Wow those are some long wait times! I'm sorry! Sorry for my ignorance too. Dang, this whole process is enough to make a person give up, probably weeds out the bad eggs. This certainly makes us stronger!

Yeah, here in NJ the wait time for Associate's programs are INSANELY long, as I'm sure is the case in a few areas around the country. The one at my CC makes you apply 18 months in advance, and that doesn't even guarantee you a spot for that class. It's pretty ridiculous. I wouldn't say that you're ignorant. :-)

Today I found out that the school I have been attending for pre-reqs has changed their program. This will mean an additional 2 semesters of classes before I can even apply. It does not matter that I already have a four year B.S. degree! This has become such a long road and I can not see the light at the end of the tunnel. I have rearranged my life to fulfill this passion that I have put aside for years. The frustration that I feel is overwhelming and I feel like a victim of administrative motions. I do not need ecouragement! I need a plan that will follow through with integrity.
