Waiting on Ivy Tech acceptance letters thread

[Lennonninja]

I thought it might be nice to have a place for us to vent our frustrations with waiting until May 30th or so when letters start going out. I know I'm going nuts already!

How about introductions and a little info about each person?

I'm applying to both Bloomington and Indy-Lawrence for the Fall 2009 ASN programs. I turned in my apps this week with 4 As on the pre-reqs and a 90.0 on the TEAS. My eventual goal is at least getting a BSN, and if I feel like doing homework long enough, an MSN of some sort. I work full time now, but will hopefully only work part time if I get accepted. I'm so antsy to start preparing and finally feel like all of this is real!

Which schools have sent out the LPN acceptance letters already? Did most students apply to multiple schools, if so which ones? I've applied to Richmond and Muncie, but I have not heard anything yet.

Columbus said this morning (Monday, 6/15) that they "hope to get letters out today."

Well it looks like there are a bunch of new posters since I was last on here!

A little update:

I ended up not applying...major problems with it when I tried to, and just couldn't grasp 102, so I decided to let it go and retake it. So it looks like I will be trying for the Fall '10 start instead :) Its definitely a huge weight off though...no anatomy this fall, I will retry it in the spring!

If u can take anp at greencastle, it is super easy. Open note tests, extra credit out the yin yang. no lab tests.

I wonder how far away greencastle is from Indy? I have no clue...I don't even think I have ever been there!

[IndyIvy]

I'll pm you...

Open note in ANP ?!?! Man, that would be well worth the drive.

I know it!! I took Micro there and it had the same instructor/rules for the ANp classes: Allowed notes for tests, final was all old test questions (you are allowed to bring and use ALL old notes). You go to lab but have NO LAB TESTS!! Extra credit every week, can write your own test questions and answer them for bonus PLUS your tests are curved!!

It is unfair to students at all other campuses really. I took ANP at Lawrence and there was NO extra credit at all!

We got out early every single week. Teacher is very nice too.

Columbus letters went out in the mail today! :w00t:

Hi everyone! I have been a quiet lurker for a few weeks, but now I have a question. Does anyone know what the lowest accepted score was to get into the RN program in Lafayette? Since it is so competative to get into Lawrence (Indy) I thought that I would also apply to Lafayette for the spring since I am about half way in between both. I applied to Indy for fall but did not get in with my 190. I am retaking anatomy this fall, both, because I have 2 B's so that worst case I will get in next fall if I can bring those up to A's which will give me 210.

Thanks!

I hope those Columbus letters travel at light speed! I can't believe you're still waiting, that sucks so much!

Thanks, Lennonninja! It really has sucked to wait so long - you guys will be among the first to hear when those letters hit the mailbox!
