IRSC Spring 2016 hopefuls!

Published

Hello everyone. I'm currently enrolled in my last set of pre-reqs for the RN program. In my microbiology classs, I noticed there is high anxiety because the applicant pool looks strong this year and 90% of my class are nursing applicants. I would like to start a support group, for passing along information, questions, advice, or just emotional guidance. We can all be nurses. We can all do it. Let's help each other get there! Does anyone have any tips for the NLN exam? Unfortunately, I have class and cannot attend the free review sessions.

Spitefire101 you are not too far on the alternate list if Doc got in with 158. I am confident that you will get ....it's only 3 points

Riddle me this: I have a 156 overall, no check marks on my letter and I got declined. Whats up with that? 136NLN (got in on time) 12 points for A&P, 8 pts for Micro, I have a Vero beach address, have a GPA way over 2.5 and everything was in on time. I really confused right now

Maybe it was a mistake Candice. Did they provide you a reason why you got declined?

Were your transcripts evaluated in time? That can get you a denial.

That could be the reason. They got my transcripts from the beginning of August but did not evaluate till after the deadline. If that's the reason I am going to be livid
