I have three more pre-req classes after this semester before starting nursing classes. I would love to "meet" some people online that are also attending Jeff Davis in Brewton, Alabama.
I turned in my app for nursing school and had a point score of 147...not sure if it's good enough yet. What have you heard about the point requirements?

147 is probably good. I have corresponded with a lady who had a 139 and was an alternate, but she didn't make it in. I am praying that I will get in, but I only have 138. I am taking Micro this semester at PJC, but have B's in A&P 1 and 2. At Faulkner State, I was told no one has gotten in there with less than 160. I am thinking that doesn't include the alternates.

oh tabacue, i hope what you heard at faulkner state isn't true, i only have a 151...i guess we all need to keep our fingers crossed and keep in touch!! thanks to all of you for your imput.
Definitely, keeping everything crossed. The info came from the Nursing Program Admin, soooo probably pretty much true. She also said it would take about 3 weeks to send out letters so maybe (if we are lucky) we could hear something by end of next week. Good luck and keep me posted.
deadline for apps at JD isn't until October 15th so if it takes three weeks after that to get all the letters out we may not hear until the first week of November. Pre-registration for next semester is the first week of November and we would need to know if we got in to know what to register for so....looks like it may be a while.
Crossing my fingers too that we all get in -- then we will have to meet!
presnall and tabacue, let's stay in touch and hope for the best! they admit 40 students, is that right? it doesn't sound like very many...
I think it is 40...that is a small #....PJC lets in 110 for days and 40 for nights. I just wanted to clarify my previous post that the scoring I mentioned (160) and 3 weeks was for Faulkner State. I didn't want to confuse y'all. I applied both places...I think JD is pretty quick about letting you know...I got my rejection letter pretty quick last semester.
Ooooooh - okay - Faulkner. I got ya. Don't know about you guys but I get second thoughts and "doubt" myself sometimes and I typed the word "doubt" into the search field today and got to read some great info that I could relate to. The thought of being a nurse is sometimes scary and I sometimes wonder if I will be able to handle it, etc...anyway thought you may want to look sometimes.
i wish i had known about faulkner state; i don't know if i would have been accepted but i wish i had applied. fairhope is about the same distance from me as jd. oh well. still hoping for good news...for all of us!!
Well, I got my "we regret to inform you" letter from Faulkner yesterday. It said they didn't consider applicants with less than 170! I had 147 there. Still keeping my fingers crossed for JD, but not feeling very hopeful. May be FCCJ in Jax for me (May).
so sorry, tabacue...they would have been lucky to have you....am praying for all of us to receive good news from jd.

Thanks....I'm praying for us too!
