im so nervous! do you know when we are supposed to hear back?

wnko · Aug 15, 2016

Well, they don't start reviewing applications until September 1st and then you should find out three weeks after that date. I heard there is an interview process?

I just submitted my application as well! Glad I found this forum. Good luck to you both! I don't think there is an interview process, I went to two information sessions and they never mentioned it.

Have either of you heard anything back yet?

Monica1020 · Sep 20, 2016

I also have not heard anything back, but I was added to a College of Nursing BSN course on Blackboard. However, I believe all pre-nursing students were added. Is this correct? I'm getting a little nervous about not hearing back yet.

Yeah I think we just get automatically added because you should have declared nursing as your major when you applied to Kent main. Well I got an email last week and the advisor had wanted a copy of a syllabus for a research methods in dietetics course I took during undergrad to see if it would fulfill the statistics requirement. So I am hoping that is a good sign. Do you mind me asking where you did your undergrad?

That does sound promising... I hope someone contacts us soon! =)

I went to UA for undergrad, how about you? I also registered to attend an online web seminar to learn more about the program. I see you've gone to two of them! How were they?

I hope so too! Tomorrow will be three weeks so maybe we will here something. I went to YSU, I graduated in 2012. They were really helpful. I went to one in person and I liked that one a lot and then I did the webinar one a few months later to see if anything had changed. I believe they only do them online now.

Yeah, I haven't heard anything yet either! Did you guys have alll the prerequisites completed? (Including the additional courses)

Rachael1 · Sep 22, 2016

Yeah I had all prerequisites completed and all but two of the additional courses (genetics and that nursing course) but I'm currently enrolled in them this semester. My undergrad was a Bachelor of Science so that helped having the chemistry/biology/and A&P courses done.
