For years, I was reluctant to apply to LaSalle while finishing my pre-reqs at CCP. I guess I was intimidated, countless people told me to apply...but I put it off, fearing rejection. May 2012, I finally applied...studied for the NLN on-and-off the entire summer...received a high overall score on the entrance exam over 100... Sci. GPA of 3.25, Overall: 3.13. Received my "Congratulations/favorable consideration letter" from LaSalle in Sept (2012) and have been living vicariously through current students in the program now.
I have signed up for the last of my required pre-reqs at LaSalle so I can get a "feel" of their grading style and going to a large university. I know the official nursing acceptance letters won't go out until May 2013, and I shouldn't get my hopes up ...but I've worked so hard (and will continue to!) and hope that things will continue to work out favorably.
Has anyone else received their "Congratulations/favorable consideration letter"? Does that letter mean, if we continue on doing well and meet the required deadlines...that it "should" work out in our favor? Oh the anxiety...well I'll be practicing my conversions and studying.
Take away message: Don't get in your own way...and everything and anything is possible if you give it your all!
I applied to lasalle have to take the NLN and finish up my 3 prerequisites.
I did this and still did the program in 2.5 years; I took the 3 prereq's during breaks as accelerated classes online, or as an additional class, just online.
I just applied to Neumann and Lasalle. I'm from Cherry Hill NJ and BSN programs over here sucks such as the timing. Rutgers have a pt evening program but that don't start until summer 2015. I need a summer or Fall 2014 start. It doesn't matter as long as somebody BSN program accepts me.
