Mailed My Nursing School Application On Friday...

Published

I took my HESI A2 exam on Friday and scored an overall 89.67% (Reading and Comp., Math, A&P, Biology, Grammer, and Vocab. was on my HESI). The community college that I attend gives extra "points" if you score at least a 80% or higher on A&P (I scored a 84%), a 80% or higher overall, and 80% or higher on both.

I currently have a 4.0 GPA and my school gives extra points if a student completes all of their co-req. courses before applying to the nursing program (which is for an associates degree). I have completed all of the required co-req. and pre-req. courses.

I mailed my application on Friday, so the waiting game is on! There is only one school in my area that offers an associates degree in nursing (the other one is 2 hours away), so I don't have any other schools that I can apply to. Do you think I have a good chance at getting accepted? The deadline for the application is June 10 for the Fall 2013 semester and it can take up to 6 weeks after to find out who made the cut. This school is very competitive, so I hope my HESI score was high enough.

Who else is playing the waiting game right now?

Good luck :) I applied October 2012 and didn't find out until April 6th that I was accepted for the fall ADN program. I start September 3rd. I have a mandatory nursing orientation on May 29th from 9a-3p. So excited :) But the application deadline was February 1st 2013. Waiting game sucks, you start stalking the mail lol.

I'm currently waiting too but I take my TEAS on the 28th of this month. Once I pass the exam, then I get an interview scheduled. We are suppose get the news of acceptance/rejection late June or early July. Good luck to you!

Thanks everyone! SopranoKris, I figured that I will know if I get in sometime before mid July. The application deadline is June 10 and the school said that it can take up to 6 weeks after the deadline (may be sooner....**fingers crossed**).

I took the PAX RN on may 13th and I am now waiting also. Letters for my school go out on June 15th so only about 28 or so more days before I should have it at my house in my possession!!! Good Luck to everyone else that's waiting!!
