Hello! 
I wanted to create this group for those who are planning on applying for the MX nursing program. Just curious on people's thoughts on applying to the RN program

I believe the application cycle begins August 24th. Would love to get in contact with other applicants! Have you taken the TEAS already? Do you still have a prereq to complete? Lets all chat! 

Specializes in Student.

This is my first time applying to the RN program. 

I haven't seen an exact timeframe on the admission packet. I'm not sure how far they go up to the new semester to give decisions. 

Has anyone been able to register for classes for any of the programs?

Not yet! I was just about to ask

I havent received an email or anything. Hopefully were able to register for classes soon since I have to figure out my work/school schedule

I spoke with an advisor yesterday, she said we cannot register until we get welcome letter and package. She said once accepted it can take anywhere from 2 to 3 weeks. She said not to count last week.

I emailed them to ask when would be the final date to hear back. I was told there is no final date and students offered admission have to be given time to make decisions. I asked if all seats were offered but I haven't heard back yet.....In previous groups I saw people mentioning final dates being given. I guess they aren't doing that this year? Let me know if you all get a different answer.

Yeah. I had to go to the advisor and they gave me a permission code.

To update for anyone waiting also I checked my portal and it said, "director's denial." 😞

If anyone knows someone to talk to regarding the decision let me know! I'd just like to understand what to do better for next time.
