Hello,

I Have heard all different things about the applicant process. I applied last year with a 73 on my teas and A's in A&P's but didn't get in. I hope to get in this year..Good luck

Good luck to those that are trying to get in!! If you still have classes to take i would recommend signing up for those that are mostly for nursing students; you can make a nice network of study buddies that way.

I graduated from NECCO in 2000 and am currently one of the mentors.

Hey DDRN4me!

So do you know what's going on with the evening program? A few of us got phone calls asking if we'd like to apply to the day program b/c they're suspending the night classes for 2 years...whyyyy???? It's so frustrating!

Hello,

I can't believe they are doing this. Some people have been working on their pre reqs for years.. I also heard they are only accepting 32 people for 09.. It is so CRAZY:banghead: I am soooo discouraged.

ECatSchClea · Jan 29, 2009

I'm completely discouraged, too. It makes me sick to think it's going to be twice as hard to get in now. ***?!?!?

Hopefully you and I will look back on this and laugh...when we get acceptance letters :) My fingers are crossed for us both!

Hey,

I am keeping my fingers crossed for us both too. I hope we can look back on this at laugh:lol2: I am trying to stay positive. I think we hear in March but I am not sure.

Hey,

I forgot to ask if you are applying anywhere else? I heard Middlesex has a good program. I might contact them. Necco is much closer for me.

I have also just received my letter today from NECC and I'm on the wait list. Do you know how many people are on the wait list per year and the chances of getting into the RN program for this fall? Just wondering , like many of you I was hoping so much to get in this year!

I'm shocked about the whole 32 student for the next two years, thats so insane! even more competative now :S

Hey,

Congratulations! I got waitlisted, too. I'm happy that it's not a flat-out rejection, but still bummed that it's not an acceptance.

So, do you know how many people they keep on the waiting list? :)

Congrats again, it looks like we might be classmates at some point!

:)

Congrats to both of you. I am not sure how many people are on the waitlist. I have heard of people getting called up from the waitlist as late as august... I am just glad to have a spot for 2010.. I wonder where we are on the list..

I'm excited for us all! Did you guys take chemistry yet? I know that's one of the new pre-reqs for admissions for 2010, so I'm wondering if we'll need to take that if we don't get called up. I hear you about wondering where we are on the list!
