NSU EntryBSN Program Fall 2010

Published

Hey I was wondering who has applied to the Nursing Program @ Nova starting fall 2010?

I would like to know of any updates any one has heard on the process, interviews, etc.

thanks!! best of luck!!:p

Nursekitty, Zdream: I got the same answer!! :uhoh3:

which didn't sound too optimistic to me, but i have hope. I keep trying to remind myself, that everything happens for a reason and what ever it is will be. And that I am privileged enough to start the nursing program in the fall. :redpinkhe

Stay positive!! :p

I just spoke with ****** about the required uniforms. I have found a cheaper brand but the with the same teal color and I wanted to know if this would be acceptable but she said that they want us to wait until orientation to get the uniforms. They don't want us to get anything different until they advice us in orientation. I don't understand that because if it's teal than what is the problem? The elastic set I found is $20. The price on the nsu bookstore for the pants along is $20. I'm sorry I just had to vent. Lol

Marcy: I totally agree, if its meant to be its meant to be. Atleast we are given the oppurtunity to become nurses. Lets just hang in there and hope for Baptist LOL.

Nursekitty: I would definately want to have the option to buy my scrubs else where.

Does anybody know if the Iphone is qualified for the PDA they are asking for? I have an Iphone and would not be happy if I had to purchase a PDA.

Zdream, Marcy, Nursekitty and whomever else is waiting for their letters from Baptist, i understand how ulcerating it must be, i would be nauseated all day....:barf01: its like a do or die at the moment, but keep in mind not everyone that receives the scholars actually accepts the offer....you may also be on the alternative list if there is one... im not sure... but remember some people do not like the whole contract commitment thing. So hang in there, no news is good news at this point in the game. I wish you all the best and sending hugs your way :hug:

I also heard that the scrubs they are strict on but we could get away with the Gray Anatomy company ones..... i am just going to wait until orientation just in case because the tops could be different the pants dont matter but tops come in different subtypes like pockets in the front, or cross overs, etc. I asked about the PDA from the someone i know in the program and they said that no your Iphone can not be replaced as a PDA since they have specific software that needs to be inputted into the PDA....that the Iphone will not hold or will not have enough memory....ugh i just saw one that my friend uses and she got it brandsmart... but i think we use it during the second semester im not too sure about it...

So much things... i have to make a list and go by it little by little.

To those who got accepted cant wait to see you and those waiting my hearts are with you... always, i know how that feels :hdvwl:

Jerziana: from what you know about baptist, do you think those those who are not given a response when we call are on an alternate list or denied? I don't see why some where given answers and others were not. It just makes the suffering worst for those who are waiting.

nursekitty, i am wondering the same thing, if they already know they why not atleast tell you however, if they do have an alternative list for those that might not accept the offer then they may just want you to wait since the letter may state that??? i am not sure... i am hoping thats what it could be... i would just check your mail because the mailings have gone out for denials... we have already seen people here get them soooo.... i guess wait... i even though i hate that word..... :grn:

Hey guys :) Those who have already recieved acceptance to Winter. Did you guys call to find out? Or did you recieve a letter? I am so eager to find out my status yet so nervous! I want to call and find out if they know my status already because on my VIP page under admissions it doesn't say anything. Before it said my app was being reviewed. Im so worried. I applied like in early June. :( Ahhh! ...

Jackie,

I actually think that when you no longer see a status it's because they must likely pulled you app for review. That happened to me as well and then in about 1 1/2 week I recieved my acceptance email. They send you an email with the following "Congratulations on your acceptance to Nova Southeastern University! You have been admitted to the Main Campus Nursing - Entry-Level program for the Winter 2011 semester.

In the coming weeks you will receive your official letter of acceptance. In the meantime, please visit our admissions website and continue to log into your VIP page throughout the year so that you are up-to-date on current news and events, important dates, opportunities for students beyond the classroom, and other interesting and useful information in becoming an NSU Shark!"

I hope this helps = )
