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

I received an email this morning with my WebStar & NSU email account information. I didn't want to get too excited because there was a disclaimer at the bottom that read:

--- This notice does not imply admittance to NSU. ---

So I logged into my VIP page to check my status and it said "Congratulations on your acceptance". It also says to call or email regarding the final decision so I'm not screaming yet .. lol .. I am a little excited though since last week the status said my application was still pending. I guess we'll see .. I'm going to call during my lunch break - will keep you posted.

By the way, in logging into my WebStar account I was able to find out classes start 8/23/10 in case anyone was wondering. GOOD LUCK to everyone!! Let me know if anyone else has recieved anything.

Congratulations. I have been reading this thread eversince it started. I will apply after the summer for the January term. Please let us all know when you get the final acceptance letter.

Hey everyone!! So i just spoke with someone at NSU they had me down as an RN going into a BSN???? So my paperwork wasnt even in the right hands and then they stated that I have not paid yet so my info was being held as to whether or not i was accepted or denied.... mission you just have to be on top of them because i applied Jan 7th and supposedly the girl i spoke with told me that all of the January apps have already been decided on and they are working on February's and as it turns out my application was entered around Feb.23 almost 6 weeks later from when i originally had applied!!!! The girl said that it was an error on their part and that she apologizes but if i wouldnt have called it wouldve stayed that way... and probably gotten rejected or something who knows! She said that i should be hearing something by email and mail by next week since they are placing a rush on my admission... lets see if that happens. I have to call again within 48 hrs to see if my payment has been posted and my info was changed. Who knows how many other people this has happ to... They have no idea what they are doing.... This could have meant everything from being accepted to being rejected.. she said i was in the pending pile for payment... whatever that means... well people just try to log onto your VIP pages and check your status daily just in case. Need to be on top of things if not if could make or break you, as it did me here... Mari Congrats!!!! You are one step closer girl, i told you! :lol2: Its a long road but we can all hang in there just be on top of your apps because every institution is different and they are obviously all over the place. Good luck to everyone again and we will get there soon :up::up:

Oh, wow. You haven't been online. How are you feeling? Also, how did they find that mistake? Aren't you also waiting for your pre-reqs?

Did the girl tell you if they can make a decision on you now if you haven't finished them?

OMG!!! Im freaking out!

Im recovering, thanks for asking!! I left you an IM as well... anyways, i have no idea why or HOW that happ to my app...thank god that i called to find out because who knows... now im just going to be calling all day everyday lol like a psycho student :uhoh3: Dont be freaked out because i am sure that if they attempted to contact you already that you are ok.. I am not left in the February pile of decisions... we still have a couple of weeks to go until DEADLINE and you know that stragglers are still applying so its all a waiting game... she didnt tell me about the pre-req she said that since its one class and i am done that they pretty much know where i am at its not like im taking 3 or 4 that can drastically change my gpa for the better or for the worse, so i am not considered a LIABILITY as they say. Its only one class and I have to show them that I completed it and passed. Im scared because its not going to change my gpa as much so i just have to stick out and hope for the best. I am already going through the UM route, will know more on Wed about that. So i have a backup... but no worries hang in there, you are good to go.. just make sure that you are not missing anything and send your transcripts in ASAP when those grades get posted. If you need anything else just let me know or IM me. Hope all is well and no freaking out.. your ok. :D :yeah:

If you can let me know about UM, I won't be apply now but maybe next semester is I do not get accepted into Nova.

Take care :)

I definitely advise everyone to call and check up on their application status. Make sure they have all your paperwork and that its in the system correctly because they will not let you know and you could end up losing your spot over a careless mistake. They also had me under the wrong program last week when I called.

I spoke to them after work yesterday and they said I've been admitted provisionally and need to wait for a letter in the mail to make it official. Needless to say I will be checking my mail every day!!

Don't lose hope!! Stay positive and like Jerziana said, keep your options open .. the goal is to do nursing not to get into Nova ;)

Hey to the ones that have been admitted...Can you tell me who you spoke with @ Nova? I have been trying to call for days and I can't seem to get a straight answer. I am getting so anxious :/...I submitted my application in February and I am taking Micro now, and will be finished at the end of this month. I don't know what to think...My VIP page states that I am missing things to make a decision, but everything on the checklist is checked off...They told me it just says that because I am taking Micro, but after reading some of the things that it says here I am a little concerned. Does anyone know what I should do?? I need some advice.. Thanks :)

The times I've called I just speak with the person who answers the phone. I think everyone has access to the system, but I could be wrong. I would call early in the morning before they get busy and ask them to connect you with your advisor. Have your advisor verify that they have everything they need to make a decision. Based on what they told Jerziana they won't need your new transcripts to decide - you might want to PM her about who she spoke to. If its any consolation my VIP page also said they were missing things. Some days it would say that and others it would say it was just pending.

Its very apparent that they're not organized so try to be patient. I spoke to a few friends that are about to finish the Nova nursing program and they said "get ready for the disorganization!" - LOL :bugeyes:

My VIP page says the same thing because im still taking some courses that are required.

But, I received an email stating to sign up with Webstar. This in the past and meant that your in but I have not received any decision such as, a letter or email stating that im in.

I called and they told me I should send my transcripts when I am done with my classes (end of the month) and wait to hear after that.

I am really nervouse, since I did receive an email stating to sign up with Webstar. But nothing offcial.

Mari, when you received the webstar email when you logged on did it says anything about financial aid or something like that?

the email i received read as follows:

important message

webstar and your nsu e-mail account

webstar and your nsu e-mail account are the official means of communication for

nova southeastern university. webstar (webstar.nova.edu, "enter secure area" link)

is our web-based system that allows you to register for courses, make payments toward

your student account, request transcripts, and update your address.

when you signed on, did it allow you to register for courses & view your student account? i have a friend that also received an email regarding webstar, but it was only for financial aid - she didn't have access to her student account. she actually received it right after she applied .. i never received anything like that.

I got that email a while back to sign up for webstar, and I did.. I got my "N" number as they call it, and I was able to file all my financial aid paper work and check the status of my aid as well. But nothing from the Nursing department :(. I called financial aid, and they told me all they were missing was an admissions decision to see if I qualify for aid or not. I called and the lady who answered said that my app is pending. Then she asked me if I submitted everything and I said yes, but it kind of scared me because I guess that there is pending if things are missing and another pending if your app is just waiting to be reviewed. At first they had issued me 2 "N" numbers and had half my paperwork in one account and the other half in another. So I am trying to stay on top of things so that they don't make any other mistakes that could cost me..I'm trying to be patient and stay positive.

It sounds like they've been screwing up everyones paperwork - thats horrible!! Were you able to register for classes & view your student information through WebStar or was it only for financial aide? The reason I ask is because my friend aslo received an email regarding WebStar but she didn't have the same access I did. When I sign on to my WebStar account its like signing on to Miami Dade's site as a student.
