Hi!! This is for anyone applying for NVCC's hybrid nursing program starting in January 2017! Just curious on how much more competitive the hybrid nursing is compared to the traditional?
Thanks!!

I checked my tracking and my app was delivered Wednesday! Cue the anxiety for the next few months..... I heard that the Fall was crazy due to a large influx of apps, and I'm praying that doesn't happen with the Spring. Does anyone else hate that they don't allow interviews, letters of rec, personal statements, etc?

Your thread has been moved to the Nursing Schools / Colleges forum where the other school specific discussions are. We hope you will receive additional responses in this new location.

Can you move this to the Virginia forum?
I heard that they had 400 people apply for the Fall, and only accepted 60. I wonder if a lot of those people plan on applying for the Hybrid program?
Best of luck to you, I plan on applying in 2018 and am keeping a close eye on the program.

I applied to the Fall program and did not get in so I am retaking my TEAs and hoping to do a little better. Has anyone taken the version 6 exam? For the Fall start date we did version 5 so I am a little unsure how different this will be. Good luck to all of you!
I think it's interesting not many people have found/commented on this thread. I wonder if that has any predictive factors on how many people are actually applying lol, other forums had tons of people commenting about applications. I got an email saying that they haven't stopped my app yet, only a few more weeks to find out!

I was wondering the same thing! If you look back on all other semesters, there are hundreds of messages! Hopefully there won't 400 applicants like in the fall. If I'm correct, I think there will be 88 spots open, because if you go online, there are 11 clinical classes for NUR 111 in the spring and each has 8 openings.
They told me 400 applied, 200 were good enough to get in, but they only had 87 spots open.
I have yet to hear from them about my application. I know it was received because I got certified mail receipt after someone signed for it, but am still waiting on NOVA to email me that my application has been processed. Has anyone gotten an email from them just saying that their application was received and processed? I hope there are not 400 people applying, I was really hoping there would not be as many for this start date.

For this upcoming semester 400 people still applied!?

I applied as well. After the disappointment in the Fall I'm kinda discouraged but hopefully we start hearing back soon. I think they give priority to the students that have completed co requisites (PSY, HLT, etc) since they tend to do better in the hybrid program. I hope that's the case since I've completed all of those classes!
