Penn Valley Nursing 2015

Published

I thought I should start a separate thread for those of us applying for the August 2015 start date. I mailed my application on Tuesday hopefully it reached the office today. Does anyone know if they still send out letters notifying you with how many points you received? If so when are they generally mailed out?

No idea on the points.

I am am mailing mine, priority with tracking tomorrow. Kind of a fiasco, I transferred credits from North Carolina Dec 19th, they opened them Jan 5th and logged them as recieved Jan 6th. Of course with the holidays there was no possible way for the transcript to be recieved and evaluated before Jan 5th, when they were back in the office. So I am sending a letter explaining the situation with documentation from the school here that the transcript was sent Dec 19th. Hoping that works. If not I will be applying again in August.

Really dissappointed that that their application period started immediately after the Christmas Break. It basically makes it impossible for anyone transferring credits to have any chance of applying in January. If their dates of the second Wednesday, as posted online, was correct I wouldn't have had any issues.

Oh and had I not been on this board I would have missed the deadline entirely because of the incorrect information on their website.

Lilacs for mom I really hope everything works out for you I can't imagine how many people that will be thrown off because of the dates on the website. I'm so happy we can share information with each other on this website. The application period was originally suppose to start a week after the winter break I'm not sure what happened. Please keep me updated I hope they understand your circumstances I wonder if they are aware of the conflicting information on the website?

So after all of that it turns out I will not be able to apply this semester. My A&P I class transferred as a stand alone Anatomy (BIOL 110). So I will have to wait until next August after completing A&P II and Micro (currently taking this semester). I am confident I will get in then, unless the changes to the program changes pre-req's or something.

Best wishes to everyone this semester, looking forward to catching up with you January 2016.

I'm sorry Lilacs I wonder why AP l was coded as just Anatomy? You should definitely get in the next application period. As far as I know the pre reqs aren't changing but you just never know with Penn Valley. If I don't get in this semester I'm applying next semester as well.

When did the website update saying the application period was 2nd Wed-4th Wed in January? That would mean the application period is Jan 14th-28th?! Last I looked before mailing my app was 1st Wed-3rd Wed? I was under the impression apps stopped on the 21st at 4:30pm!! Then you go to another area on the website and it says 1st Thurs-3rd Thurs?! í ½í¸£ My app was received the 8th?!

I have no idea I called a few days ago regarding another issue and the head of the department said they accepted additional applications on the 22nd and the turn around time would be 4 weeks. I thought that meant the application period ended on the 21st but they accepted more on the 22nd which I thought was a good sign like maybe they didn't receive enough applications which would be totally understandable considering the confusing information on the website. Don't worry you're fine when I called right after Christmas break two people confirmed the application period was from Jan 5th-21st.

As long as we're not disqualified because our apps were received "early"!!! That's all I care about!!! Lol I guess it's just a waiting game now... Been there before but luckily before it was only a 1 week waiting period and I had an email in 7 days and then a few days later got my official acceptance letter in the mail! I wondered as well if maybe they didn't get enough applicants?? Hmm... Nothing to do now but wait!!!

Omg, I would be so upset if we were disqualified but I think we're okay. Four weeks feels like four months I am trying to be patient but it's so hard. That's what I immediately thought when she said they accepted more applications she was in a hurry so I didn't have the opportunity to ask.
