Phillips Beth Israel Applicants

Well, I guess we just have to wait and see how things pan out. Good luck to all who are waiting for that call. I have decided to stop worrying about it and let the chips fall where they may.

Well then I guess I won't be getting an interview either, I got a 92%, but it seems like all 8% that did better than me applied to BI. Now, I can rest erring on the side that I didn't get in rather than being in limbo for the next two weeks. Why couldn't they tell us that before?

You can still get a call OSuro. I have no idea what everyone else's scores were except for the people on this forum. 2 more weeks and then we'll know for sure. Until then just relax and try not to think about it. I really need to take some of my own advice. :eek:

OSuro I saw on another thread that someone got a call just yesterday for the interview so obviously they are still making calls so I wouldnt worry to much yet there are still 2 weeks yet and 92 is excellent!

yea i was told today that they are reviewing my app, so im hoping for the best but very anxious.

sk57 · Apr 22, 2010

so if i haven't gotten a call (and they were reviewing on tues/wed) does that mean they moved on to the next person by now?

sk i wouldn't assume that at all. when was your application complete? and when did you take the NLN? what was your score?

sk57 · Apr 22, 2010

i sent everything in end of feb, and took nln early/mid march, scored in the 93rd percentile..

At this point, I think they pick students by tearing off our name from the app. and throw it in a bag and pick it randomly on alternating days...

Honestly...and I dont mean to say anything bad about the school or insult anyone because I'm not like that at all...but honestly I am so annoyed with this school it is not even funny at this point! I feel that they are leading us along. I feel when I ask if I am accepted or not they already know but the whole "please wait until may 1st for the letter" is just stupid. Obviously I did not get in so why not tell me?? 2 months ago I was told my application was being reviewed. A week later I was told my application was reviewed but I need to wait until may 1st for the answer. Other people on here are getting phone calls for interviews (CONGRATS to everyone who has), so obviously they know who is not accepted and are making everyone wait for the letter, why not just tell me the truth when I'm on the phone. We're not little kids, we're grown adults and professionally they should just tell us the truth because obviously at this time (late April) I'm sure they know whether or not a person is accepted especially when their application was reviewed in February. SOrry people...I just needed to vent - Its like I've been patient for months and this stinks...just freakin' tell us already! Sorry :up:

Hello everyone,

This is a crazy waiting game. Im dying to go the Beth israel and this waiting is very hard. I know good things come to those who wait but Im hearing so many things about The application process of beth israel and Im a little nervous. This is something that is apart of who I am and who I will become. Some just declare a major because it sounds good but Im fighting so hard to because I need to be a skilled, passionate, and dedicated RN. Honestly, My grades have never been this good and I scored in the 96% on the NLN. 10 years ago I did get pretty bad grades but I wrote an explanation and none of those classes were nursing pre-req's. I just really hope I get in to the program. At the end of the day I just want to be accepted to BI. Im staying positive but Im starting to get nervous.

I hear you guys... I did write a letter addressed to BS just to further explain my questionable transcripts. I dropped it off in person this morning, but MG was out sick. Another woman, who was very pleasant took my letter and said she would make sure that it goes in my file. Funny thing I picked up on - I was asked if I was there for an 11:30 appointment. I can only believe everything we've been assuming- interviews for their desirable students are probably going to held until 5/1, and I guess since the people who haven't been accepted just have to wait for the rejection letter.
