Is anyone applying to the Fall 2012 program ? I have a few questions and I think it would be good to share our concerns regarding the application process here.

I am a preschool teacher and I am applying for 2012. Have very little healthcare volunteer experience and wondering if that really maters. I have some experience looking after a family member who had a stomach surgery and chemo.

Jungly what number r u?

Hey guys!!!

Educate me if I'm wrong but I don't quite understand the wait-list process... The latest info states that UCLA has accepted the FIRST 25 students from the wait-list, so my question is: "FIRST"? to me that implies that the students wait-listed from # 1-25 did not decline their wait-list position??? I find that statistically challenging...

Can I make such assumption? I expected for a few students that were wait-listed to decline their position which in turn would other students standing behind up???

Can someone please educate me on this process??? THANKS!!!!!! :)

So I spoke with the person in charge of waitlist acceptance she stated that only 4 students declined their waitlist position which puts the wait list total to 56. The first 25 on the list have accepted. She told me that it cld be as late as the summer before the waitlisted people find out of we ar accept because people cld drop out at anytime before the fall semester starts. It's so insane how this waitlist process goes, I'm hoping I get in but waiting until the summer is so brutal!

@Blessed63:

Thanks for the info, makes a lot of sense, did they mention the #'s?

Which #'s?

@blessed63:

The numbers that declined? So we can have a better idea of where we stand

Good luck to everyone! I admire your patience in this waiting process!

@junealex no I didnt ask......@NurseZ I don't think patience is admirable, I think I'm losing hope with all this waiting

i just wanted to wish everyone the best of luck at UCLA! i decided to go with CSULA. yesterday afternoon, i withdrew my intent to enroll. i know there are a few others who will be doing the same, so that's great news for those on the waiting list! so don't give up!!! spots are/will be opening up.

i work at Santa Monica-UCLA so i'll probably be seeing some of you during clinicals! you guys have the cutest blue uniforms : )

@Blessed63:

Thank you again for the info. I truly understand your position as I continue to wait around too...

@NurseZee: It's definitely a stressful situation but thanks for the wishes...

@lilpeapods: Thanks for the update, I truly appreciated as it gives those of us waiting the opportunity to remain in the loop of the wait-list status. Good luck at CSULA, after all, we will ALL probably meet one day in the field regardless of where we attend school...

As for others that participate in this blog, please continue to update us with your status as we patiently wait for our position to be determined.

Anyone call to find out an update what number they are on after csula has made there decisions yesterday?
