Excellent - you are so helpful!!!

Hi again Ampharos - one more quick question: Do you need any of the books for the second semester? I'm thinking of renting some of them, but wondered if they would be used again... Thank you!

oops - double post.

Ok, thanks so much - that's really helpful. On our letter, it said the ATI will be sold separately, and I see that the SIMchart thing can also be purchased separately, so I'm pretty inclined not to buy the bundle. And thanks for letting me know about...

Ampharos, I'm not sure if you're still reading this, but if so, I was wondering if you could weigh in on the textbook bundle sold through the bookstore? I was looking at everything included, and calculated that I could buy or rent all of the books fo...

Ok, sure. Prereq GPA: 4.0 Terminal degree GPA (doctorate): 3.99 GRE: 325, 168 V, 157 Q AWA 5.0

Thanks for making the Facebook group, MinnesotaAndy! I was hoping something like that would get started. abrimey do you mean like GPA and GRE, etc?

Hi, MinnesotaAndy, nice to meet you! I'm glad I won't be the only one who's not used to the winters! :) I also am looking forward to meeting people - I don't really know anyone in the Twin Cities either. It would be great to have a facebook group...I...

Hi - I haven't heard anything yet. I'm wondering if they'll wait until after the April 15 deadline, then send a message to everyone who has enrolled...looking forward to meeting you this fall!

Hope you get in, Jehhck!

Congratulations to you, too, extasy! And thanks, Ampharos. I'm sure I'll probably have questions at some point...Looking forward to next fall!

I don't know if anyone else is reading this thread, but I thought I would update that I received my acceptance today. I would love to hear from anyone else who is planning to start this fall!

Is anyone else getting ready to interview this week? Mine will be Monday...just wondering how the process is going for others! I'm starting to get a little nervous. :)

Congratulations!!! :)

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. You seem like a really kind, well-spoken person, and I was hoping that we would both be accepted and could meet in person. I hope that you will have better luck next year. Did anyone else have good news?

Everything ended up working out, thank goodness. And I just received an email that I got an interview! I hope everyone else is getting good news too...

Well, I have a frustrating NursingCAS update. My application was rejected today, as they said they need a transcript from a study abroad program I did in 1997, which I thought was covered by my BA transcript (the credits and grades are listed there)....

Bee55881, thank you so much for the kind words. Because of my experience with my son, I'm hoping to work in some capacity with pediatric patients with congenital heart defects. My son had a complex heart defect, but did amazingly until his second ope...

This is my only application, too. I grew up in the Midwest but am currently living in Hawaii. After a major personal experience with the medical field (my 16 month old was born with medical issues and died this past summer) I decided to make a career...

Congratulations! That's great news. My final transcript was finally processed yesterday, and my application is verifying. I really, really hope there are no more problems, and that everything is able to be accepted. Thanks for letting us know how lon...

Good luck to everyone! And thanks for passing along the information that they may be willing to work with us after the grace period. That was really a relief to hear today, as my transcript still isn't posted. If it doesn't show up tomorrow, I'm goin...

Ampharos, again thank you SO MUCH for the information! It's extremely helpful - even though maybe I'm getting ahead of myself, since we haven't even gotten to the application deadline yet, haha. If I make it into the program, I'm hoping to work a bit...

Wow, thank you SO much for all of the information! It really helps give a better picture of what the program is like. It seems similar to what I remember reading from other people - the clinicals seems to be the most helpful part of the program. Do y...

I'm still a little worried though...NursingCAS just told me that it does take 3 - 4 weeks for verification. So I'm not sure where the 3 days thing came from...ugh. So stressful! I think my GPA and GRE should be good. I have a 3.96 in my last degree ...

Ampharos, thank you so much for the information! How are you liking the program so far? Bee55881, I just got a message from admissions letting me know that there is a 7 - 10 day grace period after the Jan. 15 deadline for NursingCAS to complete veri...
