Good to know! Thanks for your insight!

Thanks for the reply guys! Sorry we're on this drifting raft together but glad I'm not alone. The idea that people have been notified that they hold place 16 or 39 on the waitlist makes me think that the waitlist and acceptances have already been decided. So, I see not having heard anything as meaning one of three things: 1-SON has already decided who has been outright accepted. We've been accepted but they are staggering out acceptances - probably giving the most competitive candidates letters first, and letting waitlisted candidates know they have been waitlisted to keep them on the hook in case enrollment dips before school starts. It buys them some time... 2-We are so far on the waitlist that the only way we will be notified that we have been waitlisted if others before us decline their waitlisted spots. Then we will be notified of our places on the list. The back-up waitlist, I suppose. And if not enough people fall off the waitlist then it's a rejection. 3-SON has been trying to reach us extensively but our spam blockers are just SO HARDCORE that it's to no avail, they will show up on our doorstep with flowers and chocolates crying "Finally, I've found you." Whichever the case, we didn't get notice of rejections. And while I'm growing disheartened, and the "chin up kids" from everyone else just doesn't quite help, I'm glad I'm not the only one wading in the muck! I also haven't heard from CSULA or CSULB which makes me feel like a strongly mediocre candidate all around. I'm thinking of taking a CNA class at the local CC over Summer if it's offered so I can get more hospital experience. Someone suggested going to National University, and price wise it doesn't seem much different than UCLA (don't know how FAFSA works with that if at all though), and the NCLEX pass rate is 96% (don't know if that's just for LA or SD and LA). It is only a BSN, though. But at this point I'm like someone take my money. How are you dealing?

Ok - so it seems like the first wave went out almost 2 weeks ago. Has anyone else received responses? I'm considering applying to National for a BSN in my next round. The NCLEX rate is actually pretty great!

They said not to email them until the end of March. I want to be respectful of that, but I'm also all up in my head! So I'm doing my own detective work. How many are in the FB group?

Hi all, I just found this thread while I was trying to calm my acceptance/rejection anxiety. I don't know if it's helped or not 😬 Those accepted - what is the email address you received the acceptance from? I currently have the "You should soon.." status. I know what that might mean... But I'm holding out hope that maybe I missed an email. Congrats to everyone accepted so far! And to all of those in limbo with me - sending you nursing vibes!
