I emailed my acceptance on May 8th and a few hours later I got a "thank you for your response" reply.

I got in too!!!! I had 306 points. I am so happy! What a relief!

YES!!! I am going crazy!! Last year they notified May 1 so I was SO hopeful that we would hear something tomorrow!

Congrats futurenurse346 and cassidyray00!! Unfortunately I did not get an offer from Lane, but I did not feel that my interview was very strong so I was not surprised. Good luck to you both, I'm sure you'll make excellent nurses! I am hoping I will g...

Congrats!!! You won't have to worry about that commute after all :)

Good luck to you as well! One thing that struck me in the Lane interview (at least in my group) is that everyone mentioned extenuating factors (full time jobs, children, etc.) that made the completion of the prereqs (and with good grades too!) even m...

I was really confident going in to Lane's interview too! There were several individuals in my interview group who gave excellent answers so I was a little deflated afterward. I have patient care experience working for a reproductive health program so...

I would be shocked if you didn't get in to Chemeketa. Only alternates could have points higher than yours. 310 is an excellent score. Congrats!! Even with tie breakers, I bet you'll make the cut. The first tie breaker is an A grade in BI 231 so they ...

amsugar, SAME! That's what has me so nervous! I am going in with 306 so without taking alternate points into account, I am down 4 points, but with alternate points, I am down 9. EEK! That's a huge margin. Last year people with 306 got admitted, but t...

Congrats to anyone going in with alternate points! I wish I had them! But that does make me more nervous about my score. I know from reading last year's threads that a couple of the alternates accepted offers from other programs because they didn't w...

So they are using alternate points this year? Why would they say they aren't?! Earlier in the forum, someone posted that they were told by health sciences that they were not using alternate points this year. Weird! Someone who got in last year poste...

Good luck to everyone with their interview today! Fingers crossed for all of us! I think my answers could have been stronger, but I didnt completely babble and blow it like I thought I might 😝 I'm sure we will all be anxiously awaiting the 25th!

I got invited for an interview as well! I'm so excited! But so nervous too! I chose the 11:00-1:20 time slot. @LB2017, the email said 250 people applied and the top 125 are being invited for interviews. The point cut off for this year is 52.20 :)

I've read through most of last year's posts and from those scores, 304-310 appeared to be the accepted range. Though at the 304 level it looks like they had to start doing tie breakers because one person posted they got in with 304 and alternate #1 a...

I took the Kaplan last year and got an 85% (46/50 application points) and I have full points for the grades after retaking two classes so I chose to not retake the Kaplan test just in case I did not do better. Plus from earlier posts, sounds like I h...

Thank you so much for the info! That makes me feel a lot better! I think we've applied to all the same schools, I've seen your posts on the other forums too! :) Have you taken your Kaplan test yet?

I am applying to Lane for the first time this year and I have 54 points. I am nervous that it is not enough to qualify for an interview! I have full points for grades, but I missed out on most of the discretionary points because I am not a CNA or a r...

Does anyone know how many alternates were actually accepted into the program last year? I am wondering how many people will be going in this year with the extra 5 point advantage! This forum has given me so much great information. Thank you all for a...

@futurenurse347, CNA @amsugar I took the Kaplan test at Chemeketa last year and scored an 85% (46/50 on the application points). I was freaking out too, but you'll do fine! The prep book they recommend using makes it seem like it will be A LOT harder...

Great! Thanks for the info. I'll be on the lookout for the email then. Fingers crossed!

acelia95, I applied to Monmouth! I have not heard anything about an interview yet though. Have you? The forum posts I read last year make it seem like they don't send you an interview invitation until a couple weeks before the interviews are schedule...

Health Sciences sent out an email today saying they have opened more spots so you should be able to get into a later date if you need to!

That's my dilemma. The email specifically says we can use a previous score from the last two years, but if we choose to retest, the most recent score will be used. Last year I was a little rusty on physiology so I didn't do as well on the science sec...

Thanks for your feedback! I should clarify that I meant I got 46/50 possible points. I lost the score sheet they gave me so I don't recall what my actual percentage was. Maybe 84? My main problem before was that I didn't get full points on the grades...

Thanks Brittany! Good luck to you too! I will retake it. I want all those points! I retook two classes last year so I am up to full points with grades. Full points on the test would be amazing! Time to study!
