Well I would like to know if this happened at the U of M in Minnesota and if this is the SAME person who uploaded the links on Twitter with links to the video that were later taken down, trying to get it trending??? If so, you should be so embarrassed of yourselves! I’m a nursing student at a different school in the state and saw that post that another student sent me, unfortunately for you you did not get it trending like you hoped. In fact, other people who were able to find the links via You Tube also commented that the comments by the instructors were not that bad as you are claiming them to be. Instructors made comments about the sincere lack of thoughtful discussion posts, students clearly not reading the material before coming to class and yet posting a discussion to get the points, students basically not being responsible adults like you are expected to be! This is NOT high school! I’m in my 30s and have classmates who are right out of high school or in their 20s and have a sincere lack of responsibility and maturity. Those of us who are taking this opportunity seriously (since it’s very competitive to get into nursing school) are pretty sick of people like you and your classmates who are not getting their work done, want extensions, have countless excuses and when it comes to group work we also suffer because you don’t have your *** together. THEN you guys go and complain, do crap like this, to try play victim. It’s seriously disgusting. Be an adult. And do YOU complain about the instructors??? Which is ALSO against nursing student conduct! Don’t be a hypocrite! You kids have not been in the real world, you will have to work with people who are not nice to you, who hurt your feelings or basically tell you the straight truth about you and your lack of work ethic and say “they’re so mean” ?. Be an adult. Take responsibility. like I said in the beginning, if this is the same person (or friends of the same person) who tried to get the same thing trending on Twitter, the comments made by the instructors were maybe tacky but nowhere near the “horrifying” comments you are making them out to be, you are a generation where you grew-up with social media and you think that getting as many comments and “likes” is important and is life-defining. The rest of us who didn’t grow up with this crap I guess are the ones who have a work ethic and integrity. And keep in mind, just because you or anyone thinks that they can just go ahead and sue a person or a group of people for “wrong doings”, a lawyer will not just take any case on. A lawyer will only take on a case they know has merit and is worth their time. Shame.

Accepted at both NHCC (11.53) and Century (11.57?), am declining NHCC

BrieZz: applied to Century and NHCC, just haven’t checked my mail yet but will today. If people with high scores aren’t getting in then I definitely won’t, I have a 3.57 score. I’m not worried, things always work out in their own time for their own reasons ?

Hmm maybe those essays were taken into consideration. It’s odd for people with high scores to not get in if they’re saying that GPA and TEAS scores are deciding factors. I haven’t checked my mail yet but remember that many people decline their seats and they take people off the waitlist. People have applied for Spring and gotten in off the waitlist for fall.

WOW!! I’m sorry to hear that, that is really surprising cuz that is a really good score. That tells me I definitely didn’t get in.

Did you get your letters or email?

I ended up not applying to Inver because they wanted me to do their orientation and retake the math portion of the Accuplacer (stupid cuz I gave all pre-req finished), so I think Inver is the only one sending out emails. Nothing from century or NHCC

What is a “conditional” acceptance? Does that mean you’re waitlisted and accepted based on the “condition” someone declines their spot?

Bummer. I’ve been getting anxious. Plus if other schools are on time and we have to respond by April 1st, that puts us at a disadvantage for choosing our preferred school I'm still hoping they’ll send it out on time

It is annoying that it’s a requirement yet it supposidly doesn’t hold any weight. But I’d also like to know what the “phase 2” is to this transition since our essay is considered “phase 1”

I know, but some people either don’t read all the info/requirements or think they will still be OK if they don’t submit

Out of curiosity, did you all remember to write and submit your essay with your app?

Are you going to be taking out loans? I want to be able to not work either, which is what they tell you to do in order to succeed, but I’ve never taken out loans before and have no idea how it all works. I’ve always paid cash for school

keep in mind that if you look back at those posts from other years, those who were waitlisted did get in off that waitlist and if they applied for the next start date, they got in. I am curious how the TEAS test changes because even taking my A & P classes the science part I did the worse on and that's the first tie-breaker. I don't understand how theres people who've never taken AP but still score super high on that test. Good luck y'all, enjoy all this quiet time before nursing school starts. Once it starts, it will be your life for 18 months.

Yeah I don’t think my score will go up anyway but at this point you wait and see what happens.
