    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in School, College Programs

    I don’t think so! I think it’s an opportunity to learn more and ask questions, even though there’s a lot of good info on their website. I’m happy to share my notes, if you (or anyone else!) is...

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in School, College Programs

    That’s probably not a bad idea, but fingers crossed we won’t need to! I’m hoping we’ll know NOVA’s decisions by the 5th and definitely by the 12th so we can decide which one(s) are worth it...

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in School, College Programs

    I’m subscribed to the MEC blog and got an email today about a virtual RN-BSN transfer event on Wednesday (10/14). I know these have been open to prospective and incoming nursing students in the...

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in School, College Programs

    Last year’s cohort got their decisions on October 26, and earlier in this thread MEC said they’re working ahead of schedule this year. My guess (my hope!) is within the next week or two!...

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in School, College Programs

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in School, College Programs

    Thank you so much for the update! It’s really comforting to know where we are in the process! Looking back at last year’s thread, it looks like this step was completed around Oct 4 last year,...

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in School, College Programs

    Same! 4.0, 4/4 co-reqs completed, and I live in Alexandria. With a “perfect” application I felt cautiously optimistic, but now I’m more cautious than optimistic LOL. I have to think though...

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in School, College Programs

    After being rejected last cycle, I hustled to take my final two co-requisites in six weeks this Summer. It was tough and exhausting but I did it, and I just re-applied today with everything complete....

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in School, College Programs

    I haven’t applied yet, but for my fall application it took about 2 weeks for me to get the Step 2 email. I know it’s easier said than done, but I wouldn’t worry about it too much quite yet. Good...

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in Virginia Nursing

    They’re online, but synchronous, so you may have to be online at a certain time. I have another 9-5 job right now so my options are limited. I’m taking section 20YN with

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I’m taking the Sat/Sun AM Bio 150 and online CST for the second half of the Summer, if you need a study buddy! By then I’ll have all co-reqs with As (knock on wood) and 4.0 in pre-recs. My...

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Yeah, it definitely felt like a crapshoot. I Know they’re probably working with EXTREMELY limited clinical sites this year, so I totally get it, but it’s especially tough to know that you can do...

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I just received a rejection letter. It said there were over 550 applications for a class of 60-80. I’m so, so sad and honestly surprised, as I felt I was a competitive applicant: 4.0 in pre-reqs,...

    showmetheRN replied to MEC Counselor's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Assuming we all get in (good vibes!), is anyone else going to try to squeeze in another co-req in the second Summer term? I’d love to get as many of those out of the way as possible so I can focus...
