Congratulations. Good problems, right? I'd try to look at objective values like attrition rate and cost of attendance first. Not super far from each other but are you local to either area? Which is closer to your support system? Good luck in your decision!

8/15 is the priority deadline. They don't officially accept anyone until this date. They give a preference to applicants who apply before the deadline. Many of the people who are getting acceptances now applied months ago. They are still accepting people but now they have less slots available. At some point they will be capped at 60 and start a waitlist. The 2/15 date is the official deadline but technically speaking if you apply that late the chances of you getting in that year are extremely slim. Applying early gives you the best chances. Reviewing last year's allnurses post, the cohort was filled around November I think.

I got the call you guys. I swear I screwed up my interview but I got the call.

Congratulations!

It's Monday. I hope everyone receives good news this week

Congratulations. Can I ask what school?

Not me. I wonder if they'll call anyone today or if they'll wait until next week. Last year Aug 16th was a Wednesday. Most people don't want to do much on Friday.

That's the day people started posting their acceptances last year

It's so close to the priority deadline. I can't imagine that anyone would get an interview at this point until those first round acceptances are sent out. According to the allnurses page from last cohort, first round acceptances came out immediately after Aug 15th.

Oh wow. The Aug 15th deadline is next week already.

All you can do now is wait it out. No point in stressing. The earlier the better but you're still within the priority deadline. My coworker last year applied mid July and she was accepted into the program. They haven't officially accepted anyone so no spots have been filled yet. I hope you get an interview invite.

I agree with the no reaction part. I couldn't gauge if I doing well or not. In hindsight I don't think my responses were too bad. We'll see. Good luck to us all! Just a waiting game now. I applied to 6 other schools
