I'm going to call Monday and find out. I hope not too far

Congrats!!! I'm so happy for you, I know you will make a great nurse;) I heard from Jones today and I guess you can say I got semi-good news. I'm on an alternate list for the fall and hopefully I'm not too far down and enough people decline. Keep your fingers crossed. I need it:uhoh3:

I will make sure I check my mail first thing in the morning. I feel like I know the outcome already...and I don't know what I'm going to do:o You all are just awesome:monkeydance:

I'm sure it will work out for everybody...I hope:o

Good luck Lizzy...I hope it works out for you

I think you were an ideal candidate because you already have a degree, good ACT, etc...I don't get it

I honestly don't think they count ACT as a big factor because when I inquired about applying....they said a weighted average of ACT, GPA plus college hours. So they said if you don't have A&P...it doesn't matter because its not a requirement for admission..just prior to starting. I just think they make up a letter and send

Wish I could trade my Chemistry grades for A&P...lol

Thanks but I think that will rule me out because I had only the min. ACT, C's in A&P's, and GPA only 3.0...so I won't get my hopes up. Good luck with Grenada

I'm sorry you guys...I still haven't received anything:-(

I have nothing:angryfire I agree with you...I'm ready to find out so I can get my ducks in a row. Because if I got it I will have to relocate and its so frustrating not knowing what you are going to be doing.

How many instrutors are at Ridgeland? Someone said they take 15 people per 1 instructor. Don't know if its true or not?

My roomie's boyfriend graduated last Spring from Hinds..He said he would recommend someone go to UMC before Hinds..

I applied to Jones County Junior College and their deadline was March 1st and I haven't gotten anything from them. Its like I can't focus in class now because I'm thinking I have to get home to check the mail. I keep talking to my friend and she makes it seem like its not a big deal for them to accept you...and i'm like yeah right.

I'm so tempted to call and say when can we anticipate receiving a letter. Its not fair to put us through this...lol I still can't belive Hinds students already know if they got in for the Fall...they work fast

I read the letter again and it said they would make a choice by the 18th but it didn't say when we would hear from them...

No, I just checked....and I have nothing:sniff: I'm a wreck....I don't know what to expect...I'm trying to prepare myself either way it goes.

Thank you for your words of kindness....will keep you posted on if I got accepted:) By the way how does that night and weekend alternative work?

Yes, I received that same letter saying the 18th. I been checking the mail everyday hoping they decided early. I just talked to my friend who is currently enrolled at the Ridgeland program....she said she doesn't believe that rumor is true. She said we should be just fine because they have a day and evening program. I hope it all works out.

Oh my goodness...that is nerve wrecking!! If that many applied we won't hear from them until at least May:o I even found it strange that Hinds had a later deadline and their folks already know if they got in. Thanks for the update! No wonder my friend told me to make sure I got my application in the first day it was available online. I have my fingers crossed for us!

Congrats!! I'm sure you will make a great nursing student and future nurse. Good luck with all your future endeavors;)

I applied but haven't received anything.

Thanks for the reply! That makes me feel a little better;) I feel thats it is so hard getting into any school of nursing.

Hey everyone, I applied for Holmes ADN for fall 2007. I have an 18 ACT, my standardized test scores are never the best. However, I will graduate with my B.S. in Nutrition and Dietetics in May with an overall 3.1 GPA. Do you think this will factor in and increase my chances? I'm really worried! I received a letter today and they said applicants should be notified by April 18th.

No, I haven't considered JCJC because I never really heard anything about them. Could you inform me about the ADN admission process etc.? I was told that any program I chose might be slightly easier since I will have my B.S. in Nutrition and Dietetics. Thanks for your help!
