@trix - I emailed west about that same issue and he said that we will have till the end of September to upload that since the vaccine won't be available till August/September.

@trix_010509 - hopefully this has already been answered for you! But you should've filed your fafsa and gotten your financial aid package recently right? I just recently accepted a portion of mine. Kind of stinks that it's dependent upon your last years information when i was working a lot, but once im' in school, i won't be working at all! @applered - There isn't a specialty, per se. You get your RN license and you get your MSN. The emphasis/concentration though is on "leadership" and the faculty explained it as preparing you to be an RN but in positions of more responsibility, etc. @EhKim86 - for me, most of the ABSN programs were private schools with significantly more costly tuition. Also, this is just from what I heard from my friends who are already nurses, but there's been a general trend of hiring has been RN's with bachelor degrees (as opposed to an AA or LVN) and there's a trend NOW of hiring RN's with masters degrees. I figured, if i was going back for another degree, it may as well be my master's since I already have my BA (not in nursing, btw. I was a political science major in undergra). with that said, i know that the sooner you get out of schoool, you will most likely be able to find a job - so it's really up to you! but that's just my two cents :)

@hkwak002 - yeah, you should've received an official acceptance letter in the mail. Also, check your titan email frequently, because Stephanie has been sending out medical forms, CPR information and other things we need. I didn't do anything with the "application status."

Hi guys! On the acceptance email, it said that we had to let them know by April 30th and if we do not, the spot will go to someone on the alternate list. So I'm sure as it gets closer to that date, you guys will hear back. Until then, good luck!!!

Don't lose hope yet guys! I'm pretty sure there are some people who will decline (in my interview group, there were at least 2 who were already accepted into other programs already), so that'll open up some spots for sure. And I do remember them saying that everyone will get an email, so keep your head up!

congrats Alicekat!! Which interview session were you in? I was in the most recent one, April 12th from 1230-4. I didn't have to wait that long to find out, whew!

Just received an acceptance email!!!! I'm in shock!!

@DewWst - tell me about it! I feel bad for those of you who had the earlier interview last month..waiting for a month for the results would kill me! But we'll find out soon enough :) @susan007 - i think i heard 30, but of course with the budget cuts, it could be less...i did hear that a couple people have already "declined" because they already accepted offers to other schools. And at least in my interview, 1 person didnt show up at all. So better chances for all of us!

hi DewWST! They told us that they would have the results probably in 2 weeks. Another applicant asked for a specific date and they said maybe around the 24th.

oh wow! congrats to everyone who have their interview done with, you all survived Thanks Susan007 for the information, it's actually really comforting to know it's not 3 straight hours of grilling, haha. And from what I remember from the info session last year, all of the staff and faculty were really nice too! But wow, only 20-30? I remember hearing somewhere that they tend to accept 30-36. The budget must be pretty tight to have the numbers go down that much...but i guess the upside is, you will have a better student to instructor ratio? Even so, it definitely would be nice if we could all get accepted, haha :) Anyways, does anyone else have feedback or want to share their experience?? I'm all ears :) I'm just waiting for my interview to come up...

Good luck on those who have their interviews this week! Let us know how it goes and how you felt about it Think positive thoughts :)

@michelle1985 - I may have posted up on the board for Western, but I ended up actually not applying there. Is everyone else waiting on other schools? I only applied to CSU Fullerton, so this is it for me!

good luck everyone! Does that mean there are only 2 days of interviews? March 22 and April 12? But it looks like each day has a morning and afternoon group. Yikes!! I'm so nervous!! I really hope we all do well Let's keep each other posted!

yikes, have you tried calling the school and asking if you could reschedule for another interview date?? it doesn't hurt to ask! I'm still waiting on whether i got an interview or not, darn!

Now the waiting game! I hope everyone got their application turned in on time I wish the School of Nursing would send out like a verification email that they received it or not...i'm just a little paranoid, haha. Also, did everyone get accepted by CSUF (not the school of nursing)? Mine is still under progress because they're waiting for one of my final transcripts...and I sent several weeks ago. Should I just resend it or just wait it out..??
