Oh boy, this is probably going to be a long one, please bear with me. I graduated with my ADN in May 2013 and passed NCLEX in July. I am in CA and I had begun applying to hospital positions beginning Dec 2012, knowing it would be difficult - withou...

Thanks Shues! I had not heard of "critical access" hospitals before. For anyone else in CA interested, here is a link to a list of the ones in CA here: Critical Access Hospitals - California Hospital Association

StudentOf, I used the same calculator on every med-dosage exam too - until I lost it! It was my good luck charm from my first prereq class. Of course I failed the exam because I didn't have "Lucky" by my side. I ended up finding it and sailed thro...

Is this your first time applying? Did you apply to any other programs? As I am sure you are well aware, it is very competitive out there for those trying to get into a nursing program. It took me three times applying to several programs. Rejectio...

YES! Congratulations!!! I am so happy for you! See you at the meeting.

Hey Guys! I got the call! I'm officially accepted!! :anpom: Soooo, it looks like they're working their way down the list. GOOD LUCK!!!

Hi Guys, I am waitlisted for CSM too! I was #75 last year, and drum roll please...#1 this year!! I am SO excited to think it will actually happen after THREE years of trying! I have a friend who was #7 last year and is in the program this year, she s...

Congrats Peoplehelper, way to go!! Do you mind sharing your stats with us? I called Canada this morning and I did not get in. She said there will be a meeting in June for people who did not get in to go over their applications. Ugh, I am beyond ...

Okay, I just called the nursing dept. and they have NOT mailed the letters for the Canada/Sequoia Hosp. program yet. She said they would "probably" go out sometime next week. ARGH!!

:yeahthat: Anyone check their mail today?? I didn't get my letter, but I did get a free sample for a granola bar!

Congrats you guys!! Good luck with your studies!!

I really don't think they would count that against you Torasamu because you are such a strong candidate otherwise! Hey, I am stickin' to my last name theory until I am otherwise notified!!

kayellow did you apply to the main campus or the satellite program at Canada College??

Okay, so your online status has not changed from your app being under review. Ro'smom, does the first letter of your last name begin with A-C?? There may be hope yet guys!!

bxdo, Does the first letter of your last name begin with any letter A-J?? Just trying to see if our theory holds

Okay, maybe a glimmer of hope for those of us with our apps "still in review". Maybe they are going by alphabetical order??? ro'smom, what does you last name begin with?? Mine is K, so maybe they haven't gotten very far through the alphabet yet???...

Congrats ug33, that's awesome!! Is this the ABSN at Canada College or the BSN on the main campus? Care to share any of your stats with us?? Congratulations again!!

No, not yet. Was it for the Master's program or the main campus? Was it for this program?? What does your status online say? Mine still says my application is under review with the nursing program. OMG, omg, omg...the letters are on their way!!!

I really think it depends on your professor and how difficult they want to make it. Both classes are pretty intense. If you are just coming out of Anatomy, then Physio may be the way to go since things are fresh in your mind . In Anatomy you learn...

Nothing yet. I think it will be a couple more weeks before they mail them out. Same here Ro'smom!!:chuckle

Sorry. Yes, I just calculated my GPA with the finished courses.

Hi Snake, I just put an asterisk next to the course I had in progress when I applied and wrote, "in progress" next to it; then I had another transcript sent with my final grade. HTH! Good luck!

Yeah, I got one too...who knows? I heard they will change the status of your application online before they mail out letters - I have been stalking the sfsu website LOL! I wish I had a crystal ball...

You can log in to check the status of your application to make sure they have everything they need. I checked back in January and thank goodness I did! My school had sent my transcripts without my final grades! Looking back at the threads from las...

Hi Guys, Just checking in with everyone to see how we are all holding up. I am hopeful one day and totally not the next - ugh. This waiting is torture...
