Hoping UCD puts me outta my misery soon...no letter, no phone call yet! I need to know if I need to scramble to take NCLEX before start date or if I can pace myself.... I interviewed for adult BMT/Onc unit and I saw someone got a call already...is t...

Hi! I got into the Jan 2011 class and was wondering how busy is that first Monday start date? I ask because I have an important project at work and was hoping to go to work after the first day of class. Can someone let me know how the first day is...

Thanks Meli! I'm starting ABSN in San Mateo in January. Number 7 is not bad at all! Waitlisted is better than rejected, right? =) Just keep your head up (I know easier said than done)! Even with my son's liver transplant, I always told myself G...

Came home to a rejection letter in the mail....Oh well. I'm bummed but super relieved I can now move on! Good luck everyone! I'm sure we'll cross paths in the nursing world real soon! =)
UCLover610 replied to UCLover610's topic in California
I emailed MM about the status of my application (yeah, I couldn't help it) and she said: "Letters are going out today. Thank you for your patience." Why couldn't they email it?! Sheesh!! Acceptance or rejection, I'd like to move on with my life......

Space, goodness! I feel like I've been applying forever to nursing programs! Applied to UCSF twice in 2008 and 2009 (you only need 3 pre-reqs)...Did some more pre-reqs and applied to SMU for Fall 2010...then reapplied for SMU for Spring 2011 with a...

Space, haven't heard anything yet. Will you be applying again for Summer? If I don't get in, I have no choice but go to SMU in January. I'm really hoping for USF now!
UCLover610 replied to Victory925's topic in California
Vintage, you definitely need a lab as a pre-req...its not just SMU but for the other schools as well. I believe some schools offer just the lab portion but those are few and far between so I couldn't even tell you which schools. Sorry. Good luck!
UCLover610 replied to UCLover610's topic in California
Meli, thanks! After the first couple of rejections, an acceptance is anti-climatic...after awhile with programs telling you no for so long, sometimes I doubt if I really wanna do it, you know? Definitely do the CNA program! I did it at a private ...
UCLover610 replied to UCLover610's topic in California
misty and space, sorry to hear about the letter. =( definitely re-apply! i haven't received anything from USF yet...not sure if its cuz I live in SF so postal isn't as efficient or what! 400 applicants?! That's insane! Good luck in the near fu...

Do you know when we have to get our transcripts in? Multiple people have been mailing different checklists, etc. and there's no financial aid information yet....UGH. P.S. Don't forget to register this week...its not intuitive so be forewarned.

Space, I know! Even though they said end of Nov, I was hoping to get an early surprise! Hahaha...so much for no expectations right? Giants, congrats on getting into NYU (I saw your other postings)! I imagine you'd rather stay in SF but NYU isn't a...
UCLover610 replied to UCLover610's topic in California
So, I researched what a CNL does and the more I read about it, the more I like the idea of it! I really hope USF calls us soon! I was accepted to another nursing program and they're setting up orientation, etc. but I don't want to put my all into ...
UCLover610 replied to UCLover610's topic in California
FYI, I emailed MM about when they'll be notifying us especially with the Thanksgiving weekend and she said, END of November. Waiting....waiting....waiting.

Thanks spacegirl! It was such an anti-climatic acceptance on my part because I was in the middle of the World Series! LOL! I think it's hitting me now. I'll def keep you updated on which way I choose. Last year, I had no options...this year, I po...
