has anyone else NOT heard back? I became concerned because I didn't get anything in the mail last week, so I called on Monday and the lady told me they were mailed out sporadically and I should be receiving something this week. It is friday, and still nothing.

haha don't worry, I don't see why she would lie! She just must know the right people to go to in order to get that info! CONGRATS! It's exciting to wait with good hopes, but also VERY NERVEWRECKING!! I think for everyone who hasn't heard back yet, this is probably a good sign. How long could it possibly take to type up a letter of denial? We would have probably gotten them by now had we been denied. Therefore, I think they are working on all of our acceptance letters and putting the paperwork packages together..etc. Don't worry, 2-3 mos by now, we'll probably be so overwhelmed, we'll be wishing we were still in the "stalk the mailman, check allnurses.com daily" waiting period.

Congrats Barillasle!! Let me ask you...when did you turn your app in? (and all the final paperwork..test results..etc) and when did you get your letter of acceptance? also, did they call you beforehand and ask you if you wanted day or evening classes? i'm asking because I read in a previous thread from last year and people were saying they received a call asking about their preference, and then later got a letter of acceptance. Just wondering! thanks and congrats again!!! you must be so excited!!

did anyone else get a phone call today asking if they preferred day or evening classes? i'm confused because didn't they already ask us this on the app?

Nothing yet!! I'm thinking this week may be the week we FINALLY receive a response!! Everyone keep your fingers crosses! I'm so nervous/excited for myself and everyone!! :hpygrp:

congrats kmt1014! what all do you have to do? and how much time do they give you? i'm still waiting on a letter! I think I'm almost at the 30 day mark, so I'll be taking my mailman stalking to a whole new level this week! LOL:D

I know! I guess at that time, they were trickling in. We probably got our paperwork finalized towards the end when they were being submitted by the masses!

I called this morning to get a status on my app, and the lady at the front desk said the girl who I would need to speak with is on vacation all week.

I didn't want to retake, but then I called up to admissions and asked if it would make a difference if I got a higher score and she said I could better my chances. At this point, I'll do ANYTHING! Even if it means sitting through another 5 hr test again! lol

Jennamec, I will be there this Sat too re-taking the TEAS. I passed, but barely. I had a 60% on science. And 67% on math. And just like you, I had to guess on about the last 10 of math because I ran out of time. I am re-taking it, figuring that it wont hurt to try and get a higher score, especially on the science. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!

I PASSED!! But......just barely. Literally, I just barely passed the science..lol. Good luck to everyone else in getting their scores. And, for those who haven't taken it yet - BUY THE MANUAL! It really does help. I am HORRIBLE in Math - and haven't taken a math class since 8 yrs ago in high school (and even then I wasn't very good at it) and I passed it still. ONLY because I studied my butt off with the math section. In fact, I'd venture to say the Math in the actual test was a lot easier than the math I had been practicing in the manual. BE SURE TO KNOW YOUR METRICS!!! That's the part of the math I did the worst on!

I just (finally) completed my essay and application online. I take the TEAS this Tuesday morning. I am really hoping I do well. Congrats to everyone who has already received their acceptance letters!! About how long did it take to receive your acceptance letters from the day that you had all of your paperwork in?

when is the cutoff date for applying to JTCC for the fall of 09? I went to their website, but couldn't find much info. Maybe I was looking at the wrong place.

i'm not sure if it is different per school - but the school I am applying to says you must have 60% or higher score.

I am taking the TEAS on April 18 and have been told NO calculators will be allowed to be taken into the test, nor will they give you one. Only a pencil and scrap paper! Study, study, study!! And practice WITHOUT a calculator so you will be more prepared during the actual test!
