Good news for all of you waitlist hopefuls! I have decided not to attend, and have just released my seat in the program. Good luck to everyone! I wish you all the absolute best! :)

Congrats on your acceptance to such a great program! That is FANTASTIC!!!

Hi Katyb - Does U of R have a waitlist? I dont know why I though they didnt, but if so, thats good news! :)

Hi YogaRose! So nice of you to join the thread! I think you can pm after you have 15 posts, so a couple quick posts and youre there. I look forward to hearing about the program and any advice you have, but will try to keep in mind how busy you must be! :)

maryash - You know youre my girl! Youll rock it no matter where you go or what you decide to do! :redbeathe

I was told by the FA lady awhile ago that they try to give scholarship decisions the week following acceptance decisions. Hopefully that holds true so those of you waiting wont have to stress for much longer! :)

Priston posted something about an email mentioning pre-req deadlines, so I took that to mean accepted... I phone interviewed and havent heard about an apartment list. Would you mind filling me in? Thanks! :)

I am so happy for all of you! Waitlisted people included, because from what I can tell, you are as good as in! Our girl at Duke sets up the Yahoo group. I dont usually yahoo either, but right now its just the two of us. Im sure shed like better company... :)

Heres the link http://urnursingstudent.blogspot.com/ Enjoy! :)

No worries! Even the woman with the blog managed to go to dinner every once in awhile. :) It was a long wait, I know. Congrats to you all!!!

Thanks Twois, Ill check it out. Heres another interesting read. Its a blog written a couple of years ago by a student in the University of Rochester ABSN program. It definitely gives you a feel for a day in the life... http://urnursingstudent.blogspot.com/

Sorry Sara, no flashing neon sign! Youll get an email from [email protected] entitled Admissions Decision Available. It will give tell you to login to your applyyourself account, and will include your login info just in case youve forgotten... Once you login, scroll down to the very bottom of the page, and under Decision Status there will be link that says Your Application Decision is Now Available Online. Click on that link, and theres your letter! Im excited for everybody, and cant wait for those acceptances to start rolling in!

I dont know if this helps with the anxiety or makes it worse, but I spoke with our fav lady today. She tells me that Friday is a marathon day and they intend to get all the reviews done. Theyll start sending notifications on monday which, despite the holiday, is not a day off for Duke. Woo Hoo!! Decisions will be here before you know it!

Hey Guys, Anyone know Dukes FAFSA deadline? Ive found different dates on their website, and have been waiting weeks for a callback. Im hoping they told you all at Duke Days... Thanks! :)

Glad to hear it well, Amy!

Geneva - NO WAY! We are absolutely NOT turning it into a reality show! Hahaha! Twois, I am so sorry to hear about your sick pup. My heart breaks for you...

I just wanted to wish Kelly, Amy, and everyone else good luck tomorrow! :)

Yes Twois, here are the steps... 1) Accept or decline online. 2) Follow a link to initiate and pay for a criminal background check. 3) Put the check in the mail!!

Yep. Youll have to pay the $500 to hold your seat, and if you decide to go to another program then you forfeit your deposit.

3 weeks from the date of the letter. :)

Based on what she said, they typically notify by email. Look for one entitled Adission Decision Available. There is a link in the email to your applyyourself account, and the decision is available there. As far as the date goes, someone else would know better. :)

I a so glad to hear it went well for everyone. I hope the sick people (you know who you are) are feeling better, and that everyone gets hoe fro the stor ok! Can you tell which letter on y keyboard isnt working?

I don't think it's strictly chronological, so I wouldn't assume the worst. The deposit is $400, and I was given two weeks to accept. Good luck!

I really don't know if there's a group or not, but congrats to you, and to NoChip, and anyone else I may have missed :) Well done!

Hey, good luck to everyone tomorrow although I'm sure you're not going to need it! Will someone eat some BBQ and drink some beer for me, please? :beer:
