I have been trying to get into the RN and LPN program already for 3 years. It is so competitive here and I'm not having any luck, while the paramedic program is pretty much open. I got accepted my first try. I'm tired of sitting around waiting, my husband is in the military so I'm running out of time here at this station.

I ended up challenging the exam last year, passed, and got hired as a CNA within a week. Still trying to get into the nursing program, and still trying to get a job in a hospital instead of a rehab center. I took a first responder course, and will hopefully be starting the EMT program over the summer. Think I will go the EMT, paramedic, route to bridge to RN.

I still have not recieved my letter, either they never sent it, or it got lost in the mail. I know with the RN program they send out a batch of letters one week, and they next week they send out the rest. I had to go into the office to get my results because they never answer their phone. As I was suspecting I did not make the program. ;( Oh well there is always next semester. Good Luck!

I was out of town all week last week, but now that I'm back I'm going to personally go into the office today. Absolutely ridiculous that I have to do that to find out where I stand.

I still have not received a letter either way. I have tried calling the office everyday for the past week and no one answers. I am going crazy, and fear I am the only one that did not receive a letter!

I have been trying to call the office for a week now, and have not spoken to any one yet either! I'm getting really annoyed since I don't even have a letter yet.

Has anyone not received a letter?

I still have not recieved anything ;( I don't know what to think! Why would they make me wait longer then everyone else ;( I hope my packet is not lost in the mail. I have called the office over and over again and no one will answer WTH! Congrats to all of those that have got in. When do we have to confirm our seats by?

I'm hoping rejection letters were sent out this week, and acceptance letters will be next. Everyone I know that got a letter this week was denied. One can only hope.....

Has anyone else received a letter?

RN prereqs are- College english, College math, Anatomy and Physiology 1 and 2, Intro to sociology, Human growth and development, Chemistry, and general psychology. You also need Microbiology but can be enrolled in it when you apply. For the CNA I went to cambridge Medical institute for a week crash corse that prepares you for the sate test, you don't have to do it as long as you know the basics. The state nursing site will tell you all 21 skills you need to obtain your certificate. Pay is anywhere from 8-13 an hour depending on where you work.

Not really, I'm a CNA which requires no schooling to obtain, but you don't get paid as much as med. assistant. I would try the LPN program again, along with Med assist. Most people have to apply a few times before getting in. I am working on my RN prereqs right now and am only 2 classes away. Figured I would apply for the LPN program in the process then just bridge over to RN

Is everyone working on their RN prereqs and applying for the LPN program in the process? Or just applying to the LPN program?

I have no idea what my score is. I don't even know how they come up with the scores. I heard they tell you what your score is on your "letter" Last semester people who had a 9.0 out of 10 didn't even get in! If you don't mind me asking what was your score?

Have you seen other LPN fall hopefull threads on here? I'm so anxious! I called the nursing office and they said they wont be sending letters out until next week. I wonder why? I'm going to call back and speak the advisor instead of the office worker.
