Thank you, everyone for your responses! I truly appreciate it!

Hello! I was just recently accepted to an accelerated BSN program for January 2011. I'm moving about 5.5 hours away from my immediate and extended family, which is heartbreaking because we're all so close, but I am more than excited for my life to start AND to be on my own. I should be making a deal with a landlord, sometime in the next few weeks, on an apartment that allows dogs and cats. I was thinking that I would adopt a small to medium sized older dog from a shelter that has been housebroken and up to date on his/her shots. I know that I will have long hours during the day, (so I'd have to make sure I come home during lunch or put the dog in daycare), but I'd like a companion to have around. Are there nursing students or current nurses who have or have had a dog while in nursing school? How did it work out for you? Thank you!

Ansaguy is right. The first batch of letters/calls were made last week and we have until Sept. 30th to respond to the acceptance. After the first batch of people respond, they should figure out how many more acceptances to send out. Keep your chin(s) up!

I just got an acceptance phone call!!!!!!!! Ah!!! Can't wait to meet you all!!!!!!!!

I called UR today and admissions said that they are sending out some letters this week. Hopefully this will alleviate some of the waiting game stress! Again, good luck to all!

I applied in July, had my interview mid August and now the waiting period is getting the best of me! I really hope they decide soon! Good luck to everyone!
