Thanks for your replies:-) I actually stopped by the campus about a wk ago & picked up the info packet.Being the "detective" that I am(at heart), I decided the go snooping around the nursing dept. to find someone to answer my ?'s. I actually came to the door of the director of the program,whom, by the way was EXTREMELY friendly.She told me that since there are so many applicants, my best option for acceptance would be Fall '05. Thanks again
