Yikes! You guys are making me nervous! I haven't even taken NCLEX yet b/c I graduate on Dec. 18th. I'm hoping to have my examination request packet and app for licensure mailed in this week. I'm so nervous that this process is going to take forever. Is there anyone else who's going to be taking NCLEX in TN? UTSN89: I'm looking for roommate, too! Which area are the houses located in? Price ranges?

Hey everyone, I was accepted to the pediatric track at Vanderbilt. I cannot wait to meet everyone in January. Time for me to start looking for a place to stay! :)

Wow! Thanks so much for the advise. I really appreciate you taking the time to tell us how your first semester in the Ace program was like. I would love it if you could send me the chapters that we should start reading before classes begin. I will send you my email in a private message! :-)

Thanks for posting Mirashu! I have a few quick questions. Overall how was your first semester in the ace program? I know a lot of people say you don't have time to do anything else. Honestly, how much free time would you say you had each week? How much time did you spend studying each day after class? Is it difficult to get A's in the A1 classes? That's all I can think of right now. Lol. Thanks so much for taking time to talk with us! I am very excited about starting my nursing journey in the fall. :-) oh and can you tell us what the Nursing Students of Georgia State is all about? What are you responsible as one of the board members?

@Tuahla- You are very welcome. I hope everything works out well for you! @Gsu11- I'm sure you'll have an amazing experience at Mercer's Nursing school. I would have loved to go if it wasn't so expensive! Good luck with everything!!

@yayaccepted: Yes, I am currently a GSU student. I have taken classes over the summer, and two classes is considered "full time" for the summer semester. I was wondering the same thing last summer when I was in the same predicament. I had recently changed my major to nursing and I wanted to register for NURS2010 for the fall semester around early june. I could not, because all of the slots were full. I have no clue why they don't add more sections of NURS2010 because there is definitely a high demand for it. The only thing i could suggest is that you get someone to hold spots for you until you're able to register for the class yourself. Preferably someone who isn't taking summer courses. You should also call the nursing dept and see what your options are if you are unable to get a spot in one of the classes. Hope this helps.

@yayaccepted: Since you're a transfer student i'm not sure when you're able to register for fall. I can tell you that current GSU students accepted into the nursing program are able to register for fall classes (I have). You might be able to register as well. Have you gone to Paws and tried to register for the nursing courses yet?

@Tuahla: I went ahead and looked at the registration menu and all except one section of nurs2010 is full. There are 6 seats left in the section and it is a thursday class from 1:00-3:30 (CRN: 83444). I tried to register for it, but it wouldn't let me because there is a time conflict with the classes that I've already registered to take in the Fall. I looked at HHS 3000 and there are a bunch of sections still open. Try to find someone who can hold the spots until you're able to register.

@Tuahla :The only other thing I could suggest is that someone hold the spots for you. I'm not sure if you know someone that attends GSU that could register for the classes that you want until you're able to register for them. Are you able to look at the registration menu and see which section you want to register for?? If so, you can see if someone you know has those time slots open and they can register for the class (hold it) until July 26th when you're able to register. Post the CRNs on this thread and maybe one of us on the site might be able to hold it for you. It's worth the try. =)

Congrats Jen_l71!!! They should have instructions in your acceptance packet about which classes you'll need to register for. Good luck!!

@TUAHLA I'm assuming you are not a freshman, right?? FLCs are for freshmen... they're learning communities where you have the opportunity to join one based on your interests and everybody in the same learning community takes all their classes together, and yes the classes would be reserved for you. I don't think its available to anybody other than freshmen though. I'm echoing what kel3 said as well... for example, last summer I changed my major to nursing I wanted to register to take nurs2010 in the fall. it was full by early June ( that's when I tried to register). I was able to register for HHS 3000 though so it all depends on the course, how many slots are open, and if it's in high demand or not.

I'm not sure how long after acceptance it takes to register, but I do know that classes tend to fill very, very quickly. Especially those needed to get into the nursing program. I wish I had good news about that, but that's definitely something that even I've had problems with before and I've been at GSU for two years now. Good luck!

Wow, Congrats yayaccepted!!! You are lucky to have so many options!! Good luck!!! :-)

I agree with KatyGSU. I think they were probably waiting until the 31st to see if anybody else would turn in their letters. I'm sure there's another round going out. Why else would they want people to rush and make a decision by the 31st if they didn't have to send out more acceptance letters? I'm still rooting for you all! Be sure to keep faith. =)

I hope someone will have something good waiting in the mail today!!! I'm ready to send out some more Congrats! *crosses fingers, legs, arms, and toes*
