Hi there. I am a student in the program currently and enjoy it. It's hard, and the teachers don't walk you through it, by any means, but if you put in the time and effort to study and ask questions, you'll be fine. A lot of people complain, but I don...

Just about any program is going to have a waitlist or a very competitive points process. For most of the community colleges, you also have to live in the district because demand is so high they are only considering in district for nursing. As for a...

Welcome cenamom and congrats on your acceptance!! Do you have fbook? One of the gals started a page for us...it's a bit easier to communicate on there. :)

In my 8am class this morning, a classmate who was compulsively checking her phone gave me an excited smile and a thumbs up at about 9:15...so don't give up! They're apparently still sending them out. :)

Jess, are you starting the program at 2nd year since you're in an LPN program now? Also, I'm very curious what your experience was there. I have friends in that neighborhood who went there (years ago, though) and said it was a pretty decent school. ...

Thanks for the info! Wow...so 600 students were placed in two schools? I hope this doesn't negatively effect the programs, since these schools were only staffed/equipped to handle under 100 new ones at Daley and 200 new ones at Truman. Even if the ...

Seriously! I'm pretty surprised because it seems most people who contributed to this thread were accepted!

Oh really? That's interesting. If we have class together, we'll have to carpool every now and again...these $5 gas prices and long commute are going to kill! Lol. Anyway, I have not emailed her back yet. I would like some more info first.

Hey Kam, You can check the accreditation status of any school directly through the accrediting body's website. NLNAC accredites most associate degree nursing programs: http://www.nlnac.org/forms/directorySearch.asp It appears both Daley and Truman a...

I think I read on another thread that she is out for the day. Probably the sheer exhaustion of dealing with all 2500 of us little stalkers for months on end. I also saw like 2 others on that same thread (think it's titled something like "accepted to...

Hey Vladak, I am in your same situation. Odd, but whatever! Whereabout do you live, if you don't mind my asking? I live in Ukranian Village. Took a "test drive" to Daley today- It is farrrr. Thankfully, I drive (and I guess we won't hit much traff...

I Deevine! I'm in your exact same boat! I applied to Truman and got an acceptance letter into Daley. I also knew nothing about the program. I went to Daley's nursing office today to try to get some...and they don't know much right now either. Ap...

Hanwinting...I am glad to hear you got into Truman, but I think that's a really terrible attitude to have. I had an undergrad gpa of 3.6 and have gotten mostly A's on my prereqs, except for micro (B) and stats (B). I got a 98 on the compass test. So ...

Congrats, Desiree! That is amazing. :) I was bummed to not get into Truman but so thankful my app was handed off to Daley. Anyone else get into Daley?? As for those still waiting, don't lose hope! There are plenty of people wait-listed to get in late...

It was an email from Dr. Gurney (appropriate, seeing as how she caught my wrath via telephone a few times...teehee). They said a formal letter will be sent to my home. You must confirm via email by next Monday. Also, it was sent to my gmail accoun...

Thanks! I was soooo worried. I am also happy because Daley offers Stafford Loans, whereas the other city colleges don't (I have a BA already so can only get loans, not grants or aid), so that will ease the financial pressure a bit. Good luck, all...

Ahhh! I got into Daley!! I didn't even apply to Daley, but was worried I'd get routed to Malcolm X since I live right near it and heard they were sending people to the nearest school perhaps. I'm bummed it's not Truman, but I'll take it!!! At least...

4pm?? That's two hours away....eeek! Get here!! Haha...what an anxious day. Good luck everyone. Keep us updated if anyone gets the "ding" in their inbox.

This is going to be the longest day ever!

I'm giving it about a 90% chance of happening exactly that way. :) But a gal has gotta hold on to some hope!!

Finally decided to sign up for an account on here, although I've been following this threat for a while. I'm SO anxious about tomorrow!! I hope it's email because I want to know asap about my admission or lack thereof. Like many of you all, I've be...
