    Most of the talking seems to have shifted over to the facebook group. Quite a few people from the thread, including myself, were accepted. There are also some still waiting on their letters too,...

    Man, I really can't believe that the long, painful wait is almost over. Some of us might even know as early as tomorrow... that's crazy. Whatever happens, it has been a pleasure waiting with all of...

    It's so close now! If the letters really do go out at the end of this week, it's possible we'll know late this week (depending on the day they go out) or early next week. I'm so freakin' nervous!...

    willow7 replied to Reese2012's topic in Illinois Nursing

    That is good news! :) At least one way or another, we'll finally know soon enough. Karebear, when you said the first batch went out today... was that referring to a batch of transfer letters or...

    willow7 replied to Reese2012's topic in Illinois Nursing

    That's fine. I am! :) KareBear's right about all the orientation stuff too. If you do it this month though, it's a little bit cheaper and the schedule is slightly more abbreviated (since it was...

    willow7 replied to Reese2012's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I know what you mean KareBear. I check my mailbox every morning even though I know nothing is going to be there yet... I know they JUST started reviewing transfers, but I still run out and check it...

    willow7 replied to Reese2012's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Woohoo, 24 more days! And I'm close to mid-twenties as well. I thought I'd feel old at my orientation, but most of the transfers tended to be older students as

    It doesn't sound dumb! And yes, that was the lowest GPA accepted for that particular year and applicant pool. But again, it was prerequisite GPA and not overall GPA, just to clarify. And I'm...

    So I went to my orientation today because I'm planning to attend NIU regardless of my admission to the nursing school, and then if I don't get in, I will be reapplying next year to NIU and all other...

    Those remaining credits are for general education requirements courses, regardless of major. If you're a transfer though, you can come in with 66 transfer credits maximum. And if you have your...

  16. For those awaiting acceptance letters from Northern Illinois University

    willow7 replied to Reese2012's topic in Illinois Nursing

    That was my first thought too. Even on the nursing homepage, it just lists the pre-requisites and that's it. There are some other schools that have a lot of varying requirements for admission, so...

    "MG" means missing grade. Did you already complete the course or are you currently taking it? Edit: My bad, apparently it means multiple grades per Secretariat's post below. :) It means missing...

    I wish I had a better answer sometimes than "I don't know" about all this nursing application business. I'd be curious to to hear the answer

    Karebear, I understand your concern. I also have two classes to finish as well over the summer and I'm hoping that it won't go against me, but all I can do is my very best and wait and see. I would...
