Got my letter too! Awesome! Thank God!

Mail just came, still no letter. Anything in the mail for you onebusycat?

I live in Bealeton, so I am literally like 10 minutes away from the campus! Very excited this whole wait list things worked out in our favor and we're at Fauquier. I can get all my immunizations through work, so that's atleast an easy check off my list. I'm already CPR certified through VA CPR, so that's done too. I wonder if the class will be completely filled. So incredibly excited! Can't wait until tomorrow, hoping we receive our letters!

CONGRATULATIONS! I tried calling Ms. Green a million times, but it is just going to her voicemail. I finally got a hold of a very irritated Emma Hott who asked my name and then told me I should be receiving a letter and have until August 10th to reply. I asked if it was a letter of acceptance and she said she couldn't give that info out over the phone because she couldn't verify my identity ... all she could tell me was that I should be receiving a letter and I have until the 10th to reply? She said the letters should be going out today (7/27/12), so I hope I receive it by tomorrow! I couldn't imagine they would send me a letter of denial to reply too! So I'm 99% sure I'm in too! So freaking excited! After all this ... I just can't believe it! Again CONGRATS GIRL! See you in a few weeks!

So I just got off the phone with Emma Hott & Carol Williams. They said that they are waiting on a letter from the Board of Nursing, and Emma insinuated they had been approved to admit students into the ADN program at Fauquier. They did not know when they would receive the Board of Nursing official letter and were hoping for early next week. Carol stated Middletown will not be accepting any more people from the waitlist. She said if admission is approved, they will fill the Fauquier campus from the wait list. She stated if picked from the wait list, you will receive a phone call first and a letter later. Again, she couldn't tell me where I was on the wait list because she just didn't have that information. They both seemed annoyed that they hadn't received the letter and were very nice when they said they're in a waiting game too with the Board of Nursing. So looks like it's Fauquier campus or nothing at all, which I'm okay with. If I got into Middletown it would have been hard to commute that far, but I would have done whatever I needed to do to begin the nursing program. So again, waiting on the board of nursing and maybe a phone call to make all my dreams come true!

I haven't heard anything yet. The hearing is tomorrow, and then I guess we should know something as soon as Wednesday or I would think atleast before the end of the week. I've been going crazy these past couple months waiting to hear something! Keep me updated everyone!

Congrats on your acceptance into the program! :yelclap: Can I ask what you applied with (GPA, TEAS test score, classes completed, county, etc.). I'm just curious as to what they look at when they accept an applicant as I applied with a 4.0 GPA. Also, did they give you a deadline for you to let them know you accept their offer of admission? I appreciate your post about the Fauquier Campus and I tried to investigate further on the VA Board of Nursing website. I found an agenda on Education Information Conference Committee dated January 18, 2012 that references the following: Repeat Initial Approval Survey Visit Lord Fairfax Community College, Fauquier Campus - Associate Degree Nursing Education Program, Warrenton Action: Recommend placing the program on conditional approval and withdraw the authority to admit students until such time the Program Director submits the following: 1. Evidence that current students will obtain the required amount of mental health clinical hours as evidenced by signed clinical contracts, dates and time of each clinical experience and where each student is assigned; 2. Plan of action that addresses how the previous graduates who have not passed the NCLEX-RN exam will obtain the required mental health clinical experiences beyond the long term care experience; 3. Evidence that there is a sufficient number of faculty to prepare the students to achieve the objectives of the program; 4. Provide a completed preceptor packet to include the performance of skills for which the student has had faculty supervised clinical and didactic preparation [18VAC90-20-95.D.3.]; In addition, a Board representative will conduct a site visit to verify compliance with the mental health clinical experiences.

I called the Dean listed on the letter, Claudia Mazurkiewicz, and inquired about the wait list. I wanted to get some insight on the wait list and if she could reveal where I was on the wait list. I'm signing up for summer and fall classes and really need some insight as to the likelihood of the wait list being used. Basically those who were accepted to the program have until July 17th to accept or decline the invitation for the program. On July 18th she said they will know who will be in the program. If you're on the wait list and you are asked to join the program, you will receive a letter. I asked her if there have been wait lists in the past and if there was an average number of people taken from the wait list. She said yes, the wait list has been utilized in the past but that she didn't have numbers in reference to averages or percentages. She said things like pregnancy, military moves, marriages, and acceptance to other programs does happen. Keep me informed of anything you hear, and I'll do the same.

I received a letter today stating I've been placed on a wait list. I guess I have until July 30, 2012 to find out if someone has "dropped out" and I can replace them. Just to give you an idea of what I applied with, I have a 4.0 GPA, have finished all but three of my general education (Bio 142, Micro and Public Speaking). I got a 76% on my TEAS test. I live in Fauquier County. Pretty upset, but who knows, maybe someone will drop out or applied to another school and got accepted. I've been counting on my acceptance to the program, but I don't know, maybe everything happens for a reason.

I called this morning actually to inquire whether it would be an email or a letter sent out and when. The lady I spoke with said it would be a letter and that they would be sent out when she got the go-ahead to send them out. Not sure whether than means the decision has already been made or what. I'll prolly call again next week. I'm getting so anxious! I think last year people began receiving letters the first week of May - hoping that's the case as that's as early as next week!

Hi OneBusyCat! Good luck to you also! Did you apply for LPN or RN? I applied for the RN program at both Warrenton and Middletown. I am really hoping and praying I get in at Warrenton because I live right down the road from the campus. I was reading posts from last year and it seemed like the school sent out the wrong letters to the applicants, like people were accepted and got declined letter. I would have a heart attack! I'll let you know if and when I find out anything, and you do the same to! Good luck again! Counting down til May!

So I submitted my application a couple of weeks ago for the ADN program at Lord Fairfax Community College. The deadline for the application is today (March 26) Just wondering if anyone else is impatiently awaiting the results of their application?
