Any latest updates? I called today to see what information they can give me and they said that if we haven't received anything yet, we should be receiving something in the mail within the next few days.

@missnurse01 Thank you so much for your encouragement! I reviewed all my stats, it looks like I will be applying to 10 ADN programs! Somebody has to take me, I can slowly start seeing the light.

Zasaeki, I know I shouldn't be having a pity party since it seems that everyone else is in the same position in regards to being overwhelmed and stress! Lol! I guess I just wanted to find confirmation in myself that I AM GOOD ENOUGH! Hearing all these 4.0 gpa's and such really starts to make me doubt myself. There are a few schools that do not require having a recency for sciences but I only know of about 4 of them! Also, I would love to start as an Adn, financially it makes more sense for me since I would have to pay for everything myself! As long as I get my foot in the door that is all that matters to me! The rest I can figure out later. Unfortunately, I am not Korean, but I have worked there for 5 years! It is a great company and started there about a year after I graduated. But I thrive for the patient interaction, and know that nursing is my calling. :)

Thanks for posting this!! I am so going to apply to this program! Good luck to you!

missnurse01, Thank you for your reply! I work full time so driving as far to get into a science class is limiting. I have gone to Norco, Citrus, Mt Sac, Chaffey, you name it! I have a B in Anatomy and a B in Physio so the recency is really my limitation. Arg!

Hello Everyone, Need everyone's input! I graduated with a BS in Biology in 2007, however my sciences are overdue for recency and because the community colleges are impacted, it is very difficult for me to get any classes! So far the only class that is up to par is Microbiology. My stats: Overall GPA is a 3.026 (but going to go up since I am taking Developmental Psychology) and my science GPA is about a 3.15. I have a medical assisting certificate and am bilingual. I applied to Citrus College's ADN program and am waiting to hear back from them, and I also am looking into applying to out of state Accelerated BSN programs. I am 28 years old and am beginning to feel overwhelmed! I wish I would have realized that I wanted to become a nurse earlier on! I currently hold the position as a Lead Laboratory Technician for a Korean company. Any advice or input would be greatly appreciated!

Ucefrain, I am in the same boat! I came to my senses and started to apply to ADN programs. So far I applied to Citrus college. I, however, was rejected from Western early on, I want to say after interview dates were being sent. I too agree with you, starting somewhere is better then no where! Like some, I was also going to attend West coast university! Sadly, I couldnt get anyone to cosign on a loan for me. It is a very promising program but the only thing that is crazy about it is cost! I just want to say good luck to everyone and hopefully everyone gets accepted in one program or another! :-)

@Lithiumpink, thanks for the info! Good luck!

Hello everyone, I am reading the posts for last year's cohort and feels great to know a lot of you were in our shoes! So it looks like there will be more interview dates coming soon, judging by what they did last year. I am excited / anxious! Reading it definately put me a little more at ease though.

Hi guys, for those that haven't received an interview date yet, have you thought about calling / called yet to get more information? Just curious!

Hoping and praying I get an interview as well! Still waiting... )

Positivity is key! Good luck to us all! :)

@sonjaxlove Thank you so much for the info!

I know! I'm so tempted to drive by and see what is going on! But I think that would consitute me as sort of stalkerish lol! So in the mean time I am just trying to keep busy. :)

@Lithiumpink, Hi! I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one checking this website lol! I hope all is well and hope we are hearing something soon! :)
