  1. Anyone out there apply? I have seen threats for previous years, but none for this year. Just thought I would get one going!
  2. Anyone applying to the UW SoN for fall 2013? Anyone else FREAKING OUT about it like I am?
  3. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    Thanks, UMBDude. Hopefully I will get into somewhere...I was just really hoping for a state school because northeastern and Regis are EXPENSIVE! Great programs, but who want a to pay that much if they don't have to!? Time to look for scholarships! A...
  4. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    So, I still haven't received a formal letter, and my major still says exercise science. I don't think I got in, but it's been a while since my status was updated to them having a decision. The office of admissions has not emailed me back either. Eith...
  5. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    Yeah, I have no idea. I'm just trying not to think about it until I get my letter. It's weird because I'm actually from MA, I'm just temporarily out in Washington finishing up some personal business. Ugh. I just hate not knowing....and relying on a s...
  6. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    I won't "give up". I have applications out at a few different schools. This is the 5th school that rejected me, and I have no idea why. I'm an honor student, president of the honor society at my school, I have 5 years of experience some of which is i...
  7. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    My status was updated to a decision has been made. But my major was changed to Exercise Science...so I'm pretty sure I didn't get into the nursing program. Bummer. Still waiting on a few more schools tho!
  8. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    Checked my status today and it FINALLY said complete. Now I will just neurotically check everyday until I hear something or it changes...I will be working part time too. I have a family to take care of and I can't afford not to! What are CNA jobs ou...
  9. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    Congrats, GK! I finally just spoke to someone at UMass and my transcripts were under my maiden name. She said it won't affect my admission decision since I did send them on time and they just got mixed up. She was wicked nice about it. Hopefully I w...
  10. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    I emailed. But I think I'm just going to call in the morning on monday. Sometimes email doesn't get handled as fast as it would if you were on the phone. I would hate to have it affect my admissions decision..... Congrats, UMBDude!
  11. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    I applied on 1/17. I applied online, then had transcripts sent. Some were coming from Washington and had my maiden name. So, I don't know if that would affect how long it takes for them to update it. I know they were received prior to the deadline be...
  12. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    Congrats, JR!! So exciting for you! Hopefully I will be joining you in the fall...I just checked the status of my application and it still says incomplete. UHG. So frustrating and making me nervous........it says they are missing two of my transcript...
  13. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    Well, that's good to hear! I just hate all the waiting. Hopefully, I'll hear back soon...in the meantime, I'll just neurotically check my online status every day!
  14. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    I applied online too. But I'm in Washington state right now so mailed all my transcripts. I had to overnight them....I have confirmation of them getting there, but I guess they will just take a few days to scan them into the system. Super frustrating...
  15. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    That would be killing me too. I checked my status yesterday and it still said my application was incomplete online. The admissions office said that it was be cause of the volume of mail they have been getting, it takes a while to update the system. A...
  16. UMass Boston fall 2014 Traditional BSN

    Any idea when they will go out? I've read in previous posts that some people know as early as the end of the month. Feeling pretty anxious. Did you apply anywhere else?
  17. Boston-area BSN and RN programs

    I'm planning on applying to Northeastern traditional BSN, Umass Boston BSN, Salem State BSN, Bunker Hill RN, and Mass College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences BSN program. Possibly Endicott College and Curry College. Anyone know anything about these p...
  18. Boston-area BSN and RN programs

    Sorry for the delay in response! Simmons apparently has a strict policy about retakes...I basically had to take a year of classes over, which is totally craptastic and my own fault. It's also one of the more expensive schools. I'd really love to get ...
  19. Boston-area BSN and RN programs

    Thanks for the feedback! I have also heard Simmons has a great program. Their website says they have a really strict retake policy, and I basic ally had to retake and entire years classes. I suppose I could always just pick up the phone and give admi...
  20. Boston-area BSN and RN programs

    I have been emailing directors/advisors, I spoke with someone at Northeastern and I'm waiting to hear back from a few others. The time difference is killer. They all say the same thing..."our program is very competitive." Sometimes I get calls at 6AM...
  21. Boston-area BSN and RN programs

    Thanks for the feedback. Main reason I am choosing these schools is because they are all within commutable distance from where I will be living. My main reason for moving back is to be close my Mom and my aunt who is very sick. I haven't heard much o...
  22. Seattle University BSN (transfer) Fall 2013

    Yeah, I'm stuck in Bellingham, WA...so Seattle would be a cornucopia of opportunity. Skagit and Whatcom county are not especially "diverse"... I'd love to be in Seattle right now. It sucks, but we just can't move because of family stuff, so I made th...
  23. Seattle University BSN (transfer) Fall 2013

    I'm really not "crushed" at all. Let's be realistic. The world still turns and I will still be a nurse at the end of the day...Honestly, anyone who would be crushed about not getting into a college has probably never faced rejection before. I put in ...

  25. Seattle University BSN (transfer) Fall 2013

    I got a weird letter saying that they would reconsider their decision if I showed them my completed course work and if wasn't fair to admit me if I had under 36 completed transferable credits. I'm so confused. It's not like it really matters anyways,...
