  1. Hi everyone, I wanted to start a thread for those of us applying for UNC's ABSN program starting in January 2014. There is another thread on here, but it looks like it's only about Duke's applicant pool. I know the application isn't due until August...
  2. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    I have usually called the Financial Aid Office earlier in the day (before 11) and have gotten in touch with someone. Maybe try them during the morning hours (if you can)! The SON folks have always been super helpful too, so don't be afraid to call or...
  3. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Yay!! So happy and excited for you! For the background check we had to sign a form and give payment ($40, I believe). I would hope they would include all this in the paperwork they'll be sending you. I know several people had listed things about room...

    Hope you hear good news soon Seahawkgirl2011!!
  5. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    I just called the SON about the PID number. It is the number listed after "lwid" in the top left corner of your Connect Carolina page (mine has nine digits).

    I got my acceptance in the mail! I'm still in shock that this is happening! I look forward to meeting everyone soon. :) Good luck to those still waiting!!
  7. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Yay! Congratulations! I won't get home until after 5 - now I'm super nervous. Do you both live in Chapel Hill?
  8. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Booo, I don't like reading all this bad news! If nursing is what you really want to do (which it obviously is), don't be discouraged and keep trying! I remember reading that they get 200-300 applications each cycle and only choose 64, so keep your he...
  9. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Hopefully, those of you in Chapel Hill will get some mail with good news today. Let us know if you do!
  10. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Has anyone on here been waitlisted?
  11. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Don't worry yet!! No news is good news (that's what I'm telling myself)! Plus, it looks like they're changing the MyUNC portal soon, so it could just be a glitch with that.
  12. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Mine still says "No To Do's." No decision available yet either...
  13. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Oh no, Bohbee! Thanks for posting and letting us know.
  14. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    And I know this may be silly, but did your browser block a pop-up window?
  15. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    @Bohbee, mine still says "Thank you for submitting your application. Your decision is not yet available." Maybe they're in the process of updating them? Good luck!!

    I'm sorry sir, did you say you needed 10 more pages to complete your medical history?
  17. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Alright everyone! Here's to hoping we hear something this week! Please post if you see a decision up on MyUNC. I know I will be checking every chance I get. Good luck!!
  18. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Hang in there! My advice is not to worry about those things until we know something. :) I live about 30 minutes from Chapel Hill, so if I get in I will be commuting. I've heard the traffic is horrible, so I will probably try to take a bus to avoid dr...
  19. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Mine also says "should". It does say it will be valid for spring 2014, which to me says we got in-state status. Maybe they just say it that way since we haven't been accepted (yet!).
  20. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    I filled out the residency form right after the application was due. I got my residency decision in the mail ~2-3 weeks after I submitted it. I want to say that it did not come from the SON, but from the Residency dept...though I'm not 100% sure. I c...
  21. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Hi Seahawkgirl2011 - it's my first applying to UNC as well! Let's just hope and pray we're one of the lucky ones! :)
  22. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    Time keeps creeping by, but we're getting closer! I think I remember someone saying (maybe at an info session) that decisions would start going out around mid-October...but that may be my brain having wishful thinking! I did look back at the thread f...
  23. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    I saw that yesterday on mine too, so I'm trying to finish it up this weekend. Lots of digging through files to find all the info!! Thanks for replying back. :)
  24. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    I have not filled out the residency form. Where did you find it? I didn't see anything about it in the application instructions, so maybe we don't have to fill it out yet...but you could send an email to the SON and ask just to be sure! If you do, l...
  25. UNC ABSN applicants - Spring 2014

    You'll already know all the cool hang-out and study spots when you get in this time around. And yes, the wait is going to feel like forever! I'm an "old lady" compared to you - I graduated with my Bachelor's in 2006! :) Congrats on finishing up this ...
