Hi Everyone! I really wanted to begin a thread about NVCC's Nursing Program due to begin in Fall 2013 (Applications are due May 2013). I am starting my pre-reqs in January, because I have been in school elsewhere. I know it will be tight to get them...

Thanks, NOVA EMT for the information. Another question in regards to the background check/ drug test. I've uploaded the results to the certified background to-do lists, and they say "complete" next to the status. Do we need to submit the results else...

Okay so it's fine if my background check and drug test is already completed?

Did you all see the email saying the only task we have was to order the background check, drug test and immunizations tracker? Do you think it is an issue if I already begun those tasks?

I agree, and I could be wrong but I imagine most of those documents will be clarified at orientation. I am pretty sure that we need to just complete a background check and a drug test by the time orientation comes around. Other than that, everything ...

Oh, I checked my email just now and saw the Background Check/Drug Test/Immunizations forms are available to us! Looks confusing!

Jessi_o, all of your options are great! Creative I think my votes are for NOVA Nursing Class 2015, and NVCC's RN Nursing Class of 2015. What do you think your favorite is?

Hi all, Any word on the background check, drug test info? Also, what is our status on the possible facebook group?

I am so proud and excited for ALL of us! Sambreen, thank you for checking in and being sweet! Jessi_o, thank you for keeping an eye out for me!!! :nurse:

I love that you said "today is celebration day!" Jessi_o!

AHHHHH! Thank you for telling me to look! I LOVE IT! I got my provisional acceptance as well :) Thank you ALL for being here on this journey with me. I am thanking God!

Klansdow, that must help distract you quite a bit! Although moving is pretty stressful as well... Are you applying to Traditional or LPN-RN bridge program?

Suzieschu, congratulations on the second baby! Stay healthy and relax!

I am definitely glad we have everyone here to talk it out with! What are things you guys have been doing to occupy your minds?! Brian_j, sounds like you are busy with work. Jessi_o, those videos sound addictive! I should look into those...! haha I l...

Hi klansdow, I am glad you got that letter, too! But yeah, it was so thin I was shaking when I opened it! I guess we just have to deal with the fact that we really won't hear until (at least) June 21st. Also, I see that we have guests reading the th...

That's true. I am just a bit confused because like you said, our application stated three weeks originally after May 21st, and then a letter saying not until after four weeks. But it takes time! And I'd rather them take the time they need than rush!

Also, did anyone else see the letter that said "we will NOT hear anything regarding the status until FOUR weeks after May 21, 2013" ??? MG0907 or NOVA EMT, I know it's been a while, but do you recall reading a letter with that sort of a solid deadlin...

And if it means I get to be in nursing school, I will gladly kiss the "social" life away!

MG0907, nice to hear from you! And thank you for the words of encouragement. I know we all really appreciate it :) I cannot imagine the heart attack from reading that incorrect email. I started to get a headache just reading that. Brian_j, welcome t...

Thanks, NOVA EMT for that info! That seems so far away

Ohhhhh my goodness. I nearly had a heart attack because I saw a letter from NVCC in the mail, but it was just confirmation. It now says that we won't hear anything until FOUR weeks after our May 21st deadline, when originally it was three. I know tha...

Thanks, LPN-RN2012! I remember reading your comments from the previous year's thread! You are sweet to help support us in our emotionally stressful times!!! :) It's comforting. How has your program been so far?!

I did that too! They were so supportive of each other it was great. I read the year before that as well. Definitely helpful. I think our application was due a week after last year's group, so we will probably find out about a week after they did. May...

Jessi_o, THANK YOU for sharing the info you found out. It is nice to know that I am not alone in my suspense... Did they specify whether they will email or mail letters? I am just wondering if I should continue to obsessively stalk my mailman or my ...

By the way, do you have any idea when NVCC plans to send out letters?!
