Super important question I know.... What kind of White shoes are y'all finding? I'm loathe to spend the money on Dansko (which I know I love) since I am not crazy about owning white shoes...

Awesome news valeriatackitt! Congrats to everyone finding out today & see you all on Wednesday for orientation!

While Micro isn't required for application to the CC programs, it is required to be taken prior to the beginning of the second quarter of the nursing program. I am fairly certain it is an OCNE requirement, across the board, no matter what school you ...

Awesome news ready4nursing! One of my friends is right behind you on the wait list so hopefully they are calling more people this week! Did they email you or call you? Only two weeks until orientation! Hooray!

This is the list posted on the PCC clinical page - guess I'll just see what my doctor suggests. Seems silly to have to get vaccinations on top of a titer if you've already had chicken pox... "Documentation of current immunizations: Two-step PPD...

PCC won't give out immunization information until orientation. And...I have a regularly scheduled doctor appointment before orientation of course! So...do any of you have any insight on what is required for us old timers that actually had chicken po...

Hey y'all! I've sent in my deposit and letter of intent to PCC so I'll be joining you in the fall. I prefer to stay anonymous for AN but look forward to meeting you all in person. I too am wondering about child care but realize I can't really make d...

For all of you on the wait list for CCC, I've just turned in my form that declined my seat. I've decided to accept the invitation to PCC as it is closer to home/better for my family/etc. It was an agonizing decision to say the least! I've heard such ...

Ah...I see what you are saying Kvedaa. I thought you were suggesting that even if you get finished with the ADN with good grades and pass the NCLEX, that you would still need to go through a competitive selection process rather than transition to the...

Statement of Intent to enroll is due to CCC by May 24th in order to hold a seat for Fall 2013. I imagine they will start notifying alternates soon after that date.

I received an acceptance letter from both PCC and CCC! Hooray! Congrats to everyone else! Jshayy: No worries! I will make my decision as quickly as possible so that others out there can learn their fate. Just need to crunch numbers, figure what works...

Congrats to you that were accepted! Your hard work has paid off! :) :) I am #41 on the waitlist CareerinHealthCare: #20 seems a good place to be considering the trend the last couple years!

Well, I got my email from PCC - waitlisted

Yep, 93 people (I am assuming of the 120 invited) sent an RSVP according to the woman who proctored our written portion. And yes, I may exceed my data this month from constantly checking my email with my phone! :) I hope they send letters out early!

Not sure the total number that applied to CCC, but at our interview we were told that 93 were participating in the interview process.

prfoodie: I enjoyed the personal aspect of having an actual interview as opposed to the essay only approach that PCC takes. I appreciate that CCC takes the time to put a name, face, and personality to our applications. How did I do? Not sure (I thin...

Finished my CCC interview/essay and the great news for all of us is that CCC plans to make their decisions by May 10th. There is a light at the end of the tunnel! :) Good luck to everyone else who is slated to interview!

prfoodie: I'm sure you'll do great - I am today at 2:45! Excited to finish this one last step in the application process. I wish I was able to do the morning slot but today is my day to volunteer at my daughter's school, so I'll get to think about it...

Hooray! Finally time for the interviews at CCC! As I mentioned before, I'll be there Wednesday afternoon. I am so happy to be getting all the interviews/essays out of the way. Even though this is the most important part of the application process, I ...

ready4nursing: Congrats on finishing the PCC essay - it is a huge relief to have it out of the way! I have my CCC interview next Wednesday too (afternoon). I'll be thinking positive thoughts for all us interviewing with CCC over the next couple week...

I finished my proctored essay at PCC this morning. Either it was pretty good or the worst thing I've ever written! LOL :) I am happy to have one more step out of the way. The information given at the essay was that they are offering acceptance the t...

Christy24 - I wish my PCC essay was today! Alas, I am scheduled for Thursday morning and am excited to get one more step closer to nursing school. I have my interview with CCC next Wednesday the 24th and then I sit and wait...and wait...for the resu...

I too got my CCC invite today! Congrats to everyone else who got the invite as well. Also, I'm sending out calming, confident vibes to all of us that have our PCC essays next week. Can't wait to hear how it goes for all of us!

Thanks prfoodie!
