I have no good advice for you... I simply offer you the knowledge that your notice will come, you will stalk your mail carrier and think the one day you didn't even receive junk mail is the day the mail carrier messed up and put your acceptance letter in someone else mailbox by mistake, you will drive your family crazy with worry, and then magically one day it will come in the mail. Our program extended their deadline twice ultimately by a month so I went crazy since I applied the day after the app period opened. It was horrible and my husband and family teased me over checking the mail so often. Now that I have been accepted I am anxiously awaiting the orientation and first day of class. Good luck to you and hopefully this will be your year. Stay strong and hopeful!

Which location did you apply to? And if you don't mind me asking how many points did you have? I want to make sure I'm at least in the ball park.

Which location did you apply for? I was told they are having a meeting next Wednesday and will send letters out after that

I might go crazy because the LVN deadline was April 25 and it was extended twice now it is may 17. Oh well. Good luck with the bridge I plan to bridge soon after my LVN

I know, I have an intense urge to start buying thing to go toward my LVN/LPN program but I am afraid it may be a waste of money. If you are wanting to prepare yourself start researching the different kinds of shoes you may want for school. They can be very expensive and if you buy the wrong type it could be pretty painful. Find a local scrub shop that carries the brands you want to try and go get fitted. The Dansko's are a popular nursing shoe but the sizing is a little funny so I wouldn't buy any until you have tried them on. On other supplies, My local scrub shop gives college students a 20% discount on the things "listed" as required items by my nursing program so if you have something like this close it can be significantly cheaper than ordering online through Amazon or Ebay. Anyway, You will probably need a pin light, stethoscope, BP cuff, flat watch with second hand (was told by a nurse this is better to find one that has an elastic band since you will be moving it to scrub hands on a regular basis). I have also been told that you may want to find a crate to put in your vehicle for extra textbooks you are not using so you can have access to them quickly and they wont slide around much. Hope this helps.

I applied for the LVN program however a girl I know applied for the RN at TJC at she received her acceptance letter this week. It was dated April 22. Good luck to you all and I hope your mail box has blessings waiting.

Our application window was March 18th- April 25 and I applied March 19th so I could get it off my chest. Now at this point there is nothing I can do but wait focus on A&P I and my maymester course. I spoke with the Dept. Chair yesterday and she stated our notices would be mailed by the 3rd week in may... One more month of agony. I feel confident about my standings but it is still so nerve racking when I want this sooo badly.

I won't find out until the middle of May! I'm so nervous and excited. Fingers crossed and prayers sent... Here goes.

Just wanted to check to see if anyone out there has applied or is going to apply for the LVN program at TJC for Fall 2013. I have submitted my application and I can not wait to find out if I'm in or not. If you have applied or plan to apply how many points should you have?
