Hello all, Who else is applying in May for Fall 2014 admission? Let's keep each other up to date! On the new points system, if my semester finishes as planned, I will have 465/500 points. Good luck to everyone!

Mine hasn't. I think they wait for your background check to be resulted, which I understand takes around two days based upon info from others who have had them. And I already turned in my forms!

They don't let you post links to other social media I think, search: EMU Nursing: Class of 2017!

Oh, I'm traditional, forgot about that. Naiya I'm hold out hope for you!!

I GOT IN TOO! Congrats everyone and good luck to those still waiting! I made a facebook group for us: Emu nursing: class of 2017!

Confused ducklings. "Do *you* know anything?!"

If you don't mind me asking, what did you apply with last year?

Guess I can stop checking it daily then

What if I told you that the plural of anecdote is not data?

Thank you for this. I know they're doing the best they can. It's nerve wracking, waiting on news that will affect the whole course of your life!

We are here to vent and share experiences. This is literally the rest of our lives hanging in the balance. We don't need to be told to calm down. It's great that you're disaffected, but people have living arrangements, child care, even relocation to ...

Grrrrr 

As much as I would love to go up there and whine, I'm sure they wouldn't do it. They should really send emails in addition to regular letters. Some med schools do it, why not them?

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! I'm mentally running in a circle and yelling.

I'm trying to enjoy too, Sarah! It's hard. I want to know but I don't want to waste essentially a full month of summer wishing the days away :) I'm going to clean my house top to bottom and organizing my life so that I can (hopefully) make a smooth t...

I have June 20th as the very latest that we'll get the letters, and my phone countdown app says that's only 19 days from now! Some people in past years got theirs as early as the 11th! The closer it gets, the more nervous I become. I've read the past...

Again, I am saying that there isn't a minimum threshold as much as there is a top-down acceptance. New points or not, that is how they have always ranked people. I just think that saying there's a "cut off" above which everyone gets in is misleading ...

I want to make sure everyone knows that there isn't a "cut off" in the sense that there is a minimum you have to meet. They take the top 80 scores for the traditional program and top 32(?) for the second degree. So if someone got all 500 (I seriously...

I'm skeptical of taking academic advice from someone who doesn't know when to use "your" and when to use "you're". Additionally, I vehemently disagree that you don't need to worry about chemical processes. You're not a robot just putting in sx and ge...

Hyperbole and a Half: The Alot is Better Than You at Everything There's no reason to start out somewhere that you don't want to end up.

I don't think they will, they emphasized that it needed to be "experience in a healthcare setting" and that wasn't really your primary duty. You don't have anything to worry about either way, though! I've been thinking, and let's suppose they have 4 ...

It all depends upon who applied. They take the highest point total and then go on down to find the top 80 totals. Thinking about it now, *I'm* nervous too, even though an advisor told me I was "very competitive." This is going to be such a long wait!

Sarah up thread said she would call and clarify tomorrow about the 112 Traditional only vs 112 accepted total. I think that the secretary misunderstood her and there are still only 80 traditional spots, but I hope this isn't correct for everyone's sa...

Which is exactly what I worked out. And since so few people take the Psych 101 lab, de facto we are all looking at 56 as the top number. I don't think those two points are going to make or break anyone, given that apparently they got so few applicant...

I took A&P I and II at EMU and am still at 50. I did not take Psych 101 there, which is worth 3 credit hours, but I am still at 50. So by your logic, it would still only be 57 points available, since you only get one point for the Psych 101 lab. ...
