I got that scholarship email, too, but haven't received an acceptance yet.

Yeah! Let me know! When are you heading over there?

Congratulations, you guys! I'm still waiting to hear, even though I was told I would for sure hear by today at the latest. Ugh. Would you guys mind telling me if any financial aid info was included in your acceptance? I'm trying to decide if I should...

I just called, and was told at LEAST one more week on the decision. Ugh. I'm thinking about just going with Johns Hopkins. Has anyone gotten any financial aid info with their acceptance? Even with the Peace Corps scholarship I got from JHU, GWU is st...

Yeah the military program you're talking about is different. The Nurse Corps Scholarship Program is NOT a military program. I hoped to apply, but it requires that one of your two references be academic. I can't provide that. All of my prerequisite cl...

My call came on Tuesday and the mail came on either Friday or Saturday (I was out of town).

I'm still waiting, too. FYI when I called a couple weeks ago the guy said they only put out decisions on Fridays, so no need to frantically check during the rest of the week!

I just got accepted into nursing school and I DID mention midwifery in my statement, so there's one person's situation. I talked about how important a strong nursing education was to help me get to where I want to be.

I got accepted at Johns Hopkins! That's my first choice anyway, but waiting to hear from the other school still.

Hey guys! So I know this is for the Summer entry BSN/MSN, but there doesn't seem to be a thread for the Fall entry ABSN (well, I made one but nobody else has answered). Anyway, I just got accepted to the Fall ABSN (not the BSN/MSN), with a Returned P...

Pugluv - sorry to hear that. Congratulations to all of you getting accepted! I only applied to the ABSN, but they had a "system error saying they received a transcript that actually never arrived" (which is code for Someone Lost Your Transcript But W...

Congrats on JHU! I have to take Anatomy and Physiology in the summer, so I can't wait until then unfortunately. I just moved back to the states so I've been limited in how quickly I can do prereqs - only online and no proctor required. So I've got tw...

Ugh I just called, and the guy told me it will probably be another three weeks. I'm in a pickle because GWU and JHU have slightly different requirements, so I have to sign up for classes for both, and PAY for both, with no guarantee of a refund for w...

No, it was an email.

Good luck to everyone! I applied to Johns Hopkins and George Washington for the Fall. No word yet.

Congratulations! I didn't get an acceptance email, but apparently my application is under final review... whatever that means. Probably just that I technically qualify so now they have to decide.

Scratch that, it worked on another computer!

Spanish is definitely good almost anywhere. I want to plug American Sign Language, too, though, because that's also useful everywhere. Either way, studying another language is a great option for you to keep going when finished with prereqs!

I don't have any suggestions, but it sounds like you're doing a fantastic job preparing. I really hope it goes in your favor - you're very dedicated!

Is anyone having trouble applying to that Washington Squared program? The link keeps taking me to something called SingleSignOn that requires a GW ID to use...

I got that email (and another that a letter of rec was missing), and it was through NursingCAS -though was there any other option besides NursingCAS?

I applied! No word yet, and I doubt any for a while. I did get an email saying they would be reviewing applications in the next two weeks (this being the second week now) and would be in contact, whatever that means. It might've meant letting us know...

Ohh this has been fun to read! :) One of the comments was that if any of these things describe you, you shouldn't go to nursing school. Now, I'm not in nursing school yet (I'm a fall 2014 applicant), but I just want to say I found one or two things t...

Most likely, it will print the odd-numbered pages and then you have to flip over the stack and put them back in the printer for it to print the even-numbered pages.

Hmm, that's strange; I've never heard of a system like that. Normally, an A is 90.0% or higher, unless the school uses +/- in which case it's usually something like 92% or higher with 90-91.9% being A- (the exact cutoff varies I think). That seems a ...
