Hey Wallace, may I please have a copy of the med guide too? I'm taking the Nclex in a week and I'm so nervous. email is: [email protected] Congrats on passing!!

Hey kathy it's good that you are trying to prepare in advance. That's the attitude you want to have. As far as the prerequisite policy goes: You can apply if you still have to do some classes but you MUST have EVERYTHING done before the actual program starts. Personally I had all the classes done before, but I also spent almost 3 years at the City College (repeating classes). So for example I could have still taken classes this (Fall 2013) semester and applied to get into January Spring 2014. But if I was missing even ONE class by January, they would not accept me. Also if you still need to take classes the semester before the program starts (during the application deadline), you're going to want to talk to a Resu counselor so that they know that you will be finished by the time the program starts. At least this is the way I understood it by what they told me. Just get the official ATI TEAS V book. I believe you can find it on Resu's website. The TEAS test is pretty much just a general overview of the 2 years of prerequisites that you will be taking. So as long as you do well in your science classes and read the ATI TEAS book you should do fine. One final tip that I wish that someone had told me my first year. I will assume that you will be taking the prereqs at the City College or some other community college. I STRONGLY suggests that you take the gen ed classes (english 1+2,sociology,statistics, music etc) online because it will save you a ton of class hours and you can concentrate more on your harder science classes (you can't take any of the sciences online). You will receive the same credit as if you would have went to the physical class (check with your school and Resu's tranfer guide). I think at the city college every one of Resu's prereqs is available as a online class except the sciences and psychology classes. Again check with your school. Good luck and Godspeed.

Oh happy day!! I finally got the call a few minutes ago and I got accepted!!!! It took awhile but better late than never. Still waiting for the required documents to pop up in my student portal. He said that I actually did really well but there was a high volume of applications to go through. So for all of those who didn't get the call yet, be patient because they might take a while. Congratulations to all of those who got accepted. I'll be seeing you this January.

Congratulations on being accepted Yazmin! Every time my phone rings I think its Resurrection calling and I sprint to answer my phone. Was it only a call or did they email you? Did they tell you what the next steps were? (financial aid, drug screening, orientation, books etc?) One more question: Just to get a better timeline on how long they took to reply, How close to the deadline did you turn in the application? A day or so or was it like a week before the deadline? Sorry if I'm being too intrusive I just can't stand not knowing anything. congrats again, I'm hoping I'll get the call soon

Well the anxiety finally got the best of me and I gave admissions a call. Good news and bad news. The bad news is that some people have already been accepted (she didn't know how much) I will assume is it people who turned in their applications a lot earlier. She said it is usually a month after you turn in the application that we will find out. It's been past a month so it should be any day now. The good news is she said there are 72 spots left!! Plenty enough space for us 3. Keep your phones on hand.

I heard that it will be both email and calling. More than likely it we will hear in about 2 weeks hopefully. When I called last week they said in about 3-4 more weeks we'll probably find out. It makes me uneasy when I read the last spring applicant thread and they already accepted like 15 people by late august. I'm sure they probably have accepted some people already for spring 2014, hopefully they'll get to us soon. The wait is killing me! I'm trying to stay positive but it's hard with so much suspense. I'm debating whether or not to call again since I just called last week and I don't want to annoy them. Has anyone heard anything?

Hello now that the Sept 1st deadline has passed and those who applied are all anxiously waiting to hear from Resurrection, I feel it's appropriate to start a thread for those who are trying to start this January. It would be great to hear from all those who are applying for spring 2014 or even those who have applied before. To be honest with you I read some other threads about previous applicants and it seems like some people that turn in everything really early get accepted even before the official deadline. When I went to the school to turn everything in they told me that they start deciding who they accept about one month after the deadline (Oct 1st). So if anyone got accepted already please let us know. Also 2 thing that I just found out about Resurrection that you might not have known: -they no longer do guaranteed admissions (I believe this is a fairly recent change) -if you apply for Spring and don't get in, you can't apply for Fall, you must wait 1 full year in between applications -This is what I was told by the Resu staff but you might want to verify this information if it changes things for you Anyways it would be great if I could hear where other applicants stand. To start I applied with a 3.4 gpa, I believe I had a 3.0 science gpa and an 83 on the TEAS. I think my essay was alright. But like I said since they are not doing guaranteed admission, I am still worried. Also if it matters I barely made the sept 1st deadline by a day or so. Looking forward to hearing from everyone
