Thanks so much for your post mcboisvert. Just to clarify, do you mean that everyone who was accepted already received a phone call and will also receive a followup e-mail or that some people received acceptance through phone call and others will receive it by e-mail? In other words, are those of us who did not receive a phone call officially out of the running or is there still a chance we'll receive an e-mail letting us know we've been accepted? Sorry for my confusion!

Well I suppose celebrating with pathogens is appropriate given the circumstances! Congratulations to you as well Sally. Do you mind telling us whether you heard back yesterday or today?

Congratulations on your acceptance Lindsay! How exciting! Will you do anything nice to celebrate? Thanks for letting us know when you were called. Is it possible that your name is Ashley Asterson? And May25th is Betsy Bluday? And they are calling folks in order of their name? Lol. I'm just grasping at straws now. It's approaching midday and still no call/e-mail on my end.

Well you are not alone in your anxiety. I woke up bright and early with PLU taking up 100% of my brain space! I haven't heard anything either. I hope that they are still making calls. I'll post if I hear anything. Best of luck to you.

By phone? Oh my gosh, you must have been freaking out! Hahaha, were you able to manage a response or were you too overwhelmed with emotion? Did you get any other juicy details? I've been trying to convince myself that it will be okay either way but the truth is my heart is set on getting into this program. I truly believe one door closing means another is opening. It will just be really hard to keep that in mind if I'm rejected. Sheesh. I assume you are right Hopejoy, there will probably be more acceptances tomorrow. Let's hope! *deep breaths*

Did any of you other folks receive an acceptance? I wonder if they have been sending them out all day or just begun towards the end? Yikes. I hope I'm still in the running! I am really happy for you May 25 but I'm a total wreck now!

Congratulations! You must be over the moon!

Called the nursing department...they said the letters will be going out in a few days. I didn't speak with any department head - just the general line. Hmmmmmm. Hope joy, if you do call please post and let us know what they said!

Yup, we are probably all in the same obsessive cycle of checking this forum and our e-mail every few seconds. Does anyone know how waitlisted folks find out their status? Snail mail or e-mail? May 25, what department did you call (nursing or graduate studies) when you asked where they were at with applications. Did it seem certain that they would send out their decisions either yesterday or today?

Wow! It's going to be hard to focus on anything else tomorrow. Thanks for letting us know. I hope folks will post as they receive their news! Good luck!

I called admissions today and asked when we could expect to hear whether or not we had been accepted. The answer? Early March at the earliest. They are still looking through our applications and are even receiving some new ones. Needless to say, I'm pretty bummed. I was hoping to hear back from them within the next few days. C'est la vie. I suppose we've already waited this long already. What's another month?

Thank you for updating us! I've been checking back here frequently in hopes of getting more information, so I really appreciate it! I'm happy for you that all of your hard work and dedication has paid off. If you are willing, please let us know when your snail mail letter comes and if you get any other information. Congratulations again and good luck to the rest of us! Hopefully more of us will be able to celebrate soon!

That's my understanding. One personal essay in which we were to discuss our career goals and our reason for wanting to attend PLU. Mine was on the long side. I wonder if I did myself a disservice by not being more brief. I tell you, the waiting is not helping my sense of moral!

Congratulations Sheniell! What fantastic news. I hope you did something to celebrate. Like May 25th, I am also curious to know how you found out. I'd also love to hear if you know how many have been accepted and how many have applied. Congratulations again!

Oh! One last thing, just out of curiosity, how long were your essays?
