Wonder if that's because that's when the application FAQs specify (and they just have to keep following those guidelines), or if they are really truly behind. I'm really hoping they will be here soon!

That's nice to have a degree related to health. Mine are in Recreation Management and Communication. I have heard that they like a varied background, though, so I'll just keep my fingers crossed since there is nothing I can do about it now. I just started House of Cards, I'm keeping VERY busy :)

I hope so! I had a family member point out "maybe you should talk about why you're pursuing a third degree so they don't think you are indecisive" -- so I've had mixed feelings. Wish the letters would just get here so I can stop worrying about it :)

I applied to UNC as well. I heard today that in recent years, folks start getting letters around the first week of March (maybe closer to the end of that week). With all the inclement weather we've had, I wonder if it will be delayed. Like you all, I'm super nervous! I'm a second degree (okay, third degree) seeking student. Good luck to everyone! Que sera sera -- what will be, will be! Please keep us updated if you get any updates!!

Thank you so much! Every lead helps :)

Good Morning! I am currently in my last semester of pre-requisites. I'm finally to the point where I can begin applying to some schools (I've applied to UNC and hear back in April). I live in Durham, NC and currently work full time. UNC is about $28,000 for the BSN program. Duke is even more. Aside from university programs, there are a few community colleges in the area, which average around $10,000. I've spoken to someone with Alamance Community College (where I'm taking pre-requisites), and their program would be part time (since I already have a college degree/general ed requirements), and take about 2.5 years. I've also been unsatisfied with a couple of my instructors there so far and worry about the quality of my education. I'm reaching out to see if anyone has opinions, resources, advice. My husband and I already have about $46,000 in student loans, so I want to try not to add to that. His salary would not allow me to study full time, unless I supplement with loans. I'm willing to sign contracts to work in certain places, for certain hospitals -- anything if I can find resources that may help me pay for school! Sorry for the novel :) Any help is so much appreciated. Best, Carlyn
