Hey! Yes I applied too, I think with either 159 or 160 points (that darn C in microbio lol) so hopefully that’ll be enough to get in right away! I know they do end up accepting a lot of the alternates usually too but would rather skip the anxiety of that? I just hope either way we’re not waiting long for some answers. I need to know when the orientation date will be so I can schedule my shifts and other plans accordingly since I know that it’s absolutely mandatory to be there. Thanks for starting a new thread for all of us!!

Hey all hope everyone's been having a good summer! One more week:) Does anyone know if we're suppoSed to wear our scrubs on that first Wednesday? Or are we only required to on clinical days? Wasn't sure if anyone caught them saying anything about that during orientation, I'm not even sure if they went over it or not.

It's going by pretty quickly so far, I can't see them keeping us for too much longer. Probably be out by 3 (at least I hope so). I started as alternate #23 and I was instantly disappointed of course. Being only 4 puts behind the initial acceptance, I was expecting thinking to be so much higher on the list! But I guess since they've already accepted the first 18, making me now #5 I guess I'm a little bit more optimistic now haha. Anyone here part of the group of 18 who got accepted this morning? If so, congrats!!!

Oh and as for the blackboard thing, I'm thinking that the "next in line: 1" announcement is referring to the alternate that will receive the next open spot when and if one becomes available. I'm sure in the weeks following orientation as more alternates accept seats that do become available the number will keep going down the line as a way of letting us know where we stand. But I don't know I'm just guessing. That would make sense though and be convenient for us and advising too. They probably got tired of all the alternates harassing them with frantic emails and phone calls and thought "okay we need to do something about this"

I swear you are reading my mind today, Mrslaflin!! Right after I posted that earlier and thought more about it I thought of those possibilities too:yes: I'm sure you will get your spot within the first week after if not at orientation, but as for me I feel like I will most likely be waiting much longer. I will say this though. I'm really mourning those 8 extra points I could have had from my TEAS right about now! I was only 2 points away from the extra 20:arghh: And unfortunately I didn't have the extra 30 days to try and retake it before the deadline. Did anyone apply to other schools programs and get accepted? I'm curious just because I had looked into doing that a while ago even though Wake was always my first choice, but every other school I had looked at required completely different prerequisites. So I didn't really see the point but I'm just wondering if there is anyone who did, how did other schools point systems and course requirements compare to Wake's?

I was just wondering about that myself! Alphabetically maybe? Who knows lol. Hopefully they answer our hundreds of questions during orientation and if not we can just ask someone after. I'm also hoping a lot of alternates will get a spot at the end of orientation or shortly after like I've read on previous semesters. You'd for sure get one of those spots with one point behind! I'm praying I'm near the top too with 157 so I don't have to wait too long for a spot, if I get one that is:cautious:

Hey Abby, sorry to hear that but with those points you'll be good to go for next semesters admissions for sure. Did anyone receive an alternate letter today? I just got home and still nothing. Now that it's just a matter of day to day, the waiting is even worse! So hopefully we will all have our answers by the end of this week. Preferably tomorrow lol
