"Patience" Is Not A Word In Our Vocabulary

Published

For those of us that are currently waiting for our results of acceptance or denial into the Fall 2015 start for nursing school, I think we can all agree that the word "patience" is not something we have.

After a long two semesters of pre-requisites, application deadline date of April 1st, final grades posted May 9th and knowing that letters will be sent "sometime before the end of May" I'm afraid that time has officially stood still!

I don't think I've ever anticipated a piece of mail so much in my life. Not even for Christmas as a child. As one of my friends says, "Still checking my email, mailbox, and waiting for the carrier-pigeon!"

Good luck to everyone out there who applied for the Fall 2015 nursing program. May the odds be ever in your favor :nurse::x3:

Please see if you can read more carefully. I said,

I can tell the difference. :)

Again, "excited" is fine. Just try not to look like you're totally decompensating if you want to show people how mature you are. :)

I feel bad that I jumped the gun on her and what she said. I suppose I should be more thoughtful next time. Sorry GrnTea

Apology accepted, no hard feelings. :) Sometimes it's hard to post calmly in the heat of the moment-- I am guilty of this as much as anyone. But I do apologize prn, too.

We're all friends here. We'll like each other one post and dislike the next. We all have the ability to overlook the negatives and appreciate the positives.

Glad everything worked out for everyone :woot:

Thank you!! :D

Well, practicing my patience has finally paid off! I was accepted into the fall nursing program!!!!

I'm glad another person knows now. I'm still waiting on BOTH programs that I applied to. One of the deadlines was June 1st, so I really don't expect to hear anything from them until next month. But the other was May 12th, SURELY they know something by now.

Congratulations!

Congrats! The deadline for both of my schools is June 30th. I had both of the applications in in April though. One school mails letters out mid July and the other mid August. Its finally getting close.

I've been relaxing and enjoying having few responsibilities haha.

Wow, I finally found someone else whose school doesn't send letters until July/August! Everyone else I've talked to/seen got/gets theirs in April or may, with a few in June. Makes me feel better knowing I'm not the only one who has to wait that long!

Also, congrats to TCCfuture_nurse!! That's very exciting news :D
