What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing their experiences with being waitlisted and accepted into a nursing program, specifically focusing on the timing of notifications and the process of being waitlisted. Some members have received acceptance letters after being waitlisted, while others are still waiting for updates. There is also discussion about improving applications for reapplying and increasing science GPA for future applications.

Anyone applying to RFU's CRNA program for May 2025 start? Applications open today in NursingCAS. I don't see the application yet so I plan to check again later in the day.

At the recent open house they stated this class was full. Only can hope for a seat to open by someone withdrawing their spot. Best of luck fellow waitlisters.

Nope 

But I think two people from the waitlist got accepted back in January

Hey everyone-

I got waitlisted back in January and have had zero communication about my application status...doesn't the program start in May? Has anyone heard anything if they've been waitlisted?

Hey,

I was also waitlisted in January. I have not heard anything back from admissions. Sounds like they have waitlisted quite a few people, which I am unsure why they don't just deny people?

I revoke my statement. Clarification was made see below. The director did tell a story about a student giving their spot up Friday before class started Monday. Person came across the country over the weekend and started with the cohort which is crazy but amqzing story for them.

They start May 5 I believe, cohort in progress already.

Orientation is next week. 
First day is 5/27

 

im sure they've had a student last minute give up their spot, which is maybe why you guys are still waitlisted? Not sure 😕

Just got an offer of acceptance this morning! Hopefully more will be as well! Rooting for everyone 🤩🥰

Hello! I see you were a re-applicant. What did you do to make your application better the second time? Did you re-write totally new essays or submit the same ones? Thanks!

I was on the waitlist since January and just got a rejection email. I've been accepted somewhere else but posting as a reference for timing. Honestly kind of forgot I was even waitlisted. They take so long to get back with you, really need to alter this aspect of the application design/process. Hopefully the rest of those waitlisted will hear something in the coming days.
