Awesome! I started the application on NursingCAS but have not submitted yet. Is anyone planning to go to the CO open house they are hosting in Colorado Springs in Sept?

Oh no!! I'm sorry to hear that. Did you interview or do a Kira assessment?

Not even a hold? This early that's wild. Sorry I know that's such a terrible feeling (multiple rejections under my belt) but hopefully you get some good feedback. Past few years have gotten so soooo competitive

Do you mind if I ask about your background/stats? I'm surprised they are sending decisions already.

It's all good. I wasn't really looking forward to moving across country. I have 7 more schools to hear from. The longer I have to wait the more $ I can save. I suppose that's a positive. It is what it is.
