I just got an email stating I’m now 7 of 35. I was 10 of 40. I’m so confused. If 5 people are off the wait list, wouldn’t that make me 5? This is super strange.

Maybe 3 people accepted or waitlisted between 1-9 declined, and 2 people behind you declined?

Maybe? I just want to confirm it’s not a mistake. The email seems to be automated. I’m going to reach out to someone tomorrow. I hate bothering them. I feel like the staff there must be slammed. Did anyone else on the waitlist receive an email today? Hopefully one of you guys on this thread got in today via the 3 drops!

@Justxmarie I received the same email and noticed the same - lost 5 On the wait list and only moved up 3. Maybe people on the waitlist behind us notified them they were dropping off?! (didn’t make much sense to me, but I hate reaching out too!)

I’m wondering if the top 3 people on the wait list heard via phone call or same email today just with acceptance?

I reached out last week and she mentioned I would receive a phone call if I came up on the waitlist.

@Lyds1982 I was told the same. The cohort before covid hit, 15 people got in off the waitlist. I just keep reminding myself that LOL. Yeah, that’s the only thing that makes sense. I’m surprised they’d bother going backwards like that. I assumed they would wait until it came up to the individual’s waitlisted number. Who knows, this is my first time applying. This is all new.

you guys are definitely not alone. I was told BSN admissions would be released before nov 10th, after inquiring again this week - they changed it to directly on nov 10th. (mind you we were originally supposed to find out October 15th!!). It seems the university as a whole is super behind. I'm not even going to get my hopes up for nov 10th in case they delay again ?

No. I said BSN... as in the regular BSN program. My point was that basically all the programs have been delayed and I understand your pain LOL

We we supposed to find out October 15th. Then it got moved to November 10th. And now I'm just hoping we get it on that date and not any later.

I've only been waiting since July 1st and I'm annoyed. I really feel bad for the people that applied for the ABSN cohorts that got merged all into one. I really hope you guys find out soon. I don't know what I would be doing in your position. Prob blowing up admissions inboxes LOL

OH Hopefully not! I hope you find out on the day too!

I was the one that applied to two cohorts that got merged! Since 5/1 and haven’t heard anything!
ahhh....I am actually really annoyed tbh. Since when I first emailed they said Sept...then oct...then mid oct.... then two weeks from mid oct.... -.-. I annoy them too much LOL.

I’m really annoyed with them, applied to other schools and plan to accept whoever contact me first at this point. I’m part of the 5/1 cohort, I don’t get any response back from them after emailing admissions department. Once I email ----------------------, that’s when everyone want to answer -.-
