Has anyone applied for the program?

Hey, all -

I wanted to know if anyone else had this issue -

I am all ready to turn in my documentation except one thing - I took English at UCSB in 2005, and there is no online catalog for the 2005-2006 school year (Remember, the description you must submit must be from the year you took it!).

I actually stopped by the nursing office today (they are open, but not everyone is there, since it's Spring Break, so it's a crapshoot if you'll actually get to talk to anyone), and they referred me to Admissions and Records, since I do have the actual printed catalog from that year, but the year isn't listed on the pages for verification. Of course, Admission and Records is closed two days this week, today included. So, I'm gonna call the admissions office tomorrow.

Anyone else have this question or have had it answered? BTW, if anyone had questions about BOG fee waiver verification, I might have a few pointers, since I had to ask about this, as well.

Happy documenting!

Try http://www.collegesource.org/, you will have to create an account etc, but it's free.

I found my CSU Hayward's course discription from 2002 there.

Good luck!

As far as the course description, you could copy the front cover, if it has the date on it, and attach it to the page with the description of your class.

And any tips you have for the fee waiver would be great. I printed up my payment history from online that shows BOG credit, and I also got a slip form financial aid that is filled out by hand. Neither look particularly official.

One of the ladies in the nursing office suggested that tip (the one about using the cover), but she was unsure, as was I, since it is all up to the Admissions Office to decide this aspect of the documentation.

As far as the BOG waiver goes, if you have a payment summary for this semester specifically that can be officially stamped by the FinAid or business office, that'll work. According to the lady, they don't have a specific form that they are looking for necessarily, but if it is a form that don't see all that often, you had best be able to prove its validity.

Today, I obtained the same slip you are referring to (or so I believe), and I believe that will be just fine. Originally, when I went to my current school's FinAid office, the lady was super unhelpful and said there was nothing she could give to me to help out, hence why I had to contact the nursing dept. I went back to the same FinAid office today (this time asking for someone else to help me), and sure enough, they were able to provide me with an official receipt. So, yay!

Hi everyone-

I just wanted to see if everyone is understanding the Personal/Life Circumstances Supporting Documentation Form the same way I am. I see a few applicants talking about getting the proper documentation to submit with the application, but on the form it says:

I have the required documentation for the selected criteria in my possession and will retain it for later submission if necessary. I understand that this signed form is all that is necessary to submit at this time.

Has anybody been told that we actually have to submit the back up documentation with the application? I heard they are quick to disqualify applications and I just don't want to get disqualified for submitting unnecessary documentation. :confused:

Also, it looks like it says to select only one qualifying factor, even if you selected more that one on the application. Has anyone heard if this is correct?

Geez, who knew filling out an application could be so stressful!!:lol2:

Be sure to print the entire attachment that was in your email and submit it with your documentation. As far as which qualifier to choose, pick the one that you have the best documents for. I can't wait till this is all done and we know whether we have been selected! Good luck and hurry up and wait!:)

Hi ONEDAY2BRN,

For Personal/Life Circumstances Supporting Documentation, I understood the document the same as you did.

I read the sentense over and over, because it seemed a little odd.

I submitted the signed form only and holding onto my pay stubs/letter.

According to the Delta Nursing's website, the maximum points that you can earn on Criteria 3 is 2.5 points, I believe that they only accept one qualifying factor.

I got a response from the Admissions and Records Office and am posting this for other students present and future:

When submitting a course description from a catalog that does not have the year written on the individual page, you are advised to submit that page along with the front cover. It is, in fact, just what everyone else on this forum has been recommending.

So, thank you again to everyone for your help! I will be submitting my documentation this week. Yay!

anyone know how many students apply each semester, how many are accepted and how many alternates are chosen?

i'm in the 1st semester at delta so thought i'd chime in here. for our semester they accepted 70 students. delta has 7 clinical sites (for 1st semester anyways) and we had 10 at each clinical site. there were 2-3 alternates chosen, from what i heard anyways. good luck to everyone! if you were asked to submit paperwork it's a good sign! it seems like a long process until you hear, but the program is really well run and organized.

Thanks for the info :) I almost ready to turn in all my documents. After the final ranking, about how long before you were notified that you made it in?

Hi

Why we needed to fill up the former name on an online application. ?????
