Is there anyone here that is applying to the San Jose State University nursing program for Fall 2013?!
Oh, Scwolf, I'm sure your impaction score is in the 11's. I am so sad, this was my top school, and there's just no chance whatsoever with a 10.41 score. I can't beleive that they don't consider certifications (EMT, CNA, etc), recommendation letters, or multicultural experience. It's all about numbers. Unfortunately, numbers don't necessarily make good nurses.
I just received my acceptance letter! Phew! It's my first acceptance (after a couple of rejections) so it sure feels good. Plus it has been a long road!
I'm not sure if I will accept. I'd like to hear from the other CSUs I've applied to. So I may be opening up my spot for someone on the wait list. We'll see.
Good luck to the rest of you!
P.S. I don't know what my impaction score is. How did you folks calculate yours. (Sorry if I'm being dense here.) I had a 3.7 cumulative GPA, 3.9 on pre-reqs, and a 94 TEAS score, if that helps.

Great job. Honestly. I know it's one of the greatest feelings!
Did you get an email or a letter?
I didn't receive a letter yet, but I did get this email: "I am sending this to individuals who got letters in the past 48 hrs, regarding acceptance for NURSING, for a Fall 2013 start (Provisional) [ FYI also, must accept UNIV if not already here too!]-- and several of you, already tried to download ( and were frustrated b/c of broken links) the creative securities background screen information to follow up on the background info ( due with return payment and form) in next 2 weeks basically---> although you could open under "policies", the "policies and procedures pdf" , the other screening documents did not open-- OUR web guru should have it fixed by later today (THURS ?) -- Check then- Thanks and sorry for the confusion! Hope this helps!"
Does this mean I got in, and my letter's just still in the mail?

I haven't calculated my impaction score yet. One thing to remember, though, is that a lot of people (like me) who have applied to SJSU have also applied to several (or many) other programs. I've seen that a lot on these blogs. So, even though the impaction scores might be high, I bet a lot of those students will choose to go to another program, for all sorts of reasons. So don't despair, everyone!
Good luck!
