I already applied for Nursing at SJSU for Fall 2012 and I am just waiting for the acceptance/nonacceptance now. I am beyond stress and worried that I might now get in because I am competing with so many smart applicants. I impaction is extremely low, its a 10.08, and usually the cut off are around 10.02-10.10, so I am basically at the cut off point. I am proud of my impaction score because I know that I did the BEST I could, but the problem is maybe my best isn't enough. I really want to focus on my current classes right now, but I find it extremely hard while I wait for my possible denied letter. I don't have an option B career, nursing has been the only thing I wanted to do ever since I was little, so if I don't get in, i'll be extremely disappointed and depressed. I contacted the nursing committee to ask them when they will be sending out the acceptance/denied letters, and they said they would be sending letters out the first week of May. Waiting is really tiring. I okay to wait if you know you have a high impaction score and have a high chance of getting in the nursing program, but if you have a low impaction score like me; in the range of being cut off, it's really nerve racking. I really hope someone understands what I am going through, because I it's really hard to express with words how I am feeling right now. Thank you guys. I appreciate any advices/input! What was the lowest impaction score that got into the nursing program your semester?
I am more stress than ever, I feel like I am going to get rejected a second time; gosh I really hate this feeling! Nursing is constantly on my mind, I checked my email like 65 times a day, and check this website more than 54 times a day to see if anyone update anything. To see if anyone drop or not. I don't know what else to do; I just need you guys to pray for me.
I will update you next week when I hear from Sac/SDSU. I probably will decline/cancel the offer if I get into one of the other programs but I won't know until right before the deadline.
If you guys know anyone else that got accepted to SJSU, but does not want to go, please convince them to drop as there are people who really want to get into the program. Thank you so much Seashelleyes for your notification.

Wishing the best for you BigLaughter! I hope you get in!!!
Thank you so much 1waitingpatiently, that really means a lot to me. I really do hope I get in, but I don't want to get me hopes up and have it crush again. Thank you so much for giving up your spot 1waitingpatiently, I really hope enough people will drop so I can get in.
Thank you 1waitingpatiently. I have until next week for people to drop, and see if I will be able to get in. I really want to get into the nursing program. Please continue to pray for me 1waitingpatiently.
I can't get nursing off my head for one second! Only 3 people drop so far, that means I am in the 9th position now, and still need 9 more people to drop before I can get in. This is so frustrating! UGH! I am going out of my mind.
Seashelleyes, have your heard from SDSU or Sac yet? If so, have you decided where you want to go yet? Please update me, I am dieing from the waiting...
Biglaugther, Let me first say that you sound like an amazing, dedicated person, and I know you will go far in life. If you have the passion for it, I promise you you'll get into nursing school. I got accepted to SJSUs nursing program last semester and let me tell you boy was it competitive. I honestly didn't even think I was gonna get in. TO my suprise I did. But the most important thing I wanted to tell you is this: although all of the accepted people from last semester decided to go through with it, a few days before orientation (which was the week spring semester was scheduled to start) two girls dropped out. The nurs department still called 2 more people from their 'waitlist' to replace the two, even though we were literally about to start classes in like 3 days. These two girls joined us and literally had to do their background check, health statement very quickly. PS: What's your name?? I might know you haha
I actually cried reading your post. Reading your post gives me hope; I still have a shot at this. It's just that I am so stressed... I am so bipolar right now, one moment I think it's alright, 9 more people will drop and I will get in, a few second later, "no one is going to drop, if it was me, I wouldn't so why would they?".... 9 is large number, I really don't think that many will drop since it is so hard to get into the nursing program, so why would they drop.., but I am still clinging on to the last bit of hope. This is like a second rejection if 9 people don't drop. I am going out of my mind. I am still depress out of my mind. I can't even concentrate on my finals, essays, midterm....If I didn't make it in this semester, I won't be able to make it in next semester because my impaction score will go down.
