Was your class 8 weeks long too?

chicagoing, ADN, RN · Jan 6, 2011

No, we chopped a few days off so I believe it was 7 weeks or just a day shy of 7 weeks long...20 days? We were in class 3 days a week.

RscodADN10 · Jan 6, 2011

Oh jeez. Even shorter time to do really bad. Well thanks again for the info.

Can you believe it we are getting closer and closer to the app deadline and days away from receiving the good news. Which I know it will be!

chicagoing, ADN, RN · Jan 6, 2011

I sure hope we receive the good news!

I am a disappointed, though, that COD will not accept advanced composition in lieu of freshman English (composition). The one semester freshman composition course that I took is equivalent to COD's two semester sequence.

I just submitted my transcript evaluation, so hopefully everything will go well.

So you got to talk to someone or how did you find that out.

chicagoing, ADN, RN · Jan 6, 2011

I sent an e-mail over last week. No, I didn't get to talk to anyone but once my transcript evaluation form is accepted, I should be able to.

Oh wait. The question about the English requirement? I received that info. over e-mail. I need to confirm that with the adviser, though. I know that I could have substituted a higher level math (calculus) for the math requirement but made the decision to take what was for me, an easy A (math for health sciences).

Don't know if you'll know this but worth a try. Did you have to pay the CNA class in full? or could you get a payment plan? I got a payment plan but on the myaccess it doesn't show up. And the screen for the balance it says payment due 1/13/11.

chicagoing, ADN, RN · Jan 9, 2011

I usually sign up for the payment plan but did not for the CNA class. My parents floated me a loan for the class so I was able to pay in full. Can you contact the cashier's office?

RscodADN10 · Jan 9, 2011

Yes that's what I was planning on doing. Just thought maybe the CNA class was different or something.

When you sign up for the payment plan does it show up on my access?

chicagoing, ADN, RN · Jan 10, 2011

I think it should show up under my access, but I am not certain. I don't think the CNA class is any different, though...it is just like paying for 2 3-hour classes :uhoh3:

RscodADN10 · Jan 11, 2011

Can you believe that in just a few short weeks we could find out the news that we have been waiting for for over a year. Well longer but it doesn't matter.

What's the first thing your going to do when you see the envelope?

I'm going to have to wait if my husband is not home. We said we'd go somewhere and open it. I hope it is a provisional letter. I don't know how I'd feel if I got waitlisted.

God all I can think about is that day!

chicagoing, ADN, RN · Jan 13, 2011

Hm...I haven't really thought about that actual day being here. It is somewhere in the far-off future :uhoh3: I wonder if the "size" of the envelope will be any indication of a provisional acceptance or denial. According to the COD website, notifications will be sent out no later than March 18. :uhoh3: :uhoh3: :uhoh3: :uhoh3: :uhoh3:

Oh, it looks as though COD mailed out letters last year starting Feb. 14. I wonder what the application deadline was?
