The Wait Begins... Any Other NVCC 2012 Hopefuls?

Published

So, after a few years of pre-requisites and co-requisites and getting used to school again after a break for a few decades, I finally submitted my application for the Traditional program at NOVA.

I have a feeling this is going to be a loooong 5 or so months of waiting.

Anyone else apply/applying?

You might as well submit the application now since there is no harm done in getting it in early.

that's true i want to go to open house first. They said i can bring transcript to show the academic advisors for them to check which of my prereqs will transfer.

That's good, I'm really kicking myself now for taking the NAS161/162 route instead of the other classes as I pigeon holed myself into NVCC only. Oh well, if I don't get in I guess I can retake those classes lol

I did take the NAS 161 and 162 route as well.

I took NAS 161 & 162 but also took a seperate microbiology do you think they will transfer like that?? Because I thought the only reason they don't transfer is because you need a seperate micro, if any one knows if this is true could you please let me know?? Thanks.

The nas 161 and 162 i took at MEC came with microbiology already. But again, i had a diff teacher. I don't know elsewhere how it is. I am not really sure if it transfers or not. I just took it because it was the #1 sequence.

Hi everyone! Thanks for create this forum. I am also applying for Traditional Nursing Fall 2012 and waiting...... I don't have any degree in US. I am worried that I got rejected. Is someone who doesn't have any degree got accepted?

Could somebody please let me know which Humanities/Fine Arts Elective class (easiest) should I take? Thanks.

Hi Penguin2012,

Welcome it is always nice to have other people to chat with during this time.....to answer your first question lots of people are admitted without a prior degree it is not a requirement for admission to the nursing program and to answer your second I took Ethics 220 and a speech class, hope this helps you out!!

When did you apply to the prorgram??

Good Luck :)

Thanks LPN-RN2012. I sent my application on April. I plan to take REL110 ( I think it is easier because it is level 100 :-) ). Now I am taking HLT250 and HLT141 online.

Hi ladies! I just applied to the traditional nursing program for fall 2012!! I sent in my application/checklist on may 14th and it was delivered the next day (I asked MEC and they said it was okay as long as it was dated by the 14th).. This is my second time applying, i was rejected last year so I repeated NAS 161&162, I have finished all prereqs and the coreqs for the program. My GPA is a 3.6 and my teas were all in the 90's. I noticed some are applying to the LPN-RN track and have gotten emails..but has anyone applying to the traditional track received an email of conformation? GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!! :)

Hi MG0907-

I sent in my application with tracking before the May 14th deadline. I applied for the traditional nursing track as well. Still no confirmation email or letter stating that my application is being processed. It makes me a little nervous! I called the other day to see if they could tell me more about why some have gotten emails/letters stating that MEC recieved apps and I was told that if I haven't heard anything it just means they are still processing the applications. Who knows??? I guess I'll just have to wait till mid June to know whether or not I made it.

Good luck!
