The wait is BRUUUUTAAAAL

Published

...waiting to get my acceptance letter from school... should be coming in 3-4 weeks.. sometimes I think "when I'm in school" and then catch myself and say "crap, still waiting to hear back....".. and then I want to vomit.

I want to think positive but then I dont want to set myself up for devistation...

anyone else want to puke from the wait?:uhoh3::o

I'm with you!! I sent my application in September and it could be as late as mid April before I hear. I just want to go to sleep until the email arrives!

I am thinking of it as a long mini vacation.

My application for Fall 2010 start isn't even due until April 2nd, and then it takes 6-8 weeks to find out!!!! Although my application is filled out and ready to go with all documents I haven't turned it in yet because then I know I'm just waiting waiting waiting for FOREVER!! AAAHHHH. lol. Yes, the wait is terrible. Feel like a kid the month before Christmas!! haha

My app is due in May and they let us know the end of June/beginning of July for August classes. The wait is ALREADY KILLING ME and I'm not even done with my prereqs!

I get to hear back from ONE nursing school I applied to around Mid-March. I don't care if I got accepted or not because I already applied to other schools with a different major... Nursing is my first choice but it isn't my only choice. It's so competitive that I gave up on the thoughts of pursuing it! You should have a back-up like I did so you wouldn't have to deal with anxiety. :)

the waiting game is definitely brutal! at the school i've applied to, last year you found out at the end of march. i thought i heard they were hoping to send out letters sooner this year, but maybe that's my wishful thinking. waiting is making me crazy!:confused:

where has everyone applied?

I agree, it's horrible how they make you wait! I am in my first semester of nursing bootcamp, errrrr I mean school, and I applied in July and found out in mid-November! Good luck to all of you!!!!:D

I don't think I will be able to control myself until I am supposed to hear back in March/April....I am just so excited/nervous/anxious....whatever you want to call it! Hopefully soon I will be able to start a thread titled "I am ACCPETED Woohooooooo!"

I know exactly how you feel. The wait is nerve wrecking and stressful. I applied for a BScN program in early november, got my response yesterday. I applied for 4 schools, so the other 3 schools have until late may to respond. I'm just glad I got accepted, no more waiting for me.

I keep saying when I start nursing school this fall, then catch myself, too. I need to stop assuming!

I keep imagining getting a rejection letter because they didn't see my refresher course I took or my transcripts from another school. They claimed they didn't need them because they were already on file. I still asked,"are you sure?" a million times.

Everyone I know keeps talking about how I'm in nursing school. I have to remind them I'm not in yet. They all say I will be. I would be so embarrassed at this point if I didn't get in.

Six more weeks...
