The waiting is unbearable!!!!!!

[macizu]

Holy crap the waiting is unbearable!!!! I'm dying here:bugeyes:!!!! Why do they take soooooo looooong?????? Acceptance letters go out next month (March) and I got a call yesterday from one of the nursing academic advisers who was reviewing my transcript, but I won't know anything till next month!!!!!!!!!!!!

Someone hold me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am waiting until mid-April for the letter and it is really making me anxious. I am taking other classes so I try to stay busy, but everyday when I walk by the Health Occupations Center at school, I have to restrain myself from going in there and saying, "Please, please, I beg of you, did I make it in or not?!":uhoh3:

Acceptance/rejection letters come out March for me as well.

I can't wait! ..I'm so nervous.

[tfleuter, BSN, RN]

Application deadline for me is in May. I still have to take the TEAS in March and still have 2 classes to take during the summer before starting in the fall. So even though I'll be busy, I'm already feeling anxious too, and I haven't even applied yet!!

This really is not fair to all of us to have to wait so long! I think they do it on purpose. I applied to an Accelerated BSN program and am anxiously awaiting a reply. Even though I know that I won't hear anything until March, my heart still races every time I open my mailbox.

I made the decision to go back to school to become a nurse over 1.5 years ago. I was really busy while working full-time and taking my pre-reqs. Now, I am done with my pre-reqs and am still working, but I feel like I have so much free time, which I spend thinking and worrying about whether or not I got into the program. Also, I have been going through all the different stages. Soon after applying, I was excited and hopeful, but now I am going through the denial stage. I keep thinking, "There is no way I am going to get in!"

I have been waiting a year and a half to get into the nursing program. Waiting three more weeks should be easy....right? Oh my gosh, I am going crazy!!!

I know exactly how you feel. I find I am doubting doubting myself all the time these days. I have friends in the program now, so I talk to them and use their books to do a little reading ahead. Figure it can't hurt and helps me stay motivated.

Good luck and hang in there.

It's all about the waiting! I have been slowly but surely taking all of my pre-reqs just waiting for that moment when there are openings in my program... I am waiting for March 1st to get the final paperwork, then I have to wait until April 1st to even postmark it (mail it to them) and theeeen i wait and cross my fingers that my time has come to start Spring 2010!

I feel your pain~

I feel your pain!! The university will send notifications in March. It's killing me too!! But I've decided to stop checking my status online everyday. It is only making the anticipation worse.

[macizu, BSN, RN]

I'm exactly in the same boat as you guys/gals. My date to find out if I got in is sometime in March as well. Let's all keep our heads up and just hope for the best. But man that waiting is really unbearable!! :angryfire

[HyperSaurus, RN, BSN]

It's killing me too. All I know is that I will hear back sometime before registration. I'm pretty sure I won't get in this semester (3.23 gpa), but I'm currently retaking 3 pre-reqs, and getting A's in all of them, which will raise my gpa to 3.77. But if I don't make it this round, I have a semester of sitting on my hand--all prereqs are done.

I feel you on this one! I won't hear anything until the end of the semester! I was told it has something to do with the availability of instructors for the fall semester.

[seamel]

I am going crazy as well! Right there with you all. I sent in my application Jan 5th and I literally think about it all the time.

They told us at an info meeting we would hear in April, but I called them to fix something on my app, and then decided to ask when I would hear back, and they said March. So hopefully I don't get my hopes up for March and then still not hear back until April!

Good luck everyone! This SUCKS!

my school bases acceptance on a points scale. Well i have a 4.0 and a 26 on my ACT so i thought i was a shoe in for fall with 93 points(usually they accept right around 70 pts). then come to find out a math class i took didn't count because it was developmental so they had to use my GED score rather than my GPA. I actually have 64 points!! I'm hoping it's enough to make the cut. 3 weeks left until i find out! I'm so dissapointed because before i pretty much knew i was in. Now my standing is unknown. I'm dying!! THe suspense is gonna kill me! Wish me luck and good luck to all of you!
