UAB Fall 2016

Published

Hey everyone. I have applied to the Acute/Primary Peds NP program at UAB for fall 2016. I am currently driving myself crazy as I wait for my acceptance letter!! I figured I would write this post to see if anyone else wanted to be crazy with me while we wait!

me too. I definitely did not get an e-mail. That probably is not a good sign.

My only hope is that we were trying for different programs.

Don't worry, I had sent email asking about orientation dates. He was only replying to my question.

Was just coming here to see if anyone had heard anything. I never called to follow up on my NursingCAS screw up, so... I think I'm kinda just waiting to offer all y'all my congrats. But there's a tiny glimmer of hope... Maybe...

Nursing nerd, we received an email awhile ago detailing to us that we would hear by May 1 and that they would tell us if we needed any additional information, did you receive that? (If so, I would assume your application is being reviewed for admission). Best of luck to everyone!!

I got that email... Then, weeks later, when I applied to Samford, I got an "undelivery" notice to all schools. Samford required me to input my transcripts (UAB did not) and I made an error inputting a class I had withdrawn from... I fixed it and they re-submitted, but it was almost a month past the UAB due date by that time (although I had submitted originally on time). So... I never emailed Ms. Bender because I'm terrified I'm just not even in their systems now and it would stress me way out. I guess it's all in God's hands now. What will be will be... [emoji121]🏻️[emoji120]🏻[emoji15] I'm gonna keep reminding myself of that. 'Cause if I dwell... I'm gonna be crazier than I was before!

NursingNerd1, I'm panicking with you. Some of my undergraduate grades were not great and I am very concerned that they may look down on that. I only applied to two schools and I was already turned down by the first one. UAB was my first choice, but now I have practically convinced myself that I won't get in. I also can't find anything that states how many people typically apply and how many are accepted specifically in the AGPCNP. I just can't stand this wait much longer, I am pretty stressed out. I just have no idea if what I am offering is enough.

SCRN we are all right there with you! At this point, since I submitted my application a month early, I have been waiting for almost 3 months to hear a verdict. In the last two weeks I have managed to convince myself that I am not getting in. All of my peds experience consists of flight nursing, don't know if it is enough. I just want to know one way or the other!!

Hey guys, I emailed them the other day and they are in their final stages and decisions will be mailed in about two weeks. Wishing everyone the best
