UMB Spring 2010 Applicants (BSN or CNL)

Published

After following the Fall '09 thread with great interest, I thought it might be time to start a new thread for the Spring '10 applicants since we're inching closer to the Sep 1 deadline. I have a technical question for those who have applied before. I submitted my CNL application online this morning and paid the $50 and now it seems like my application has slipped into a vortex that I don't have access to. When I log onto SURFS to check my status, the only option that it gives me is to submit a new application. Is there somewhere else on the website that I should be looking to confirm that my application has been submitted and is pending review or awaiting additional information (transcripts, recommendations, etc)? Perhaps there is a delay between when the application is submitted and when the status is visible?

Best of luck to all the other applicants...now the agonizing waiting game begins! Looking forward to giving each other support and encouragement on this thread.

Rest assured there are plenty of people who care - honestly.

Grey lady,

Do you know a day? I have mandatory orientation for my second choice next friday...i need to buy a plane ticket down there and be prepared to cough up roughly $900 for equipment, uniforms, background checks, and things like that. I do not have anymore time to sit around and "wait". I called UMB and was told decisions would be made "asap", frankly that isn't good enough anymore.

Exactly to my point.....:o

Oh, my God. I am literally tearing up. I promise that as soon as I hear anything I will post. So wishing there was something else I could do.

You...my dear "Grey Lady"....have done more for us than you can image....our future "nursing caps" are off to you!!:yeah::loveya:

Oh, thank you......especially for those smily thingies.

how much longer? next week or this week? thank you for all your help, but I still would like to know what shortly means... and if I should go to my orientation and purchase their books online, etc. thank you!

I so wish I had the answer. Anything I could tell you now would be conjecture and I would hate to think that anyone would make a crucial decision based on that. You must be so tired of me asking you to be patient for a little while longer. I will go to bed praying for good news for all of you tonight, really.

Guys-- we'll hear soon. If I had to make a guess, I would say by next Tuesday. I've been trying to distract myself but every time i get near a computer I check my application status or this forum, it's making me crazy! I know there is nothing but good news to come...just hang in there. We should all be saying our prayers tonight!

Lady Grey, thank you so much..you have been of great help to everyone ... i really hope we all get that good news before this week runs out.
