Has anyone heard from UNC Chapel Hill about the Summer 2010 start for the ABSN program?

I'm applying for the regular BSN program, and heard that decisions should start coming out mid-March

I applied to the ABSN summer 2010 program and I still haven't heard anything. In one of the blogs I was reading someone from the admissions office said nursing transfer applicants for the summer program would hear in "early" March. I thought early March would have been last week and this week. Hopefully we'll hear something soon!

anyone heard anything yet or received notifications?

[mdaniellek, BSN, RN]

Nope. . .

I called last week and they said decisions would come out last week of March or first week or April. so looks like more waiting...

Doesn't give us much time to get things together if school starts in May.... Hopefully we hear something next week.

I talked to admissions today and they said letters could be mailed out the week of the 22 or 29. Does anyone know any stats...how many applicants vs. how many accepted?

Yeah, that doesn't sound like enough time to have a wait list either.

I was just on UNC portal and had asked about notifications and got pretty much the same answer, except this time "Julie" from admissions said we'd have a decision no later than mid-April. She also said it takes 12 weeks from the application deadline....but doesn't that put us at March 22 for decisions to be made? I really hope it's not around mid-April. I'm out of state and definitely going to need more that 3 weeks to find a place to live if I get in.

Me too. UNC is my first choice but I got into other schools that I don't want to turn down just incase!

That's my situation too. I've got to register for classes at my 2nd choice school by April 5th. I HOPE we hear from UNC before that. I mean I've already had to pay the fee to hold my seat just so I'll have a back up in case UNC doesn't happen. I'm not too happy about all this waiting and I'm sure everyone probably feels the same about that.
