Still under review. Last name is mid-alphabet. I'm not sure when I submitted, but definitely close to the deadline. 

Same. I'm still complete under review status. I'm a little towards the end of the alphabet but I applied early March. I'm just freaking out at this point and beyond stressed. 

Specializes in Neuro ICU/MICU Trauma Level II, CCRN.

Still under complete, review as well. But, try stay positive and optimistic everyone!

Same. It's not in order by any means. Not by last name, not by when you submitted. There's no method it's just random. I've been watching every post, and know someone personally who also submitted and got a decision and doesn't make any sense. I'm beyond stressed too. I'm out of state and I really need to know sooner than later. It would be a huge move for me and my family if I was accepted. I just want to know, I don't care the decision at this point I'm so stressed.

I'm also in Florida! Pre-approved for mortgage and all that. It will be a very fast move so I am just ready to know so I can move on to stressing about other stuff! 

Hi guys. I also got my acceptance on Monday as well. It was additional review for about a week before it went to blank. I applied in March as well. Would love to join the facebook group!
