I definitely will! I have a feeling we'll have to wait until Tuesday. :-(

I got my letter in the mail. I wasn't accepted. Guess its just not my time. Good luck hopefully you got yours in the mail too!

I was not accepted either. I was put on the wait list. I will be going to Benedictine.

jessi05 & mlacy4....question...

I am thinking about going to U of St. Mary. I am 2nd degree seeking. I have 4 classes to finish the gen ed requirment. Did the school give you any reason why you were not accepted? I am not looking at apply for at least 1 more year. What was the process of applying like? Did you have to interview? Any thoughts or tips would be great!

BTW...I looked at BC in Atchison...looks like a great school too!

Best wishes to both of you!

I think this is a good school but the acceptance part is kind of sketchy to me. I know people who have gotten in with a very very low gpa. They just did the usual "there were many qualified applicants." There was no interview just a application, 2 references, and TEAS test (which is simple). I think they favor people who have gone to school their for pre nursing like any other school. The only thing about the school is the costs.

Yes. They both seem like great schools. Do you know what the chances of getting into the school are if you are on the waitlist?

blessedw2&ahubby · Apr 20, 2011

I would guess good if you are high on the list...most people apply to a couple of school and they might deceide to go another to another school. Have you spoke with anyone at the school? Perhaps set up an apt to talk about where you are on the wait list and how this is the school that you want to attend (if that is the case) and "fight" for your spot.

Do you have letters of recommendation? Maybe bring those and meet with the Dean?

guest10/30/16 · Apr 20, 2011

I know I'm in the top five.

guest10/30/16 · Apr 21, 2011

She told me I just need to call and keep checking. I am in the top five and one spot has opened up. I am just very nervous and don't want to get my hopes up if it is not very likely.
