Good morning!
So I'm going to try this whole process over again, as a repeat offender...I mean applicant for UW's BSN program 2014. I applied last year, made it through the proctored essay portion but was not accepted. After nursing (haha) my wounds w/ large amounts of ice cream, chocolate & such, I've recently found my mojo to try again. Anyone else re-applying or 1st time applying for 2014? I know it's extremely early in the game, but those deadlines come up faster than you think! I've saved all the tips applicants that have applied more than once and hope that 2nd time is the charm.
Anyone else out there getting ready for it? We got this
September 24th would be the last day I could get into the program. However I just recieved my denial letter to the university of Washington itself. Does that mean I'm automatically kicked off the wait list? I don't know what happened, i haven't taken any new classes, same GPA. I think it's because I recycled the essay I used the previous year. Last year I was accepted to UW but not the school of nursing. This year I'm on the wait list for the school of nursing but denied to the school . It's just not meant to be. I'm so mad at myself right now, I was so focused on making everything perfect for SON, I didn't think it would be bad to use the same entrance essay for UW.

If you get accepted into the Nursing program, Academic Services will get you into the University. They have that kind of power. Unless for some reason something was falsified or whatnot, then you're on your own. Good Luck. It was an amazing time and I am already bored not being in the classroom.
Just_Keep_Swimming,
I was waitlisted last year and during the summer, I too was denied entrance to the UW general admission. They do this automatically. Anyone who is not immediately accepted into the program gets an automatic denial. As JLoya says, if you get off the waitlist, the SoN will reverse the general admission decision. Do not worry!
Re: the last possible day you can get into the SoN, last year I moved from #9 to #1 during the summer, and they told me the last possible day I could get into the program would be the day before Sept orientation. They asked me to be fully compliant -- complete all the compliance training, immunizations, etc -- so that if someone dropped out, I'd be ready to go. Which I did. And then the day before orientation, they said, "Sorry, it's not going to work out".
Just hang in there! You never know!
