I took and passed both C-NET and TEAS tests to get into the Adult Learning Mid Manhattan LPN program in NY. I had my interview last week (think I sucked on my essay eventhough I do well with those just my nerves) and now I have to wait until I get the letter of acceptance! The problem is that I have to wait all the way till June-July! Gosh this is driving me crazy. I have everything riding on this. They say dont put all your eggs in one basket..well I did!
I spoke to someone there and the issues is the number of teachers this year, as well as the space because they are closing the Goldwater school on Roosevelt Island. Only two sites left which is the Brooklyn and Manhattan one. Also, they are only accepting 120 students.
I have faith and believe God has a plan for me but Lord the wait is a killer!
I feel in my heart I will get in but with so many essays to read and limited space, I may just get lost in the long process. I have the money that I saved up to pay it in full first day. I have books that im ready to buy to study before school starts just to give myself a head start. Ready to map my schedule for studying time for the whole program. I even have a friend that has her BSN to help me study.
I'm set!!! JUST NEED THAT LETTER!
Its like when you dont have money you see everthing you want in the store but when you do have it theres nothing to spend it on. Then again thats not a good metaphor.
Who else is waiting for a letter? Anyone else think about this every second besides me?
Oh this is my first topic on allnurses so hello all! : )
I don't worry about an essey.Don't think it playes any significant role in the process.Seems it is just a good tradition to write an essey "Why do you want to be a nurse"
The essay is a writing sample. I'm pretty sure they will send the letter sometime before mid July. They are very busy. The 2012 cohort is graduating. The interviews should be winding down for those in the prep class. I'm only assuming. We were encouraged to bring our documents in quickly. I'm sure it will be ok. So do you guys have a plan B?
Cindy me too. But the wait has me so leery. I have to look into other schools. I know I would not stress as much. I really try to be positive but it took alot to get to this point. I planned this for a good while.

They had a prep class to take the cnet. Yes, they mentioned they are closing Goldwater and that they weren't sure where they would be relocated to.
