Waitlisted for Linfield Nursing

Published

Hey everyone,

I applied to Linfield's nursing program starting in spring of 2016. I didn't get a rejection letter, but didn't get an acceptance one either. The letter stated that I had been put on the waitlist. After contacting ---------- over at the admissions office, she let me know that I was #12 on the list. My question is whether anyone has ever been waitlisted, and if so, what was the outcome? I know each school is different due to capacity, but I was just trying to get a feeling for what to expect. I feel as though my number is a little out of reach, but you never know. Any feedback would be great! Good luck to everyone out there!!

Still eagerly waiting on this end! I did get an email from Linfield this week saying "We will begin working from the waitlist on Nov. 2nd and continue to work until Feb. 8th". I guess the email was sent to anyone in the top 10 spots on the waitlist. But it was nice to hear something finally! I really hope we hear sooner than later :-) I will post right away if I get "the call". Fingers are crossed and waiting for Monday! PS glad you are making the move to Portland! You're right- mind as well get a jump on it!

I also forgot to ask. Do you guys know if Linfield has a rolling waitlist? Or does it restart with every application cycle? I think in previous years they may have done this, but I'm not exactly sure anymore. I was reading some of the threads from 2010!

J-Shut- Forgot to reply about the rolling waitlist question. From what I've read they restart the waitlist with each new application cycle. I'm crossing my fingers for you! Hope you got that email tonight too!

AHHH man, I'm honestly happy for you guys! Natnat, its been a long time coming, eh?? You deserve this! SnowAngel, so do you! So if snowangel was number 5, then that means that I'm probably down to #7 on the list. Oh man, I'll be praying for an email. I didn't hear anything today unfortunately, but hopefully in the next few days I hear something. ANYTHING, lol. Congrats, you two. I'll keep you posted on what I hear, if anything.

Natnat, what were you on the waitlist? I know snowangel said she was 5. Just trying to get a better idea of where they are at on the list now.

I don't know my exact number on the waitlist except that I was in the top ten. I was going to ask my ranking if they called me but since they just sent an email I still don't know! Sorry :/ I know that's not a good answer right now !
