Who all is waiting to apply/hear back for Fall 2012?

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Hi. Just wondering who all is applying and when? One program's deadline is April 16th and the other program's deadline is May 30th. I am so tired of waiting! I am impatient lol. I figured we could all anxiously wait together! I should know something from both by the end of July- which seems SOOOO far away!! At least I have a full summer semester schedule ahead of me and two busy little boys to keep me occupied. So, hopefully the wait won't be too bad!

Good luck, everyone!!

LOL my husband is looking for a massage chair for me:) well at least we will be able to type fast lol

Okay-- it's official. I HATE writing papers!! I use to love it, until I got a B. It was our first essay. I've made hundreds on all of the checkpoints. I've never made anything but A's on papers! :-( I didn't make my thesis statement clear enough. Writing in MLA is so new to me. I did make a high B but still, it's just discouraging. I think my problem is that I'm so OCD about it and I just screw myself over. Lol. But my research topic is pretty interesting.. Exercise and the cardiovascular system! So at least I'm getting to research and write about what I love-- cardio :-)

I empathize with you all because I, too, was once in your shoes. Feel lucky that you have made it this far and DO NOT GIVE UP. If this is your dream, you will find a way. The JC's I applied to typically had anywhere from 1,000 - 1,200 applicants for only 40 spots (I'm in the Sacramento area) so I knew my chances were horrible. I waited four, yes, FOUR YEARS to get in. It was all lottery back then and those that were accepted were notified fairly quickly after applying, via email. I think it is cruel to let the ones that are denied to wait the longest only to receive a rejection letter in the mail. I am now heading into my fourth semester of nursing school and am currently working as a nurse's aide at a hospital. I came to allnurses just as you all have done for support. It's nice to have that camaraderie. Just remember to never give up! It will happen eventually :)

Woah! 4 years! Oh man. My school doesn't send out emails. I wish they did. That would be amazing! I'm still *trying* to hold out for hope but we will see-- hopefully soon! Thanks for the encouragement!

Yeah my husband and I were talking about the differences with MLA and APA. My school is a hospital and only teaches medical programs and all the classes only use APA. I am getting use to it. But my husband only writes in MLA which I have not had to in a long time. I do hate writing papers also. I do love my A's and I get worried ever time if I forgot something. I am glad you got to do your paper on something you like. I did my first paper on PTSD because it had to be a topic we were not covering in the class. I am not sure what I am going to do my next paper on. I need to decide this week though. ^.^

Thank you:)

conditoinally admitted to 2 acclerated programs, wagner and fdu, conditons are my completing nutrtion and anatomy 2 for wager, for fdu anatomy 2 and stats-hopefully all will be done this summer. "Real" accepeted into nursing program at rutgers, it is the cheapest though it is the longest as it is not an accelerated program. I am happy thus far, to actually recieve an acceptence. However still have to take it one day at a time, stats is tricky and I know anatomy and phys 2 will not be easy, one day at a time one step at a time
