OMG

I GOT INTO THE COLLEGE OF NURSING!

Okay, here is the story of how I found out I was in the CON. It was quite the night!!

First, I was looking at my application online because my friend was worried about hers and how she thought she may have applied wrong. Eventually, I wondered why no one has looked at my application and why it said "documentation needed," so I posted yet ANOTHER message on this little message board that is on my application. I got a reply immediately with this long statement about the qualifications to getting into the program and as it turns out---I APPLIED AS THE WRONG STUDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I applied as a "First time in college student," which has the code BSNFR (something) when I was supposed to be BSNUR--UPPER DIVISION!! OMFG. I was crying. I thought THIS IS IT..I BLEW IT. I was so afraid that if she switched me over it would be too late since the deadline passed!! I was BAWLING!! I e-mailed this woman about 5 times. It went on for like a half hour with me crying and flipping out.
THEN, the phone rings.
"Hi, this is __. Is this Nicole?"
"YESS, I am sorry, I am freaking out!"
"Um yes I see that since I have gotten like 5 emails within the past 5 minutes."
"I KNOW, I AM SORRY. I am not insane, but I am just really worried...AM I GOING TO BE OKAY? WILL I STILL BE CONSIDERED?!?!? *still crying like a moron*"

"ok, let me see here *typing* I am going to switch you over to Upper division...*typing* oh you already tried...I will delete that one.."

"AM I GOING TO BE OK? WILL IT STILL SAY I APPLIED MAY 12TH?!?! WILL I STILL BE CONSIDERED!?"

"Alright, I just erased the second one and saved the old one which says May 12th and upper division."

"ok, so I am going to be ok? *crying!!*"

Silence.

"Alright, You have been offered a seat into the college of nursing..."

"WHAT? ARE YOU SERIOUS???"

"YES"

"OH MY GOD.......OH MY GOD!"

"ARE YOU INTERESTED?!"


"YES!!!!

"Ok, you will get a letter in the mail in about a week........"

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

I went from hysterics over thinking my chances were over to immediate acceptance. When she said, "Are you interested?" I was like OMFG. Seriously, my boyfriend said the expression on my face was priceless.

WOW!! A HUGE congrats to you.
This is so ironic....I just got accepted into the nursing program too and I got a call on the 19th!!! of June and was asked if I was interested. My response was much like yours, "Are you kidding"?

I had orientation yesteday, we were fitted for uniforms and signed all of our paperwork for background checks and were given our lab slips for our drug screens. I was there 3 hours and by the time I left I was already registered for classes and have my class schedule.
We start on August 24th. When do you start??
