ADN applicants will be notified of their admission status in April.
Letters of acceptance will be sent to the applicants who ranked highest.
Those
next in ranking will be placed on the alternate list, and will receive
a letter explaining this. Letters of nonacceptance will be sent to those
who will not be placed in the class this year. Students accepted into
the nursing program must return an Intent to Enroll form to maintain
a
place in the class. As space becomes available, students on the alternate
list may receive an acceptance letter. Applicants who are not placed
in
the class will have to reapply the following year. No waiting list will
be kept.
