I just received two rejection letters from the university I applied to!

But it was for the two regular nursing programs.

I am still pending on the post grad accelerated programs. In an upside down way, I hope that means I qualify for their post grad programs!

Now I am nervous!! It's so complicated here in Britain! I have US qualifications, but I dont know how they translate into english ones! LOL! (pardon the pun!) I really want to go to this school! It has got to be one of the best in Britain! It's old. REALLY old! And it's got the most awesome of reputations! It will absolutely break my heart if I dont get to go! :-1

Oh please cross your fingers for me! I could use a bit of extra luck now!

Good luck and best wishes!!! :-6

I've got EVERYTHING crossed and I wish you well as always. :-4

Do you know why you were rejected ???

No. But since I couldnt find anyone who could guide me as to wich program to apply to, I applied to 4. Two pediatric and two adult. The ones I got rejected for were the basic programs in peds and adults. The two that are still pending are the accelerated peds and adults for post grads. I am just hoping that means that I qualify with my current college diploma and credentials. If not, I have another big fat rejection coming my way!:(

Good luck - i hope it works out for you.

Crossed fingers and good luck, Raven, you deserve to be successful :-6

Hiya Raven

Best of luck to you -- Buster is crossing his paws for you, too! :-6

Oh thanks you guys! It's St. Bartholomews school of nursing I have applied to. Since I'm here, may as well get my english qualifications, yeah? But since I am already a Respiratory therapist, I thought getting a placement in London chest would be fantastic! Gosh I hope this works out!

Fingers crossed and best of luck, Raven...you deserve to be successful :-6

Don't you worry it will work out for you, gotta have faith!! :-6

Funny enough, I thought the rejections would be for the other two. The post grad ones. I tell you, vogons are a mystery! I just saw the fine print! I am competing for 36 places for adults, and just 6 places for pediatrics! GOSH!! :-3

I have everything crossed for you :-6



(do you realise how difficult it is to type with crossed fingers? And don't get me started on the crossed legs and walking down the stairs! )



Best wishes and hope coming your way babes! :-4
Oh I want to go there soooooooooo BADLY!! I have talked to the head of the post grad pediatric program on the phone. Oh I hope it was enough!!!

OK, you've found out that you are over-qualified for the lesser posts. That just suggests that you're suited for the higher posts Bart's is a great choice and I have every confidence you'll get the post you want - luck should not come into it but I'm sending it anyway. Keep us informed, we're all on tenterhooks now

Hoping things turn out JUST the way you're wishing they will!

guppy's fins are crossed. good luck and best wishes....hope you get in raven.......:-6

Thats what I am hoping it means! It is such a cool place! And the education I would receive there would be FABULOUS!

Raven I am probably one of the most UNlucky people you will ever meet, so I hope to God this doesn't backfire, but any I do have, I am sending your way.

Thanks BR! LOL! I have a feeling your luck is about to change! After all, it cant rain forever!:-6

GOOD LUCK! GOOD LUCK! GOOD LUCK! It's gonna be alright.

Best of luck to you. I know you'll do fine. I'm not real informed in nursing schools, but what are you goinf for? An RN or specialized nursing of some kind? Here in the states what is real popular and lacking in personnel is Nuclear Medicine and Radiation Therapy. You can just about name your own price in those specialities. Everything is crossed for you. (I tried crossing my eyes but I had too many typos!)

What a tenterhook, Bryn? I try my best to learn all the words you guys use. Thanks!

Best of luck to you, Raven. They will surely want you in the hgiher level programs there, with your qualifications!:)

Thinking good thoughts for you!

Being on tenterhook, is basically being anxious about something.

Thanks Chris - I took a bit of a timeout there.

No problem.

Ill cross my fingers but if I have to write or something Ill need to uncross them.

Will this affect your mojo ?

So I'll simply wish you the best for your application, I hope it works out. Barts must be a teaching hospital. Is it affiliated with the University of London?
