whoaaa...really surprised nobody has commented on today's e-mail, seeing as this thread was very active not too long ago.

anyway, looks like some action is starting to ramp up this week with people on the high waitlist getting offers very soon. what I got from the e-mail was that this will be a continuous cycle once every two weeks until they're "full" again or crunch time is upon them in August, where offers will be more frequent.

What is this email you speak of??? I don't know about all you guys/gals that are on waiting list....it's torture in my opinion. But glad to hear that some action is taking place again tho!!

Late May is going to be an exciting month for all of us!

Here are those e-mails:

Dear Waitlist Candidate –
I realize how anxious you are to find out what your chances are of being offered a seat this fall.

We will be pulling from the waitlist more regularly beginning the middle of this week, at which time we will begin with those placed on the high wait list. If you received a letter about two weeks ago which included “high” waitlist, you will be pulled first, as seats become available. Students who were placed on the high wait list have been sent advanced notice they are most likely going to be offered a seat Fall 2012.

The candidates receiving this email are candidates who have been placed in ranking order according to the post-interview assessment our Committee chose – the same assessment used for selection of the high waitlist candidates.

When the high wait list candidate is offered a seat, they have two weeks to “confirm” the enrollment. If they do not confirm, their seat is offered to the next candidate on the waitlist. This process will be used throughout the cycle and as I explained at the interview Q & A session, we offer seats from the wait list up to and including the first three days of class.

This may not make much sense to you, but this is traditionally how admission cycles run for all pharmacy colleges.

I wish you the best and if I feel you are moving closer to being accepted from the wait list, I will try to give you advanced notice. It would be best to be ready, no matter what position you hold, since as we get closer to the start of Fall Semester, candidates pulled from the wait list will have less and less time to confirm – 2 weeks, then 1 week, then 3 days, and then the same day you are called off the waitlist, when school begins. Make sure you have your finances in order and follow the immunizations instructions sent you from our Registrar, Lisa Erck.

Wishing you the very best!

Dear PharmCas Waitlist Candidates,
This email is for all applicants who interviewed and have been placed on the California Northstate University - College of Pharmacy Waitlist. The Admissions Department will continue to pull students from the waitlist until all spaces have been filled. This will continue up until the start of the 2012 Fall Semester.

You do not need to set up an Immunization Tracker Account at this time. I do recommend that you begin collecting copies of your records to have on hand, so that if you are contacted by the Admissions Department and offered a seat in the Class of 2016, you will be prepared on short notice to meet the requirements.

Accepted students are asked to complete the following immunizations and set up an immunization tracker account as part of their admission to the school:
Immunization Tracker Requirements
Hepatitis B Surface Antibody Titer
-There must be documentation of a positive titer. If the series is in process attach the records until it is complete and a titer can be drawn.

Varicella (Chicken Pox)
-There must be documentation of one of the following:
· 2 vaccination dates
· Positive titer results showing immunity

Measles (Rubeola)
-There must be documentation of one of the following:
· 2 vaccination dates
· Positive titer results showing immunity

Mumps
-There must be documentation of one of the following:
· 2 vaccination dates
· Positive titer results showing immunity

Rubella
-There must be documentation of one of the following:
· 1 vaccination date
· Positive titer results showing immunity

Tetanus/Diphtheria (Td)
-Documentation of a booster within the last 10 years.

(2)TB Skin Tests/CXR
-2 TB Skin tests (at least 7 days apart) are required to be completed between July 1, 2012 & July 31, 2012 (tests completed outside this date range will not be accepted). If the results are positive, a chest x-ray is required to be completed during the same time frame.

Please contact me if you have questions regarding immunizations. Be sure to include WAIT LIST in the subject line in your emails. If you feel you have received this email in error please contact me immediately.

lol there's nothing new to say. We're (the regular waitlisters) still on the wait list. Apparently all the high wait list emails were sent out about two weeks ago.

OOOYYYYY! I just saw the thread dedicated to this incident too. WOW...I may just go 100% with the school I already deposited with

 

[desertraichu]

In all fairness, the lawsuit thread and this are two different things. And it's very normal for an evaluation to note things to be improved at any visit, so, it's not very fair to indicate this document as a reason that the school is unbalanced.

I also wanted to add that if you check lakeboy's account, all he has posted is related to cncp. He cares so much to post it everywhere. I am not sure what he is trying to do really.

 

[RPhbound]

i know ........it seems that there are some people trying to be against the school. it is a new school and it has to go through all of the protocols to obtain accrediation. there are schools that have been accredited for years and have been on academic probation because their students cant pass their boards. northstate is not a school for everybody....so those that choose to go here more power to you and those that dont the feelings are all the same. at the end of the day the purpose is to obtain a pharmD despite which school you came from......so a genuine goodluck to everybody everywhere choosing this career profession

who knows? maybe lakeboy is using scare tactics so that people on SDN would decide otherwise from CNCP, so s/he has a better shot of getting in.

same with the other thread. maybe pharmnerd2012 is someone like lakeboy, trying to get everyone scared before August approaches. it's always fishy when posters have the current month join date and one SPECTACULAR post, never to post anywhere again.

I am a long time lurker of SDN and never really wanted to post anything to begin with. But I really needed some advice so I figured I would ask for it. If you look at the lawsuit thread I asked for advice, which no one ever bothered to give. They only commented on the lawsuit. So what would the point be in posting to the thread again?

Honestly I wish I didn't have to make the decision of committing all of this money to the school when they have those allegations to answer. But I don't have much of a choice since this is the only school I didn't get wait-listed for. I am very concerned that I am going to get 100k in loans and pay that to a program that could face sanctions, and I will end up screwed. I really don't know what I could or would do if that happened.

Er, don't mean to play devil's advocate or anything, but both lakeboy and pharmernerd2012 are accepted to pharmacy school already. With that said, I strongly believe that pharmernerd2012 has a genuine concern, as I was once in his/her position before.

On a related note, I don't think people posting those necessarily have "intentions." I think most people just genuinely want to have discussion and get feedback from others.

I did get it yesterday, and yes I am on the regular waitlist. Well, you never know. I guess I should really start looking into financial options. Anyone got an idea of how many candidates they place on the hi WL?

and what would the monthly payment be after graduation??

anyone knows??

Lol no it's cuz I've been on the regular waitlist and wasn't sure if I was moved up or not cuz that email kind of confused me.

 

[definit02]

I read somewhere on here that someone did the sallie Mae and is paying like $25 monthly or something. Not sure bout the total debt after 4 years... I really gotta do my homework

 

[prettycat]

thanks definit02,

ya, its important to know what will the total payment be....the monthly parments and stuff....how much will a pharD make...how much will it go for taxes...how much for the loan...and how much left??? alotta calculations and stuff....if i get in, i'll calculate all that stuff......loool, i havent look at anything yet paying student loan is not easy:-(
im assuming 250 a month for every 50k ....(but thats for government loan) not sure about the private loan....for example: this school is 45 k tution:
assuming
4*45=180 four years
180/5=3.5
3.5*250$= 875$ around $1000 for the loan or maybe more 1500
i dont get the calpharm.org thing...will it change tocalpharm .edu if the school becomes accred? what does a for profit organization mean???

 

[prepharmsocal]

When I did my loan calculations this is the info I figured out. I took out the full cost of attendance which is like 67.5k- this is for the tuition (46k) and for living and other necessities. This is the max amount the school would let me take out. Multiply that by 4, and when you graduate you are looking at being 270k in debt. I did the $25 month with sallie Mae. They then told be that I would be paying about 2k a month once I graduate. And starting salary or pharm d is 100k. So basically we are taking out a LOT of money and once we graduate have to pay a lot back monthly. But what other choice do we have?

 

[prettycat]

thanks prepharmsocal,

thats very accurate......true, no other choice....
100,000/12=8.3
8300-2500(tax)=5800
5800-2000(loan)=3800
still not bad

I was approved for sallie mae. Although I did have a co-signer (my mom), she does not have a lot of income but her credit score is good. My interest rate came out to 8.25% however it will go down to 8.00% once I choose to set up an automatic monthly debit payment.
Note* I had zero income so I am sure anyone can get approved. I recommend doing it now. You dont have to commit to the loan until you sign the promissory note.

I recommend the 25 dollar fixed monthly payment plan rather than deferred because the interest rate is lower. 25 dollar a month isn't bad. If you can afford the interest monthly payment option, that one is even better but it is really expensive considering it would be like paying 100-200 each month.

Also- I only borrowed the amount for tuition and will be paying everything else by myself. Things like orientation fee, student activities fee, etc. Since we pay 6,500 up front, 41300-6500=34,800 is all I need from the loan.

 

[prettycat]

thank you so much twentytwelve2

very informative

 

[Riddle]

Has anyone done the SallieMae Tuition Pay Plan-Automatic Payment? When I called them they told me to call back June 1 since they have not set up a plan yet with CNU.

 

[confettiflyer]

As an FYI, for those students who wish to decline their seat at CNCP and have already paid their "seat commitment fee", under California Education Code Section 94920b, you have a right to a refund of your full $5,000 deposit less $250.

Please do not let this deposit amount dissuade you from accepting another admissions offer should it arrive.
