a504n said:Woohoo! I just got my acceptance letter today! I had to work this morning, and I was calling home all day asking if the mail man came yet. He usually comes around 12pm, but today he was late. Anyways, I left work early, got home at 3:20 pm, and the mail man just reached my mail box when I pulled into the drive way. I looked through my mirror to see if he put an 8"x11" envelope in, and he did. I ran to the mail box, saw it was from Xavier, and I dropped everything on the ground and opened it. Once I saw "Congratulations! ", I became the happiest woman on this earth!
Did anyone else get their letters from Xavier yet? Good luck, and I hope you guys get accepted!
Caliyaddamean said:Congrats!!!! 👍
Hopefully I will receive my letter of acceptance or rejection today!!!!
Congrats This is my last hope. I hope to receive letter acceptance soon. I am so depress. 😕a504n said:I hope you get your letter of ACCEPTANCE today. Are you from New Orleans?

a504n said:Hey, thanks!
My stats really weren't that great... I had a 3.0 for my overall gpa and pre-pharm. Yes, I did hear they accept their own students first, however I am not a Xavier student, nor did I ever attend Xavier previously. I attended UNO ( University of New Orleans). Xavier accepts 180 students each year from what I heard. My friend told me that they were going to start accepting more non-Xavier students, so you do have hope. Plus, Xavier was just recently given a $100,000,000 grant to expand their College of Pharmacy, so they can accept more students. Honestly... what I think got me accepted was God. I literally prayed every single night for the past six months, hoping I would get accepted to Xavier, since it was the only school I applied to.
One more thing, Xavier said GPA is not the number one factor for determining if you get accepted or not. They said the number one factor was your three letter of recommendations, second was your statement of interest, you have to sell yourself in your statement of interest since there are no personal interviews and lastly, is your GPA. I hope this information helps. If you have additional questions, feel free to PM if you'd like. Good luck!

On a side note, I might not be able to keep my seat for pharmacy school...
I spoke to Xavier today about my missing Theology class. They told me if I don't complete it by Aug. 18, I will not be able to enroll in their pharmacy school; I would have to apply again next year. 🙁
No other schools in New Orleans is offering summer semester due to hurricane Katrina. They are now in their "Spring '06" semester for this summer, which started over a month ago. So I am late! I applied to the University of St. Thomas in Houston, TX today. They only have 14 seats left open for their Theology class. I'm scared by the time I get to register, it will be closed.![]()
LSUXaVier said:Hey, I had the same dilemma, same problem, that damn theology class. That Class is causing me to go back and forth from Gonzales to UNO and Then to LSU. I have to Leave UNO and 11:20 to get to the class@12:40. A hectic summer ahead of me, if I get accepted.
a504n said:I hope you do get accepted, you deserve it! Your summers sounds very hectic. Maybe the mail in slow in your area? That's why you didn't receive your letter yet. I'm still a nervous wreck, because my seat in pharmacy school is not 100% official until I complete my Theology class. That's if I even get into UST's theology class. I have to spend $2,000 for that one Theology class at UST. There goes $2,000 out of my bank account. Plus, I have to quit my job now, since I will move to Houston for this whole summer.
Good luck! Keep me updated.
a504n said:Hey, may I ask you a few questions? LSU offers theology? Is it too late to register for the summer semester for theology? When does/did the summer semester begin? Maybe I can just go to LSU and drive back and forth everyday from Baton Rouge to New Orleans.
LSUXaVier said:Check into online colleges, it would have been my second option, either phoenix or Liberty. I think Liberty's deadline for this religion class is sometime this week, but I hadn't checked University of Phoenix yet.
a504n said:Thanks for the info. I asked Xavier about online courses, and they said they do not accept any online courses at all. I have to take it on campus. I think I might just stick to going to UST, since I doubt I'll be able to make it for LSU, and missing a week of school might hurt me.
LSUXaVier said:I haven't gotten my letter Either, I'm trying to be patience about it, but it's not working, and I still have pre-req's to take. I Just dished out the Tution at UNO for the MEdical ethic class and 2 others, and today was the last day to pay tuition(purge) and last day that you would get 100% refund. So I'll lose about $800 buck if I don't get accepted. I took the chance and I paid it. I just don't know, I was pretty confident at one point, but my confidence has diminished a lot. What do you think My chances are. I have like a 3.4 pharmacy pre-req. A 3.0 overall with about 130 hours. I've had a couple of major changes. Mainly different science major. I think I went wrong when, all 3 of my Letters OF Recommendation were from Pharmacist. I am a licensed Technician. Been working for Wal-mart for two years. I did mention it in my Personal Statement about what a great joy it was to help these people and how i've developed a great love for it. I expected to get some sort of acceptance or denial letter Today, I'm right there in Gonzales, La. And I talked to a girl that got hers in Atlanta. So that makes me nervous.
Caliyaddamean said:Im in the same boat-I live in LA and I didnt receive my letter but there is good news. Student Affairs at Xavier called me this morning and told me that another batch of letters would be sent out today- so keep your fingers crossed.
a504n said:That's awesome news! If they called you, you must have gotten accepted, right? At least I hope you did. Good Luck!
tlnbtb said:So did she tell you if they are both acceptance and rejection letters or they are sending out acceptance letters first.
I did call them today, they said that all letters were mailing out yesterday. Good luck to allCaliyaddamean said:She wouldnt say when I asked her-she said they were sending out another batch of letters .
