Yep! But I think that was always the case, at least that was my understanding.. But yes, the 17th. However, I didn't ask her how soon we would be notified.. of if we are not notified, do we just assume?
Yeah I was trying to reach her by email and phone to ask about it and how orientation for all of us would work. Cause one thing when I scheduled a meeting with her, she told me “even though classes in the fall are online, some of the programs that you are interested in may require you to be near campus still. We have contracts with multiple apartments in walking distance.” My thing is I’m from Alabama, and so I was curious about when we need to move or something.Yep! But I think that was always the case, at least that was my understanding.. But yes, the 17th. However, I didn't ask her how soon we would be notified.. of if we are not notified, do we just assume?
In my experience, she's not good with emails.. I reached her around 11am to her office number. I don't think they're being very considerate with out-of-state applicants but they haven't been very helpful in general. I would definitely try calling back. Last Friday I called 4 separate times before I got through to her
Thank you for the update, but counting between two thread, there is about 11 people on waitlisted. Not sure if that is consider a lot, but a good amount since there is only 90 seats total available.
She confirmed to me that the program size is 80 students total. 90 student class size is most likely for other programs that are sharing the class. Classes offered are not limited to just the MBS program, its shared amongst other health divisions (PT, PA, AA, OT, OD, DO, etc). Also, there may be well over 11 waitlisted, I asked if she was able to disclose the number and she said, verbatim "We are not allowed to say the exact number but it is a decent sized pool"
Thank you, that's good to know.
lolYeah me too man, was so excited.Just got a letter from NSU, I thought it was my acceptance letter. But it's the same thing as the email I got about waitlisted.
The website has an apply link. You have to view on the computer to create an account. August 1st was the deadline for the fall. However based on what others say you can now apply for winter 2020. (Next Monday after the New Years)
Thank you! I have LOR from applying to dental school this year. Can I use them? So, when applying for the Winter, is there another link for Winter 2021? I just see Fall 2020, which I applied for.
They should open towards the end of month from what I heard. I believe they can work if your teacher still has them cause it makes you put in their contact info and they are sent a link and they fill it out on there. So maybe you can. I’m not sure about winter 2021 but maybe the fall you applied for is the same as winter 2020
No not yet. This is becoming a little frustrating honestly.
I know. Like honestly they need to have more than Nikki handling everything. I called her 30 times in last 4 days and sent 15 emails and I haven’t heard anything back. An earlier post said wait till today but I still haven’t heard anything. Like tell me if I got accepted off the waitlist or not that way I know what further steps to take or if I need to apply for the winter or whatever.
I spoke to her last week and she said if the waitlist candidates do not hear anything by tonight then it’s safe to say they weren’t accepted since all the seats are full. This program handled things in the worst way possible
I agree guess we will have to wait till tonight. It’s sad that classes start today and you don’t even know if you got in or not. Like from an academic stand point. They could cover a lot today in class and we’d be behind. Cause even if we got accepted, we would have to do orientation and pay for everything and then register. An earlier call with Nikki she told me when accepted you get assigned an advisor because some of the classes overlap with other programs like dental and medical but each school requires you to take other classes that are specific to the school. That being said there isn’t any telling of when accepted how long the process to actually starts
Yes exactly!!! I get that things are crazy because of Covid but man plan accordingly! There are a bunch of us out there waitlisted waiting to hear back and the longer we wait the more we fall behind in the application process for other programs.
Yeah for real. Also for those interested. There’s a 100% online program for MHA. It’s through CSU global. They start dates pretty much 3x a month. I looked into and met with some of the advisor through zoom. It’s a 1 year program and within the MHA you can specialize in other fields like Finance or Project Management. The next start date is Sept 7. If you do it you’ll finish up October 13-14 next year. Can be full time or part time. And some employers will even pay a little of tuition to. My employer offered me 15% if I chose that route. Total tuition is 18k. Compared to novas 33k. You’ll still be in the health field and in hospitals if you choose that route. Something to look into.
No update, but we all have been waiting this long, I guess one or two more days won't hurt at this point. I'm sure they are slam and behind because of COVID, also more applications than usual. I don't know, we will find out.
Nope
Nope, most likely for sure tomorrow. But there is also people that is on the waitlist that is not on SDN, so we will never know if they get accepted.
True but I assume people would get rejection letters or not
I'm sure we all will know by the end of the day tomorrow, if we are not lucky then I guess we all have to apply for winter.
Hey just joined this forum, I am also waitlisted and have not heard back. Hopefully we get some type of answer today. I would hate to miss more classes if accepted.
same here. no luck for me.
Same here didn’t get in
Same here, no luck. Seems like nobody on the waitlist got in so far.
My sister (dentist) and mentor (orthodontist) both are NSU alumni, I heard many good things about the school. I know that this might not have been a good experience for you, but things happen and hopefully you might change your mind on applying. I just finish my winter application and waiting for LOR and transcript to come in. Best of luck to everybody.
anyone heard from Nikki ?Don't you ever feel like you're not good enough for anything, that is the whole point of this program, its to redeem yourself.Hi guys also got waitlisted and rejected hoping to apply for winter but now I’m really scared I’m just not good enough
I'm reapplying for winter MBS, taking DAT again in 1 month and then apply for dental school at the same time, and pray.
Yeah. My main thing is I had an academic fall out back in my sophomore and junior year of college. I wanna take biochem and one Neuro class to finish up my minor and then take the mcat and apply for the MBS and while doing all that take the mcat and apply for medical school
Yes, most likely we all will get the same letter.
That sounds great, never give up.
I'm also signed up with USPS, but I haven't got any notification.
I applied for Fall in March got waitlisted in August then ultimately rejected soooo you could be waiting up until a week or so before class starts. Don’t trust any timeline they give you; it will most likely change constantly depending on your application. Some people heard back within a week then a good bit of people like myself waited months and months
I guess this can go both way, either you get accepted/rejected early. Or if you don't hear anything for a while, most likely you will be waitlisted. At least that is my understanding at this point. But we all should have plan A-Z, that's why I already apply for winter and planing on taking DAT again in 1 month and then apply for dental school at the same time. Again, I always tell people never give up. Most successful people failed many times in their life, nothing great come easy.
So you haven't receive an email yet?
nope. no emails.
Hmm no email but class is already 3 days in, not sure what's going on with your situation.
