@NoleMom22, I think your DD has good chances too. Were any of her ECās or Volunteer experience centered around nursing or working in a hospital? That tends to help with solidifying the interest in an admissions personās review from what Iāve been told. Especially in a limited access major like Nursing.

Comments:
Essay: I wrote about a humbling experience I had during the holidays a few years ago when I chose an Angel from an Angel tree at Panera Bread and he asked for a backpack, āif possible.ā I wrote about my family background and how it affected me as a person and who I became, what I strive to become because of it, etc.
Dad has an Associates degree and a Bachelorās degree
Mom did not attend college
I qualify for Bright Futures FAS
I also donāt have many volunteer hours from my freshman and sophomore years because my school lost them, and foolishly, I did not think to keep a record of them for myself.
WOW @shanneken !!! Very impressive, young lady. You should be just fine. My daughter was going to apply to Notre Dame and Vanderbilt as well, but once she qualified for Bright Futures FAS we decided she wasnāt leaving the state. Good luck with all of your applications, keep us posted !
