I screwed up big time...

Applying to College
1

<p>I'm a senior in highschool and I've sent out applications to UCI, UCLA, CSLB, SDS for the nursing department. What I didnt know was that I had to send in a supplement application along with the UC/CS applications.
I missed the deadline for the UCI nursing applications by 1 day...I mailed the UCLA application and they recieved it. I'm having trouble with the CSLB application and the deadline for the SDS application has passed...The CSLB nursing application is due Feb. 15 so I have 5 days to fill it out.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>The application for CSLB requires that I have taken the prerequisite courses before applying, and I'm still in highschool so I havent taken any of them. What can I do? Am I even applying for the right thing?</p></li>
<li><p>If I didn't send in an application for the nursing schools, does that ruin my chances of getting into the college at all?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>My school counselor did not mention any of this to me, nor tried to help me. She just blamed me for not having it in...I dont have any family members who have gone to college, and my parents have only been to high school so they couldnt help me...I'm really confused and worried right now...Can anyone help me?</p>

<p>YOU are responsible for knowing what you need and when you need it
…and where to turn the apps in etc…</p>

<p>It is NOT your counselor’s responsibility to tell you what to do and when–
YOU need to be keeping tabs on this–it is your future.</p>

<p>yes i know that, and thats why i’m trying to get some answers</p>

<p>okay I know it’s my fault. I just need to know if this will effect whether or not I will get accepted into these colleges</p>

<li><p>The CSULB nursing program, from what I can tell, is something you apply to after you are already admitted, enrolled, and have finished the prerequisites. So there is no “right thing” to apply for; you just apply to the main campus, which you already have.</p></li>
<li><p>Not sending in a nursing school application won’t jeopardize your chances of getting into the college; why would it? Obviously you won’t be accepted to nursing schools you didn’t submit applications for, but you knew that I assume.</p></li>
