What does it mean if you're an alternate applicant for nursing school?


I just received a notice from the nursing school i applied that i am considered an alternate. The school choose applicants based on points and i'm RIGHT in the middle - i'm applying for spring quarter (which i heard isn't that competitive) sooo what do you think my chances are?

they can't just tell me i'm on the wait list and think i'm not gonna get in, right? (or at least i hope) or maybe they can say i am on the waitlist and if people dont decline i might not get in :(

It could mean that they have more students than the program can hold right now. But you are on the list to be next if anyone drops out or changes majors.

You are on the waiting list, and should openings occur above you, you could be slected for the school
