It's not BAD news...
...but it's not really news at all. Or is it? You decide:

Dear NancyPants,
Thank you for applying to the The Big State College of Nursing.
We have finished processing your application. It is now complete
and ready for the review process.
In early to mid-March, admission decisions will be mailed for
Summer 2009 and Spring 2010 entry terms.
Pins and needles, people! Pins and needles!
It's time for Rudi's No-Fail Steely Dan Sigil (Thanks, Rudi!)
Update: My hor(ror)oscope. GA! :
The enterprising Aries Moon provokes us to take action, but starting
something new is not so easy today as impulsive Mars forms an annoying
quincunx with restrictive Saturn. We may feel as if every move we
attempt to make is blocked by unchangeable circumstances. Talking
about it won't help, for communicator Mercury semisquares obstinate
Pluto. Fortunately, the Moon's entry into stubborn Taurus at
10:32 pm EST gives us the determination we need.
You may be quite subdued now, even if you are still feeling hopeful
and enthusiastic. It's just that you might learn something that
makes you aware of how much additional time and money may be
required to complete a project. It may be impossible for you to
see an easy way through this reality check, but rest assured that
you are facing a temporary obstacle. Unfortunately, no amount of
hard work will resolve the problem today. The key to success will
be your dogged persistence.

a) you weren't rejected. In the words of Adam Sandler, "Right away Scott you've gotta be stoked because Cindy showed up" heh
b)you've got dogged persistence, so no problem!
1) Love the No-Fail Steely Dan Mandala!
2) Uhm...I've been less confused reading Clowncar's orbital mechanics posts. What is a quincunx and why do I feel like it's a part of a woman's anatomy that I really should know about to be a skilled lover but have yet to find in practical application?
THis is the wonder of computers. They can spit out status updates like that. That's all it is. Tis neither a yes nor a no.
Ditto what Irrelephant says about the horoscope (and presumably it applies to me as well and even then I don't get it!)
waiting just sucks. I always wish i could just go into a deep freeze until it's all over.
irrelephant, you don't know where the quincunx is???? For shame.
Congratulations on your hurry up and wait letter. Of course all of us reading know they would be fools to make you wait.
We now all will be waiting with baited breath,,, pass the worms!
Not so much news as a "We haven't fogotten you!". Which, I suppose, is in and of itself news. Hmm. Fingers are crossed!
I'm off to track down the wily quincunx. Bridget! C'mere!
Gordo, meno says I should be shamed for not knowing...if you find one, please let me know, and let me know if you had to use any special equipment--sextant, compass, binoculars, Honda Special Tool 5 or whatever. kthx!
I'm honored to see my little photoshop mashup elevated to a sigil. Maybe I'll try a Glyph of Warding tuned against Coyotes next.
We wait with worms (cheesy? gummi?) on our breath. There will be prayers said, candles lit, music listened to and a few silent glasses raised to your good health and good luck.

I thought Stucco sent you a rubber quincunx in that box-o-stuff.
No, Rudi, he sent me everything ELSE, though. I think that was a The Cone, Jr.
Come on, Pants, bust up with the good news! Honk your horn before I have to do it for you!
I heart Steely Dan! And please, give us updates, Ms. Pants!
