UBC Undergraduate nursing program 2008/2009

Hi Michelle,
Thanks for letting me know about switching the intake date, I am going to request a change.

In the letter that they emailed, it said that the deadline for acceptance was July 4th. After that , the offer would be passed on to someone else.

I am mailing in my letter today. I hope you hear back soon, good luck. I know how it feels to be on pins and needles. Good luck!

HI Michelle,

The last couple of years particularly 2006 and 2007, there were some people that were accepted in mid-July. I am sure that a few people will decline their offers especially if they got in somewhere else. I have no idea what the percentage of people who decline is. I would ask the nursing school about that.

In regards to my interview, I found that I spent the majority of time answering the question and then had probably about three or four minutes to just chat. The chatting was great I found because the interviewers were genuinely nice. One interviewer even talked to me about my travels and told me about an author that she really enjoyed reading. I found that all the interviewers were so nice, that I figured that anything I would say, they would say good job, thanks. So I didn't think to take much from it. I agonized over what I had said . I tried to think of my points and then say a coherent answer. Though sometimes it seemed that I answered rather quick, say three to four minutes and I would be asked if I wanted to add anything. That made me feel really nervous.

I wish you the best, I understand the feeling of waiting and agonizing. I hope you hear soon.

Hello Codeblue,

I am sorry to hear that you are on a wait list. Your stats were fantastic and I am surprised that you were not accepted in the first round. Were you able to get any feedback from them? Hopefully I will see you in September or January. Best of luck!

Congratulations on getting accepted Michelle! That is great news and probably a huge relief. See you in January!
