Clayton State Acceptance Fall 2009

I'm going to an interview this week... Any advice? Wish me luck, and good luck to anyone else going!

Hey, Clayton State is totally my first choice! This is my second degree, so I like the price and also the accessibility of a smaller campus (I did my other degree at UGA). The interview was nothing too complicated. I think they have a set of questions they are required to read off. It was just me and one faculty member, which was nice. Overall, I think they are looking to assess how realistic your expectations and understandings are of the nursing profession, nursing school, and yourself. The underlying question seemed to be: Do you have what it takes to handle it, and will you make it as a nursing student and ultimately as a nurse? Don't be nervous because it seems around 300 people apply, 100 get an interview, and 50 get accepted, so really you have 50/50 chance of getting in! I hope this helps. Good luck!

Hey! I just opened my acceptance letter! Will I be seeing anyone else there in the fall or this summer? I'm so excited!

Hey, me too, since I'm transferring! Are you going to orientation April 25th? I'm going to have to commute until mid-July, since my husband wants to spend most of his last free summer in Athens. He starts his doctoral internship in September. Do you want to get together and study sometime?

Oh, cool, my mom lives in Alpharetta, near Milton High School. So is your baby about 2 weeks old?? I know that it must be difficult to go to class with a little one at home. I have a 19-month-old, and he will be 2 by the time I start in the Fall. I am really sad about daycare, but I'm hoping he'll enjoy the activities. Once we move to Stockbridge in July, my commute shouldn't be too bad. I know if I got pregnant again, I would have to take a semester or two off after the birth.
