    I am applying for a Summer 2013 start (18 month program). I attended an info. session and I thought they specifically said no interviews. The application packet, however, states that an interview is strongly recommended. I am curious if any of you had an interview. Thanks!

  4. Hi I am applying to that program too! I had an interview. They say it's optional and doesn't count towards admissions decision but I figured it couldn't hurt - it was a good way to ask some questions and get more of a feel for the school.

    If you can interview, interview. It can only
    help.
  6. I am also applying for the Simmons ABSN program and I had a phone interview recently and plan to attend the info session for Dix Scholars in November. The phone interview was super laid back and basically just a great way to ask some more questions about the program. Good luck!
  7. Thanks everyone! I did already have a phone interview. I will follow up with my admission counselor to see if I should also schedule an in-person.
  8. They confirmed with me yesterday that they have all of my application materials and my app is "under review." Eee! So nervous!

    Good luck! I am hoping to submit everything by Dec. 1st. My laptop just died and thankfully, I had backed up everything just before it happened. I would have freaked if I needed to recreate everything.

    Did you have a preliminary TCE?
