I sent them an email last September 20 and I didn't get any reply. I'm from Philippines. I'm hoping I could join the January or February intake.

Hi fayee. Did you already follow-up your application? I also applied to ETEA last July, got interviewed and already paid the tuition fee but until now I dont have the letter of offer yet. I called them few days ago and the lady told me that it has been almost 3 months since they are not releasing offer letters. Im also hoping I could join the January intake because my LOE will expire this April.

i received a call from them a week after i submitted my application then we proceeded to the interview, still over the phone. they will tell you right away if you passed. after few days, i received the letter of offer. regarding the immunizations, you have to finish everything before the class starts.

Hi annie! When did you submit your application to ETEA? Did you pay your tuition first before they gave you the letter of offer? Thanks in advance. :)

Thank you so much Mylo_b! I was actually thinking if I had to do a very thorough review...nonetheless I think I'm still gonna have to study a lot just to satisfy my OCD tendencies... Good luck with your BP and subsequent job hunting!

Thanks! :)

I've sent them several emails asking for update but they are not replying. I will call them tom. :)

You paid the tuition fee but you still dont have the letter of offer yet? Give them a ring. :)

Hello possible classmate!! :) As posted by Shaneyney, AAON's interview for Feb intake will not be conducted until around November. Can I ask why ETEA is your second option? Have you tried IHNA?

Hi inchick! Sorry for the super late reply. :) I didn't see your post. Anyway, I tried the online test in IHNA. I also considered etea because they have intakes every month I think. Still no updates from aaon too?

Dear aila61,

I'm also waiting for my enrollment approval from my BP provider but I also have a problem about my PPD test. I'm tested positive but my xray is normal. What did you do in your case? did they consider your positive PPD result? looking forward to hear from you.thanks

@ BLAISEY

if you positive for the PPD just have the orig copy of your xray and a certified true copy to show the BP provider that your Normal..

I submitted my application to etea last week of june, i guess, i forgot the exact date. Had my interview last july 10, letter of offer was dated july 11 and yet i received it july 16.. Since it was sent to my agent first and only forwarded to me. I paid the tuition afterwards. :)

Is it the xray plate or the results?

Hi! May I know what is the required work experience to be eligible for registration in AHPRA? and what is the acceptable work gap? I am planning to submit my documents for AHPRA Assessment but it costs a lot. I am not sure if I have a chance of being accepted because my 2 year hospital experience was on 2007-2009, and that is 3 years ago. Thank you in advance for your reply.
