It is not too late to interview!!! They have plenty of interviews scheduled over the next few weeks. They have been working non stop to get everyone processed before March 1. For the interview you can expect them to ask you why nursing, why FNP etc. Do not stress all the admissions counselors are awesome, although I may be bias because I work there as a work study student :)

Hey cnp! Thank you for all your insight! Do you know if they are calling accepted students on March 1st? Or if they are mailing the letters before or after March 1st?

Is that for summer entry? I'm for the fall and when I called I thought they said they were going to send letters "towards" the beginning of March... Hope you're right though!

AlmondB, they asked you for updated transcripts? I haven't been contacted... That makes me kind of nervous! Did you have pre reqs in progress?

Yes, I sent transcripts before my final grades were submitted from Fall semester. If you're concerned, it probably wouldn't hurt to call and ask if your application is complete and up to date.

No problem...I remember being in your shoes this time last year. Accepted students are notified via phone call and follow up letter. From what I know/have heard there will be a high number of phone calls on March 1st with letters going out shortly after that.

Hi, I also have a question for the CNP:

How important is the interview? And what type of answers are they looking for?

Can you give us some insight on this topic. Thank you.

The interview is important but it is just one piece of the puzzle. I can't tell you how to answer....just be yourself and be honest. If you have made it this far in the process you will know in your gut how to answer. The interviewers aren't out to get you or anything so don't be nervous.

CNP, thanks for all of the insight!!!!! Did anyone else receive a request for their transcripts from fall semester?

The only reason that I know of would be if you had in progress pre-reqs in the fall and they wanted updated grades or if you are still getting your first Bachelors and they wanted to see how your academic performance was. If they didn't contact you don't worry about it....you could always call the office and double check but you should be fine.

Okay, I just got a little worried because I'm still in my first Bachelors but never received a request.

If it helps I was still in the process of my first BS when I applied/ was accepted and the only time they needed an updated transcript from me was after I graduated to show my final GPA and that the degree was conferred etc.

Thanks! That makes me feel better. I did send an email to ask if my application was complete to ease my anxiety, haha, but I feel better now.

Does anyone know if they only call if you are accepted? And Friday hopefully, right?
