Georgetown U. Accelerated BSN - Spring 2010

Yes, I received one as well. Im so nervous, yet there is so much time ahead before the interview! Oh, well gotta try my best to prepare!!

I got one too. This is turning out to be a very expensive interview. Wishing I had done it earlier.

Anyone else scheduled for Oct 3rd with me?

I'm finding it really hard to concentrate on my classes because I keep thinking about the interview.. haha

Allimar >>> I know! Its so hard to concentrate! My interview is Sept 22nd! So excited and nervous!

Georgetown is my first choice (I only applied to two schools) so I am crossing my fingers! In my email, it said that my interview will be with the BSN committee-- Does anyone else's say that also? I'm trying to figure out if our interviews will be with 3-4 faculty members or 1 on 1.. I'm not sure how nervous I will get if 4 people start asking me all sorts of questions.

Mine does not say "with the BSN committee".. it just confirms my date for the inteview session. Georgetown is also my 1st choice... luckily I got accepted to UD Mercy, so I have a backup if Georgetown does not work out.... makes me feel a little better, but Georgetown would be amazing!
Allimar - what was your other school you applied to? Also are you referring to the interview confirmation you received, or the invite? Just curious!

Allimar - Did you apply to the ABSN, or the Direct Entry?

Allimar87,
Are u in the Direct-Entry Family Nurse Practitioner Specialty? I applied for this program and I was only given the Sept. 17th date for interviews as well. I'm pretty sure thats because of our picked specialty

WLJ2009- Congrats on getting into UD Mercy! Did you have to interview for that school? I've never gone to an interview involving admissions, so I really don't know what to expect. I'm reading past forums and everyone is saying that "they weren't surprised, its what they expected it to be- just like the other nursing schools".. that really doesn't help me

--It was the confirmation email. The email confirmed my interview and gave me another itinerary. I'm sorry I never clarified which program I applied to! I applied to the ABSN Direct Entry to FNP. It said that my interview is with the BSN committee and the director of the FNP program. I knew I wanted to continue my education and become a FNP and Georgetown gives me the opportunity to do that! I couldn't pass it up.. plus some of my family lives in DC so I will have no problem adjusting to the city life (I come from a small town)

I also applied the UNC-Chapel Hill ABSN program. I'm from North Carolina so I wanted to apply to a school near home for back up. Chapel Hill has a weird application process. There are no interviews, just essays that you need to write that describe yourself. Based on that, you are either in/out and on the plus side, it only costs about $10,000 for the program. I will hear from Chapel Hill about the same time I hear from Georgetown.

My heart is set on Georgetown though Only 12 more days till my interview!

Someone else said they picked Sept 17 for the interview and they were given options. Do you think we will be interviewing with regular ABSN applicants? I'm curious if the Direct Entry folks are competing against each other or against the ABSN applicants for a spot.. Also, do you know if we don't get into the Direct Entry program, if we are still considered for the ABSN program? Sorry if I'm asking too many questions, I can never reach ***** ***** on the phone!
