I just want to make sure that we don't forget those that are either wait-listed or still waiting on a reply... :)

Specializes in Accepted...Master's Entry Program, 2008!.
mvanz9999,

I am guessing you are applying for UIC? I had my interview on the 30th of March. May 15th is so far away!!!!

What is your back up school?

DePaul.

I got into Depaul too. My top choice is UIC and the wait is killing me. We had 17 people interview for pediatrics and last year they took four. I am holding out on the almost 25% chance I have of getting accepted.

I'm going for Acute Care NP. I assume you had the same interview style that I did. Which was group interviews.

I sat in that room with 3 other candidates, answering the questions and listening to them answer those same questions. Based on that interview (which was really a re-hash of the personal statement), I cannot tell you who I would let in or not let in. All the other candidates seemed well-grounded, had good, solid, well-thought out answers, had good motivation, and seemed fully capable of doing well in school.

How this is supposed to help narrow down who gets in, I have no idea. Based on the 4 of us in that room, I couldn't pick just one.

Yeah, the waiting stinks. But at least we DO have a backup (but at those prices, I may not go after all. LOL!)

Ok, i haven't even got to apply yet, but I've never heard of the interviews to get in the program...Dee, maybe you know...I thought that like @ CCSN it's the waiting list and at the others like NSC and USN and those that it was just doing the prereq's. Is there something I need to prepare for? Yikes! Like on poster said that they had a interview in a certain field of Nursing, I haven't seen or heard anything about that. Thought that wasn't something we had to worry about til after we got out? Wow, got a lot to look into. *sigh*

We actually had individual interviews. The day started off with an overview of the GEP and PNP programs and then we broke off into individual programs. I definitely wouldn't want to be one of the people deciding who would be accepted. Best of luck on getting in! Only about a month and four days until we should know!

:nono: No bad thoughts!! Think positive. I was really excited to see that Momto2beauties got her letter from TCC around the 17th last year. Hopefully, we will get them around the same time this year. If so, I want both of us to be doing the :monkeydance: next week!! Good luck to you!
