Anyone hear from UAB yet? Also...

I went ahead and called UAB today to find out why I had not received an invite to interview....they had me down for the Huntsville applicant pool for which they hadn't sent out invites yet. I had them place me on the Birmingham pool along with the Huntsville pool (since I live exactly in between the two cities) and she informed me that I would get a letter in late December. She told me that including myself that there were 14 applicants in the Huntsville pool that qualified for the interview, 7 of which will be accepted.

Hopefully having a 50% chance out of such a small group is a good thing.

I have an interview @ UAB Monday. Anyone else? Anyone interview on Friday? I'm scared to death!:uhoh21:

I interviewed on Friday. Like any other interview, you should be well prepared. I hate to give advice because I won't know if what I did was effective until I have a slot. I had 5 separate interviews over 2 hours. Most of the interviewers were very comforting and friendly. Best of luck and let us know how it went!

I have heard that like the other in-state school there are really not many, if any, clinical questions. If that is the case, I am REALLY looking forward to my interview.

Did you interview in Birmingham?

da-redhead · Jan 23, 2006

Yes, I interview in Birmingham this afternoon. I hope it stops raining:rolleyes: . When is your interview? Do you live in the Birmingham area?

Phishininau · Jan 23, 2006

No, I live in the Auburn area. I interview this Thursday. Are you in Birmingham? Which clinical site are you interviewing for?

badgernurse · Jan 23, 2006

I don't think I had any clinical questions. Mostly, why CRNA, why UAB, etc. Did you get accepted to Samford? Which clinical site are you interviewing for?

da-redhead · Jan 24, 2006

Sorry, your question was to badgernurse and I replied. I interviewed today for the "central component" as they called it. I assume my clinicals will be in Birmingham, which is where I live. Good luck Thursday.

Thanks for the good luck wishes. I really hope it works out, the program at UAB is much more economical that my other option. Hopefully we will get to know each other in class next year.

The interviews for UAB are wrapping up tomorrow.

How have the interviews gone for you all this week?

The best of luck to all of you.
