Congratulations lilywhite!!!! I know you are super excited! And yes, now some lucky applicant will take your spot for the Spring. It's great that you were able to receive a spot already for the Fall just as you preferred.

I can't wait to receive that packet in the mail. That is when it will finally sink in that i've actually been accepted.


Once again, congrats!!!

The interviewer asked me the following questions: Please tell me about you and your background. Why do you want to be a nurse? What is your definition of compassion? Give an example of how you showed compassion to a patient. How many times did you take A & P II? (Also some others but I'm drawing a blank right now). I would recommend that your dress code be business (when you mean business you dress for business!).
Those are the same quetsions I was asked and the critical thinking too! She did asked if i had any medical experience( i had jx gotten my CNA card). And u'll be asked to discuss hw u can manage the semester work load.

Wow, getting admitted 2 weeks before the start of class is cutting it close, but at least you have handled just about everything needed. That guaranteed you that spot for the Fall! I'm sure you will be just fine.

Yes, it is overwhelming and now I have to begin everything as well, but I am just as grateful. Good luck on finishing everything up and getting ready to start in two weeks! Please keep us posted on how the program goes and what to expect.
