Let me know if/when you get called for an interview because you applied before me.

Still waiting but I will.

That would be my guess...I applied on the deadline date, whoops! Basically a last minute "oh my god i need to make this happen now" moment

Haha same here, when I called they told me not to worry about the deadline too much. i would say as long as your application is completed you should be fine. Good luck.

Either of you select to be considered for the ABPNN if not accepted to the masters? I've read in past years people hear about interviews in late november/early december...so fingers crossed that it's before the new year. I also applied to Ohio State's accelerated master's for non-nurses. How about you guys?

I did. I only applied to this program so fingers crossed, and good luck to you.

I feel the same way & I know what speciality I want to pursue. However, I don't have any nursing experience and I have been told that is important to be an NP. So part of me thinks it would be beneficial for me to work as an RN before pursing a career as an NP. But we will see. Now we wait ?

After completing the first year they recommend that we work for a year (at-least my specialty) and then return to complete the masters portion.

For NeoNatal? I think that is the only specialty they require a year of RN experience, especially in a NICU. I can’t imagine they turn anyone away who doesn’t have previous RN experience (In re to other specialities) as this program Is for those who are starting from scratch.

anyone hear back about an interview yet? Or know when they start letting us know? So anxious!

No... patiently waiting! Tomorrow I will be taking a tour of the school so I hope to get more info!

Okay now I am nervous because it’s 8 weeks after the application deadline and it says that they let applicants know around 12 weeks. Has no one gotten an interview yet?

I just received an email that I was offered an interview! Anyone else hear back?

No the acute care NP as well, you have to do a year of clinical in acute care

Yes I got an interview! So excited and nervous!

Anyone do their interview yet? How was it?

I received an interview also! Does anyone know if receiving an interview means you are being considered for the masters (what I applied for) or for the accelerated bachelors?
