Prepare as if it is a job interview. They want to see a candidate who is put together and demonstrates that they can handle the stress of the program and the time commitment especially. Draw from personal experiences when they ask questions. Good luck!

Okay thank you ! Do you remember any specific questions that I should prepare for ?

I think they had some behavioral questions (I.e. name a situation when you had to think critically, etc.). They also just wanted to know more about you as an unique individual. What brought you to nursing? Why nursing? What skill/qualities do you feel make you an ideal candidate for an accelerated program? What does evidence based practice mean and how would you apply it to your own nursing practice? etc. They want to see how you can think and process information on the spot while also paying attention to thoughtfulness in your replies. Good luck!

This is so helpful @ChrisRN . I’ll be interviewing next week as well. Is it true that they interview close to the amount of students they admit?

I don't know about that. I do know two years ago when we did group interviews majority of the people in my group interview were accepted. We had about 5-6 people in our interview and 5 of them became my classmates.

Hey Nadia, I saw your status update and couldn’t comment on it for some reason. But if you check your portal the admissions decision is there

Hey ! That’s odd that you couldn’t comment but I’m a little confused, where exactly would this portal be ?

Sorry, it’s the campusnet login.

Okay and from there would I just click applicant or a different tab ?

I think it would be under the applicant > summary tab or maybe check the student tab and check program detail or the degree audit

If there is nothing there I wouldn’t be surprised. I haven’t heard anything back personally and have emailed them about any updates about decisions and they said they have no updates and the ABSN advisor has been furloughed
