Hi everyone! I noticed that there wasn't a thread yet for CUI's Fall 2021 ABSN program and wanted to start one! Is there anyone else applying?

I definitely do. They “strongly” recommend it in their profile for applicants. 5/6 people interviewing in my group had either healthcare experience by means of employment or volunteer hours. I’ll also say that while their interview questions are not directly asking about your personal experience working in healthcare/with patients, I think it was very beneficial for us to be able to answer questions by telling stories of our experiences working with patients, under doctors, beside nurses, etc.

Hi Joanne!
Thank you for making the facebook group, unfortunately I do not have facebook. I am actually thinking of making one for the purpose of this group. I do have an instagram if you or anyone else in the cohort would like to connect @naaasiaa_
