Hello all, I'm currently applying to both RF and Northshore. I am not from the area and would like to gather additional information.
Does one school offer something the other school doesn't?
Please help!
Hi did you interview yet?
In case you haven't, they're pretty laid back seem to really just want to get to know you. There was an short essay prompt to type on the computer. Then you get some time talking to a current student in a group setting while you wait to interview with two faculty members.
One interview is more clinically focused and seeing how you deal with problems/challenges in the clinical setting. The other is more focused on your likelihood to thrive in the program? your support during school and coping mechanisms, studying habits, etc.
Not sure if it's still like that but good luck!
It wasn't specific clinical knowledge. She asked about my experience as a nurse, description of the unit I worked at and the patient population, and questions were more like behavioral interviewing for the clinical setting--Tell me about a time that demonstrated your problem solving skills in a situation that required your immediate attention. Good luck!

I don’t think it’s technically rolling admissions. I do think they extend some acceptance letters before they interview everyone, probably to candidates they absolutely want. It seems like most people hear mid July to early August but some earlier than that. This year though the timeline could differ but who knows

Hi Marcopolo,
I have an online interview with the program in October and was wondering if you had any advice for the interview?! Thanks!
