Fall 2020 Mountain View Nursing Program Applicants

Published

Hey Everyone!

I wanted to start a new thread for Fall 2020 applicants at Mountain View, since I didn't find one already here. Let's see if we can help eachother out and answer some questions for eachother. Currently, I have 35 points, but will be applying with about 40, I believe. I'm wondering if that is competitive? Also, I need to get my physical, titers, and vaccines, but don't have health insurance. Any ideas where I can get them done at a decent price? I found a website but I am not sure if they will accept stuff from there....

I think it went well but I can't say that I'm 100% certain of anything. I was nervous too but I think they know that is what's expected. I was also told that we would be getting our confirmation emails in about 3 weeks. So, I'm thinking about maybe around March 23rd?? I get nervous just thinking about it.

They interview over 100 every cycle and last year only 45 people made it in and about less than half made it to second semester.

How the assistant was talking, she led me to believe that there weren't as many applicants this time around. She was talking like she was confident that most who applied would be accepted as long as you didn't bomb the interview. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

I wonder why only half of the accepted make it through the first semester or how many end up graduating?

If you go to the Texas Board of Nursing website, in 2018 they only had 27 sit for the NCLEX in 2018 and 38 in 2019. That's a very small number compared to El Centro and Brookhaven. That still doesn't deter me though. If I'm one of the lucky few who last throughout the program, I would be confident that I would pass the NCLEX due to their pass rates.

I hope I make it in because I think I did bad on my interview. How did everyone interview go?

I’m sure you did fine! Were u just nervous?
mine was alright. I was nervous about the essay and not sure if it was long enough or what sounded good. And the interview portion was good but I brought up that I had kids so IDK if that was a negative to them ?

You’re probably overthinking it. I believe interviews ended today so hopefully we’ll hear something soon. Hopefully next week but the interviewer told me 3 weeks which would make the notices come around the 23rd. It probably won’t be next week though now that I’m thinking about it because I believe that’s Spring break.

Hopefully by end of this week we’ll know! Someone had said they were trying to finish and send emails before Spring break. On the timeline it says our acceptance or denial should be sent back to them by the 23rd.
