FREE TUITION - FREE BSN - University of Arizona

I felt like I did alot better in one on one interviews. One minute was not enough and afterwards I thought of all the things that I wanted to say.. Really don't want to get in debt for other programs.. Guess we will see.... So frustrating. I wish that UMC would pick up the extra as they are expanding...

I still can't believe that I missed you, dmskoka! What a crazy weekend. I guess you technically saw me, though.

I realize that the lessened need for new RNs is only temporary; and when this recession alleviates, I am guessing there will once again be a very pressing need for new RNs as older ones become able to retire.

I hope the program will be able to accomodate 96 students sooner rather than later.

The interview reminded me a little bit of childbirth-- you remember every painful detail for 72 hours and then it all starts to fade into some form of dissociative amnesia. After an interview, though, there's a minimal two week wait before you learn the outcome of that trial. With childbirth, at least there's instant gratification.

FYI to all,

I called the CON to inquire about decisions on the ABSN interviews. The review committee will not meet with the Dean until next week, and then it's an additional day to send out the letters of acceptance/see you next year.

So don't expect to see anything in your email/mailbox until Monday or Tuesday of next...at the earliest. So go about your business, get through the week, enjoy the weekend, and hold your breath starting next Monday.

Saludos,

GF

thanks, just got acceptance from another school.. This is driving me nuts....

That's great! Congrats! You have so many back up options, I wish I would have applied to some back up schools. It's U of AZ or bust for me. I have already been holding my breath for ten days-- another week is going to pass soooo

I agree...oh so painfully slow!.......:sstrs:

very very very painful:lol_hitti:thnkg:

every time i get an alert that someone has posted to this thread, my heart jumps and i am certain that one of you has received an admissions offer and that:

today is the day !!!

but it's not.

:throcomp:

it's just another member of allnurses lurking around,

searching for answers on forums that can't yet be found.

welcome to the forum of torture, ajwildcat-- the place where only the most masochistic of members gather and--

complain. a lot. (at least i do).

first to hear, post up!

didn't mean to scare you!! I think when I get that email or letter my heart is going to stop.. I really really want this.. ahhh agony....

:chair:

This is going to be a long weekend--

with bad weather to boot!

:urgycld:

Haha! Thanks for the warm welcome! A long weekend indeed. I seriously can't wait any longer. I am going crazy! I feel like my interview did not go "great". The two other people in my group were "so qualified". One had her phD, the other her Masters...hmmm I have a BA in Elementary Education HAHA. Oh well! Although I am kicking myself for turning down my other opportunities.
