Hi, I applied for the Cna to LVN for spring 2015 and had my interview this past Monday. I am nervous about waiting. Did you go to the interview? If so let me know!

Hello there! I also applied for Spring 2015. I was there last Monday the 3rd for my interview and now playing the waiting game. I'm so nervous.

What are some of the questions being asked during the interview?

NessaLvn2Rn89 · Nov 12, 2014

My interview was under 10 minutes. They asked me most common ones for nursing admission. Long/short term goals. Why you want to be a nurse, what will make you a good nurse, any obstacles, weaknesses/strengths.

Hi, I am so nervous waiting as well! Can you let me know when you receive your letter and I will do the same! We should be getting them within the next week or so and I am praying we all get in!

NurseMeg91 · Nov 19, 2014

My interview was also less than 10 minutes, mostly about why I chose nursing, my past experiences, asked about my current CNA job and if I was ready/willing to quit to commit to school. Good luck, when are you applying?

NessaLvn2Rn89 · Nov 19, 2014

MegantheCNA91, yes I will let you know when I receive my letter. I hope and pray we all get in as well. We should hear from them either this week the earliest and next week the latest. Next week is already the the 3rd week. Everyday I'm checking my mailbox. I'm just super nervous.

Ahh I know I am going crazy! Haha. I can't wait til we hear back. I was reading once we hear back if accepted we have a uniform fitting day. I haven't applied for financial aid, have you?

NessaLvn2Rn89 · Nov 21, 2014

@Megan, I feel you 100 percent. We are in the same boat lol and yes I heard that too and also that we have a one week survival camp shortly after the acceptance letter. And I haven't applied for financial aid either. I am waiting to see if I get in or not. I hope it's not too late to apply for aid.

Haha well I am glad I'm not the only one. If I don't get in im applying for the following semester though. And yes I havent either and I am kind of worried about not being able to get aid but if we are already CNAs we will not have to pay as much thankfully. I might just have to take a bank loan if financial aid doesn't let us at this point. I hope we get the letters this week!
