   purplepixie replied to purplepixie's topic in School Programs

   Hi melisamct, I did not end up applying to or enrolling at DSN. I pursued some different options. If I recall correctly, I think I was put off by DSN's website. The information provided about the program and application process was limited and it ...

   My application for the Mayo AZ program was rejected, but I just got a job offer from Mayo MN! For those w/ interviews, make sure to prepare behavioral question answers. The website link they send you on interviewing w/ Mayo does a pretty good job of...

   Yup, MN offered me an interview on 11/6! I applied for a few jobs with them because their application process is different - you apply for the individual positions and if hired are enrolled in the New Grad program. I left a message for the AZ job re...

   purplepixie replied to Nancy,BSN's topic in Arizona

   I applied for the Med/Surg only but my application status only says "received" still. I know they get lots of applicants and I applied late on the last day the posting was open, so I'm hoping maybe that means they haven't fully processed my applicati...

   How do we figure out our Duke email...? I just recently submitted my deposit. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. Edit: Nvm, gotta wait for the Net ID.

    purplepixie replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

    I'm 25 with a BA in another field. I took a few years off to figure out what I truly wanted to do before continuing my education. Incredibly glad that I did. Also, I'd love to start a FB group. But it's telling me I need one other friend or email ...

    purplepixie replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

    I'm sorry, Pmilian :/ Did they specifically tell you that your personal statement was the reason for rejection? If not, I strongly recommend asking admissions if they can give you some specific feedback so that you can focus your efforts appropriat...

    purplepixie replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

    Congrats to everyone! I got in, too, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to accept MUSC. I'm feeling a little torn. I know I'd enjoy living at the beach much more (and what could help more with the stress of an ABSN program??), and MUSC also has a stellar ...

    You can go ahead and call, Lemonsas. I'm an out-of-state, applied for regular admission, and the letter is dated the 1st. I didn't know they were sending out decisions this early. Super nice surprise.
