   Evansmom you can go on Sail and look at the nursing courses schedule. Clinicals will not be there as they are not assigned until the right before your semester start. So the best idea you can get is the schedule that is in Sail.

   Hey evansmom, For the last group, we all interviewed during the first 2 weeks of march and didn't start getting letters until the beginning of April. So it was about a month before we heard anything. Good luck! I know waiting is agony.

8. Should I go ahead and get "RN" engraved after my name when
