National University Cohort 81 - deadline November 8, 2024

Published

Hello everyone!

I am making this thread for anyone who is applying for NU's cohort 81. The application deadline for this cohort is on November 8, 2024. This is my second time applying for the program after getting denied from the last cohort due to my TEAS score. My stats are 3.73 GPA and 94 on the TEAS which I retook the other day. I also have 3 years of healthcare experience working mainly in behavioral health. 
 

Looking forward to chat with all of you here 🙂

Same! Two weeks seems agonizing just to wait, but I guess we have no choice LOL

How did your interview go?!

I was shaking when I got there but It wasn't bad at all, it felt like having a conversation with a friend. She only asked me why nursing and why national and it lasted about 25-30 minutes.

Hello guys,

I had my interview with this short lady. She was so sweet. I don't know if she was the Dean, but she was super sweet and asked me why I wanted to be a nurse. She was so helpful in setting the mood to ease my nervousness. My interview went great, and I hope we all get in.

II think you talked to the Dean of the nursing program. She's so nice and definitely made my interview like a conversation. 

Yes, thank you. I hope we will all be accepted for this cohort. I'm excited and nervous at the same time while waiting for the acceptance letter to be released 

Good news! 

According to internal source (NU student buddy) for cohort 81, ONLY 50 people applied for 40 seats...

NO WAY! That's lower than what I was expecting! That means we all have a higher chance of getting in :’) I haven't gotten any emails about acceptance letters, but my advisor reached out to the nursing department and said we won't hear back until beginning of January 😭

Yup, I think school starts Jan 6..So hopefully we will hear that week 🙂

Rooting for you all to get in! You got this! Happy holidays everyone 

Hi everyone! I just found this thread post interview yesterday! Wishing everyone luck with this process. I really hope we all get to be in school together!

Welcome! How did your interview go?

Hi! Mine went really well! [MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME] and I had a bunch in common. We spoke about my nursing goals for only half of our 40 minute conversation and then spent the other half talking about similar places we've both lived and some of our life experiences, how nursing has changed her life, her relationships with past patients, the cultural climate of nursing in socal, our favorite foods LOL etc.  How about yours?
