National University 2022 start

[Flavio404]

Wanted to start a thread for those that applied to National University for Jan 2022 start. Anyone have any insights as to what kind of questions they ask during the interview process? I tired looking around other threads, but none of them seem to give any clear answers.

Just received my interview email as well!! So excited! Does anyone know how their program and clinical sites are structured now since Covid?  I know a lot of courses moved to online. 

[Ana Nava]

Just got the invite too! The interview times are interesting, is it an all day event? 

[TheBec, BSN, RN]

I received an invite yesterday, too! ? Good luck to everyone.

Anybody know what the interview is like? Any details on it? Do we still have the critical thinking test? If yes how do we prepare for it?

Congratulations and good luck to you all!

Would you guys mind posting your stats in the chat?

I'd like to see in what areas I can improve.

Thank you. 

With gratitude,

Hi Guys,

Anyone knows how many students they admit per cohort? Please. Also, anyone knows how many students were shortlisted. 

Nice to meet you guys here. I got my letter for interview too.

God's favor on us all.

National University said CCRN is not required. Does it have any disadvantages?

I believe they accept 15-20. I’m not sure how many nurses applied vs how many will interview.

I was told only 86 applied because covid money is so good right now no one wants to go into debt to go to CRNA school ?. I believe they accept 25. 

[HopefulRN12]

I was told 300-400 applied by the admissions lady. Where did you hear only 86??
