Nova Southeastern University Entry-Level BSN Program

Published

hello,

i have a few questions for nova southeastern university (davie, fl campus) current nursing students and alumni.

i was told that there is an interview process; i would like to know what the interview process is like?

what questions are being asked?

how you are being evaluated?

how many people are in the room?

what kind of setting/environment does it take place in?

also.. would you say this school is difficult to get accepted in? what kid of students are they looking for (academically)? any tips &/or suggestions?

xoxo

I submitted my application last month for the January 2010 program. The girl at the front desk in admissions said it would take about 4 wks to find out whether or not I got the interview ... we'll see =/ I curretly have a 3.4 and I'm taking my last pre-reqs at MDC this semester. If all goes well I should have a 3.6 by the end. This essay you write at the interview pretty much sounds like the essay portion of the application ??

Hey Mayteb. My interview is on Tuesday this upcoming week. I am excited but nervous at the same time. I wanted to ask you how long is the personal interview? Approximately how many questions do they ask you?

When did you submit your paperwork and how long before you heard from them on your interview? Also, did they call you or did they send you a letter in the mail? I hate waiting - lol

Well for me was complicated. I applied for August 09 but since I summited everything on the deadline I had to re-apply for Jan 2010. The deadline was Oct 1st . They called me last week on Wednesday the 7th. So I guess its pretty fast. Maybe like a week or two the most. They give you a call and send an interview packet by email you have to print and bring it with you to the interview.

So you applied for aug 09 but missed the deadline - is that what happened? Mine was a last minute decision so I personally dropped off all of my paperwork on oct 1. They did cash my application fee so at least I know they are reviewing it. I called the admissions couselor today and left him a voicemail regariding my status. Lets see what happens .. Good luck on your interview by the way, let me know how it goes! Have you read the threads from students who went through the interview process? There's a lot of useful information!

Hey Tara, I have my interview on Tuesday as well! Ahhh....! If you have any last minute info to share please do haha. Good luck!

Best of lucks to you all... When I did my interview i felt it lasted like 100000000 mhrs... but honestly was like 10 mints... Hope everything goes well!

I hope everyone did well on their interview. I have mine on Friday November 6, 2009. Does anyone remember any questions? or their essay? Also, did any receive an acceptance letter?

The essay was to write what road signs let you to be a nurse and u have 10 min to write that. They ask a bunch of interview questions, the one i had trouble with was when the asked me what was the most successful or the greatest thing i achieved in my life. The interview is only like 10 min and they're very friendly so don't stress at all. Wish you luck tell me how everything goes.

I have my interview wednesday for the jan 2010 class , im nervous because I had no idea that they started doing them in september! :/ ugh im worried about everything lol.....

ooo and aabout the interview attire did you wear a suit or skirt??

I know itsprofessional but im thinking a dress wouldnt be so bad?? lol

everyone was wearing different outfits. someone did wear a skirt. wear what makes you comfortable and confident.

I am so anxious. Has anyone heard or received any letters from Nova ? Did anyone get accepted yet?
