NSU Fall 2020 BSN

Hey, I applied already & got accepted. Everything was a really easy process. I did apply for the Davie campus though. I wouldn’t worry TOO much about the Kaplan, I didn’t score the best but, I didn’t fail either. Not to say don’t try at all, still review for it just to strengthen your chances. The essay was a scenario question & the interview was all questions about yourself, no right or wrong answer. Just stay calm & be yourself. Don’t go on a tangent during your interview. Answer the question & don’t make up any scenarios. Youtube helped me prepare for it as well just to get a feel on what type of questions they’d ask. I promise it’s not too bad!

Hi @Manu0212, I just applied for the Miami campus today for fall 2020! How was the Kaplan, interview, and essay for you? I haven't found anyone other than you who applied to the Miami campus everyone is either going to Davie or Fort lauderdale LOL. Did you get accepted? If so, how long did it take for you to find out after you completed the interview and Kaplan?

Hi @sonia1498,the Kaplan was not as hard as I expected. I used one of Kaplan's books to study, "Nursing School Entrance Exams Prep" & it really helped out a lot with the math portion, which is my weakest area but I did good in. Also, there is lots of physiology so review that. The interview & essay are a breeze to be honest, the essay is simple, doesnt have to be perfect & the interview is not longer than 5 minutes. Just to go off topic & answer their questions as best you can, they mainly ask about you. My interview was the 18th & I got accepted that same month on the 21st. Good luck & I hope this helped out!

Yes, I dont remember how long it took but you get a folder with some paperwork for you to fill out & what to do next ?

@Manu0212 did you receive an email before the acceptance package or just the package?

I had gotten the call to let me know, then the email on what to do next & weeks later a welcome package

@Manu0212 I got the call on Monday but I haven’t received the email, I don’t know if to wait or call and ask for an update on the email

I wouldnt worry, just wait on the packet & it tells you what to do from there ? You do have to pay a deposit to hold your spot so if you haven’t gotten anything in a week, I’d call just to be save your spot.

Hey guys,

I applied through NursingCas about almost 2 weeks ago and applied to NSU itself last week. I still haven't sent in my transcripts but I am doing that tomorrow. How long did it take you guys to receive a call for an interview? I'm also applying for the Miami campus not Davie.

I dont remember exactly how long but it was around 3 weeks, almost a month. I remember applying around January 18 & had my interview on February 18th, but they had called me two weeks prior to that date to let me know I was selected.

Thank you for the info! I just checked back and I submitted my application May 14th (10 days ago) to NursingCas. So fingers crossed I hear back this week! ?
