Have not heard yet, I interviewed on 3/26. I think we were told we would hear back by next week Friday.. When was your interview?

I was on 3/26 at 3pm. I wasnt sure if she meant this Friday or next Friday.

Probably by next Friday, I checked my portal and it is still "In Review". Has your status changed?

Does anyone know the NCLEX pass rate for pace in 2018? The 2017 rate for NY was 1:1. What made you pick Pace? I am currently doing my research on ABSN programs in NY. Any feedback would help.

Its above 99.90% for ABSN and a little lower for traditional.

Hey, I also interviewed on 3/26 at 1pm. They said within a week but seems like people in the past have gotten them within 4-5 days! Not sure if business days count.

Also, I don't think us late interviewees have a lot to worry about in terms of spots, given we didnt bomb the interview of course. They said they had enough spots left so it pretty much sounded like as long as you do well on your interview, you're good! ? Also if anyone from 3/26 or 3/28 receives anything (even if a change of status from in review to complete/decision made), please let us know!

I really hope there are still enough seats for us ? I interviewed on 3/26 at 2pm and there were 12 of us. I wonder how many were interviewed at 1 and 3pm slots as well as Thursday interviews! I also looked into the Pace ABSN Facebook page and there are 25 members but that is probably not accurate or not all who got accepted joined that group. Idk, just getting nervous here. Lol.. I'm sure we will hear sooner than Friday next week.

There were 12 of us too! So combining 3/26 and 3/28 with at least 3 time slots each leaves about 72 students for the rest of the spots . And yes, for us 3/26 people, we should definitely hear Monday or Tuesday!

Interviewed 3/28 and I haven’t heard anything either. Online still says status in review

does anyone know if the ABSN program still has the option to complete over the course of 2 years? or did pace get rid of that option?

/ does anyone know of past students who have completed the ABSN program in 1 year and heard any input from how the schedule and intense the course was? just trying to get some real input.

I know more than one person who completed the absn program. They said it’s challenging but doable! With a strong support group and dedication I’m sure it’s possible!

My friend just graduated from the pleasantville campus and one of my friends is currently attending. It’s a lot of work and you have to manage your time well. But as long as you put in the effort it’s doable. She worked as a medic working a max of 4 shifts a month and she said even that little time working made it a lot more challenging.

[sampress18]

Has anyone heard back yet who interviewed on either 3/26 or 2/28?
