Also Matheww, if you don't mind me asking, what were you credentials, NLN, GPA and so forth?

BklynEMT · Apr 1, 2014

Matheww, that's so funny I think we interviewed on the same day at the same time! I too am super stressed waiting to hear from them! I know that they like to interview a few more than they tend to accept, the reasoning behind it, I think, is that they expect some people to get accepted to other programs and they build their waiting list from these interviews too.

Suzanne, I am sure you will be fine. They do admit using rolling admissions but your NLN and background are excellent. Try not to stress too much. I am sure you will hear something soon!

Good luck to all!

Hi Suzane those are good scores and background. The only reason for delay i would think is bc you got your application in later than most. if you dont mind me asking did you get an extension to take the exam on march 20? Im just wondering bc i didnt think you could take the nln on any other dates past march 6. When i signed up there were only a few dates left. And i was forced to take it early even though i was not prepared. I though physical app was due march 1 and you have until april 1 latest to get in the letters of recommendation etc. But they seem really cool abt extenuating circumstances. Did you follow up with the school?

Hi All, I sent in my application on time and my required documents have all been received recently, I emailed the school and was informed that my application is complete. Hopefully I hear from them soon about the interview. I'm going crazy over here lol.

Thanks everyone, yea I'm trying not to stress, but it's hard! Kasha 123, I took the NLN at a different location so that's why I was able to take it on a later date.

Hello everyone,

I also had my interview on March 21st. So anxious to hear back. Good luck to everyone. I hope all of our next comments are "i got in" lol :-)

Stephanie, I think we were in the interview together actually.

Needless to say, I have been waiting impatiently since then. Only like 7 or 8 more days till we hear something.

Cellen, you should hopefully hear something soon.

Good luck everyone.

Had my interview on the 28th. Dont really like that they did it grouped this year though. Do you think if we email them they will give us a ballpark of how many they are taking amd how many they interviewed??

BklynEMT · Apr 1, 2014

Dlaffin09, I was really worried about the grouped interview. But, I found it to be less nerve racking than I thought. You can always give it a shot and try to email them. The worst they can say is no...

I am not sure if this change in interviewing lessens our chances or makes them better. Only reason I'm wondering, is that in the past, the ones they interviewed almost always were accepted.

Yes! I just received an e-mail for an interview! Relieved that I'm still being considered! Thanks for the support guys, now I have to pray that the rest of the process goes well!

BklynEMT · Apr 3, 2014

Good luck to everyone and I hope that these next few days fly by for us and we all receive good news.
