USD MEPN Interview tips??

[AvaRN22]

The interview is in a few weeks and I was wondering if anyone could give me a few pointers. I know the current students are probably too busy to respond to this, but any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks =)

Same here! Did you get any kind of confirmation from USD?

No, they said we'll get a carbon copy from that receipt they sent. My check hasn't cleared yet so I figure it hasn't been processed. I'll call them on Monday if I haven't seen anything.

Haven't received the receipt but the check cleared so that's confirmation enough. Also, I was sent instructions on how to establish my online account with email, so I'm officially a USD student...woohoo!

I overnighted my check yesterday! I am still waiting to hear from USF but as of right now it looks like I will be joining all of you in San Diego in August. I am super excited about starting nursing school and getting to meet all of you! Did USD send any sort of email confirmation when they received your deposit? I should have sent it in a few days earlier but I was waiting to hear from USF...

Hi. I did USD interviews last year. They are very friendly and try their best to not be intimidating. It is nerve - racking to be sure but you will all do fine. Just remember that you would not have gotten an interview if you were not a very strong applicant. Good luck!

Hello!!! I was wondering if any of you that had an interview and were accepted would be so kind as to share what the interview experience was like? I was just notified yesterday that I got an interview now it's time to prepare! I am so excited and hopefully will be talking with some of you soon. USD is my number one choice for so many reasons and I don't want to sound like a babbling fool when I'm on campus. Thank you so much in advance and I hope you're studies are going well.

Hi Christy17, I got that email as well. I am so nervous for it because I want to get in so bad and do not want to screw it up! :) Where else did you apply to?

@Briordan there's actually a more recent forum that was started by christy17 regarding the USD program. It has a bunch of 2012 MEPN applicants, here's the link to that forum:

Hi could you provide us with your experience of the interview at USD? What kinds of questions did they ask in the group interview and individual interview?

Thanks

[nurseSIM]

Can any previous applicants or current USD students provide us with examples of interview questions and what type of applicant they are looking for?
