WSU BSN Spring 2017

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Hi everyone!

I applied to WSU's BSN program for Spring 2017 in Spokane. I'm just wondering if anyone else on this site also applied, even if you applied to a different campus? If you don't mind sharing, where do you stand - GPAs, TEAS score, volunteer/work experience, college where you completed your prereqs?

Any advice on the application process would also be helpful! Especially from past applicants who attended or are currently attending WSU's College of Nursing.

Thank you!

Karen

I found some possible questions in previous forums.

The interviews are few days away í ½í¸±

Good luck everyone! Let me know how it goes and I will do the same!

Mine went well. Super relaxing. Now another 3 weeks of waiting.

Mine went well too. I got emotional towards the end when I was telling them how much I want this, but I've heard it's good to leave an impression! Not looking forward to waiting...

Mine went well. I got emotional within the first few minutes of my interview when I shared my story on what made me want to pursue nursing as a career. But like Nicole said, I hope it left a good impression. One of my interviewers was a bit intimidating actually but she seemed to soften up halfway through the interview. Overall, they seemed interested in what I had to say.

Here's to another 3 weeks of the waiting game...

Did you guys notice how much the interviewers were writing on their question sheets? Some people were saying they barely wrote anything and others had interviewers who took a lot of notes. I'm just curious on what you guys had noticed and how you interpreted it.

They wrote down everything I said. I think it's just so they can remember you and evaluate you later

So does that mean it's a bad thing if interviewers didn't write much?

No it probably depends on the interviewer. Mine were older women so they probably wrote a lot to remember while others can get a general sense without writing down much

Hmm okay. My interviewers were older women as well and they wrote some notes in the beginning but not alot. Maybe it's because they have so much experience that they just know right away if you're a good fit for the program... idk. I asked a few people about it after my interview and they all had different answers. Some interviewers wrote alot while some just listened for the most part. Maybe I'm just overthinking lol

Nicole, did a good majority of your WSU nursing friends apply for spring semester? I heard less people apply for Spring since most people finish their prereqs within the typical academic time frame (August/Sept to May/June). Are you applying for Spring because you ended up staying at WSU for another semester?

I'm just nervous because I know there aren't a lot of spots for transfer students...

Only two of my friends applied to Spokane in the Spring. One applied to tri cities. Most are waiting til Fall. I'm actually a semester early applying.
