No I was not but I spoke with a friend who is GS already after I submitted negotiations and she told me about it. I have now completed everything and received a start date. I'm so excited!!

You've completed everything already though?

Did you recieve official offer already before being asked a start date and if so, how long after your official offer did they ask for a start?

Hi VAN MG, BSN How long was your process and how long did it take before you were asked for a start date. I have completed my bg check and go for physical and drug screen next week. I'm still waiting for official offer though.

Hey CoastGal, BSN I am also in the process of onboarding in the GS system but I found this pay scale which is a general one. The locality pay could change depending on where you live. Also, as a nurse the hiring manager told me that, like a civilian job, you can work and get paid overtime, double time for holidays, addditional 25% of hourly base pay for nights, and 35% of hourly base pay for weekends. However, I am in the process of negotiating step pay so we will see what happens. I was told I had to accept the offer first then submit negotiation with all other documents requested. Not much but hope this gives you a little more insight on the process. I attached the GS payscale for your reference. GS.pdf

Thank you!! Yes I meant the fb group.

I can't find the page...

I got in!!!!

At this point I'm banking on Fiday at the earliest ????

Times up!! Has anyone heard anything?

Also, when I spoke to the coordinator at the beginning of March I was told that they had received less than 160 apps and only about 15 more during the extension period. They are accepting between 60-70 students is what she told me.

From the website: How many days a week are the classes? The days and times of class vary by semester. On average, during the first two semesters of the program, will be held over the course of 4 days a week. Approximately two days of class time, one day of lab and one day of clinical. After the second semester, the average is two – three days a week. For Mobility students, the average is two – three days throughout the program.

I just made the same call and just seen that you posted about it already lol. I'm so impatient!!!

Update!!! Letters will be sent out before 530 tonight. I'm assuming 430 we should get emails lol.

Ok thank you!! That's a relief because I'm over here going crazy trying to figure out which email to check!!

I'm in the same boat. I have a feeling she won't send out anything till the end of the day. Do you know if it is coming to our personal email or school email?

I am so excited and nervous at the same time!! Good Luck everyone!!!

Same!! Hoping it's good enough.

Ikr!! How many points did you apply with?

I agree with you. And a whole month was just excessive in my opinion. How many points did you apply with?

Wow!! That's BS! I mean they extended the application deadline for an extra 30days and when I spoke to the coordinator she said during those 30days they received less than 15 more apps. At that time why not take advantage and start sorting through the ones you have in order to meet the deadline. I really hope their nursing school isn't this messed up.

I don't think they understand what they are putting us through lol.

Exactly how I'm feeling right now ?!! I really hope that it isn't true. Idk if I can wait another 2wks...without calling every other day.

What!!! When I turned in my packet and asked her if they were going to push back the notification dates because of the extension and she made it clear and was very adamant about keeping the deadline. Please keep us posted on the actual date of notification. I'm dying over here lol.

Has anyone heard anything yet?
