Hey Darwin, CONAH doesn't drug test, especially for onboarding. They may once you're already in the program for suspicious/questionable behavior, but it's extremely rare. Hope this helps and congrats!

Sorry for the late reply its been busy lately! Interviews are conducted in groups. You'll be called into the administration building to watch a video and write a quick, timed essay response (2 paragraphs). Then you'll be further divided into pairs to conduct the verbal and hands on portion of the interview. You will be interviewed by your future nursing instructors so please dress to impress and come prepared with thoughtful, brief responses to questions like: Why CONAH? Why you want to become a RN? Etc. The hands on activity usually tests your ability to not only follow instructions, but also your ability to effectively communicate said instructions so that your interview partner can complete the task too. What does this mean? You'll take turns giving instructions to one another on how to complete a certain (very straightforward) task. I can't give specifics on the hands on task because they change it every application cycle. Plus, they monitor forums like this to make sure everyone has a fair chance during the selection process. The great thing is that if you've made it far enough to get an interview invite, you practically have a foot in the door. Take a deep breath, and enjoy the ride-you're one step closer to becoming a Registered Nurse! Best of luck!???

Same. Good luck to everyone!

Hi Merryyy, Check out our FB page (link is a few posts before this one). All the stats can be found there.

@EMT87 I think sometime in Nov. They’re one of the longest waits. But if anyone knows otherwise plz let us know

allnurses only allows links for fb to be posted. There’s this one: https://facebook.com/groups/433326152245966/

I called early Friday morning and have a health screening appt on the 18th. Be prepared to be on hold for a bit as EHS also handles health screenings for other nursing schools too, not just ours. From my understanding, our record must show a cleared health screening before we can connect with HR to schedule our Live Scan appointment.

I received my formal acceptance letter in the mail yesterday. Hoping you guys get yours soon, too!

@yammzzz I’d call Quest just to confirm, but it sounds like a reasonable amount of time?

From my understanding, the instructions in the attached pdf say: “Do not print out “Non-County Packet”, human resources will provide you with the forms on the day of your live scan appointment.” That non-county packet includes the ID Badge acknowledgement form, right?

No formal letter in the mail yet but please check your emails-they sent out live scan instructions and a pre-advisement questionnaire!

Did everyone receive the email outlining the clinical requirements? They sent it out yesterday

Congratulations to everyone who got accepted to the ‘23 Spring cohort!! Can’t wait to meet you all on the 28th!??? For those of you who did not get in, please do not give up, there is always the next application cycle?? Feel free to reach out if you have any qs!

I’m debating staying up today (work noc shift) to see if we get our notifications early this morning? Either way, sending positive vibes in hopes we all receive good news today

@Kenji12345 Thanks for being so helpful to us btw. I'm sure you have a lot on your plate RN, so thanks for carving out time to answer our qs!
