I got my acceptance for the Portland cohort today, as well. Excited to meet everyone!

I feel like I rambled and maybe shouldn't have talked about how getting dog poop sprayed in my face made me realize I'd rather be a nurse, but it is what it is and it ain't what it isn't, so

I'm sure you've already finished but I would get the prompt, jot some ideas down, then practice speaking the answers out loud before the recording part. How do you think you did?

I just completed my interview this morning. I woke up at 2 am and couldn't fall back asleep and I figured I wouldn't be MORE alert as the day went on, so I just went for it at about 5 this morning. I'm not sure that I did very well. The questions weren't unusual, but I would start answering and then realize I wasn't giving examples, or I would draw a blank and not elaborate, etc. I think I'm being super self-critical because I'm tired but I guess we'll see!

There's a thread posted for the ABSN but I don't see one for the three year BSN program yet! I sent my application in January 15th for the Portland program. I misunderstood the email that was sent on January 14th. It seemed to imply that if an application was not in verified status on NursingCAS by the application deadline of 02/15, the application would not be considered at all. I had been working on my essays for two months because I wanted to make sure they were perfect. I read over them quickly, made some tweaks and submitted. I'm super nervous that I came off as overzealous or had some grammatical errors I didn't catch the first time. The website says that we can expect interview invites about a month after the application deadline. Has anyone received an invite yet?
