    crad611 - I didn't get that email, but I applied for the adult/geriatric specialization. Which specialty did you apply for? It may just be the case that your specialty needed more time to go through...

    PHOENIX!! Congrats, lady!! How exciting for you!!! I just had my interview today. It was pretty standard. I was soooooo nervous though. I tried to keep my answers succinct...but I also felt like...

    I live by the CON. Kind of. I don't know if there is any good way for me to get there from my apartment besides walking. Hmmmmmm...if the weather is bad maybe I'll be cabbing it (since I don't have...

    sjj6810 - What great news!! YAY!!! Misspriss - thanks for the input! I didn't get that first email so I wasn't really sure about the format for the interview. Since we're in the same department, I...

    Misspriss - did you get the idea that your interview was going to be one-on-one, or do you get the impression that your interview will be in a group

    Thanks for the support!! I keep giving myself a similar pep-talk. If I don't get in this round, maybe I'll get in next round, or maybe I'll wind up getting into a different program. Becoming an NP...

    I am getting super nervous about the interview. I heard back that mine will be at 9:30AM on April 4th. It sounds like I'm just interviewing with one person...maybe it's one faculty member and a few...

    I checked last year's thread and it looks like there was a second wave of notifications for interviews a week after the first wave found out. Your specialty may not have sent out notifications yet....

    Phoenix - do not lose hope! If they are notifying by specialty, they may just not have sent out notices to the mental health NPs yet! I'm pulling for

    AniLMT - I agree with misspriss. I don't think there is really a cookie cutter applicant or application (at least this what I understood from the info session I attended). I think it's a good idea...

    I GOT AN INTERVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Waaaahooooooooooo!! YEAH! They actually called me about it. I guess the email they sent me bounced back to them. I don't know why because they sent...

    rachelrae155 replied to SCNP2B's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Congrats guys!! This is making me a little nervous because I think last year the adult/geriatric applicants heard back when the acute care folks did. But, regardless of my status, I'm so happy that...

    I know what you mean - every time I get an email from this site I think - Oh my gosh people are hearing back and I'm not! I'm totally getting the April 4th email! You are definitely right about the...

    I have gmail and I'll have to get that tool! To pass the time I've been doing a lot of classwork for A&P II. I wouldn't call that leisure time, but it certainly takes up a lot of my "free" time!...

    CONGRATS!!! That is some fantastic news for you!! Good luck at the interview!

    rachelrae155 replied to PC2009's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello, I know this is a somewhat old post, but I'm curious to know which direction you went. If you did end up going to Rush, what do you think about the program? What kind of jobs do people seem to...

    Three weeks is super fast, but I know it's going to feel like an eternity!! I'm trying to not get too excited about the possibility of getting an interview, although I am keeping my fingers crossed....

    Welcome, sarahl! I feel like the wait is the worst part about the application process (even though the interview notification/final decisions have a really quick turnaround)! Good luck to you!!

    rachelrae155 replied to SCNP2B's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Good morning all! As far as the research course goes, I was possibly trying to take that online (if I'm accepted). Phoenix, I checked out City Colleges on myccc.edu (you should now have a login for...

    If it makes you feel better, I also did not get an email saying my application was completed. The only one I received said that my letters of rec were still outstanding, but a few hours later my last...

    rachelrae155 replied to SCNP2B's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I went to an info session about a year ago for Rush and I thought you could go the NP route through their program after completing your generalist coursework, although I could be confusing that with...

    rachelrae155 replied to SCNP2B's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I am thinking about applying to Rush's program. If I'm not accepted to UIC, I may just saddle myself with taking six classes over the course of summer and fall semester so that I can apply this...

    rachelrae155 replied to SCNP2B's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hi Seaster! I had your same question and called ETS about it a couple of weeks ago. Since UIC does accept the scores electronically, they should have recieved your scores the day they officially...

    I forgot to add this: Once you register at the campus you want to attend, that is when you schedule your classes. I think if it's your first time scheduling a class, you are required to schedule in...
