  1. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    The anticipation is a lot to take, I know! Since tomorrow is the last day they are interviewing people I think they'll want to meet up and make some decisions at the end of this week or next week. I'd...
  2. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Well, I think we can say pretty confidently that finishing a couple of prereqs has not been a major factor for them to
  3. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Hi lolita, I can tell that this has been a frustrating and confusing process for you. You are clearly very well prepared and dedicated to the healthcare profession, and you have a lot of experience....
  4. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Tues, Feb 15 sounds right to me. Don't know if I read that somewhere, heard it, or just made it up in my own head.
  5. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    I think that their disclaimer for the process, including waitlists, is pretty standardized too; I heard a similar thing during my interview. -->beebopdre: I chose the AGNP after they sent out the...
  6. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    No, it's just a conversation. I think the reference was regarding the standard questions that the faculty use to give the interview. They write notes for each question. It was my impression that they...
  7. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    -->beebopdre: I also interviewed for AGNP. I was told that I would be interviewing with one faculty member. I was nervous beforehand, but quickly we just began talking and it was easier. I'm not...
  8. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    My experience was similar for my interview, although I only interviewed with one person. I felt that it was very conversational and relaxed. She said that notifications about acceptance would go out...
  9. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Thanks for the information about interviews! Best of luck to everyone!
  10. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Thanks for the info, angeljs! I hope that we become classmates in June! I'll be interviewing for the AGNP track as well. I'm lucky that things worked out so I'll be able to interview in person. Do you...
  11. Accelerated MS VCU 2011

    No, I have no nursing degree now. The Accelerated MS program is for people who have bachelors degrees in another field. You have to take prerequisites (like anatomy, physiology, microbiology, etc)...
  12. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    No, I received it in an email. Which specialization did you apply
  13. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    I just received an invitation to interview for the AGNP specialization. I'm very excited, of course, and hope everyone hears back with offers for interviews very soon! Keep us updated.
  14. For me, the desire to go into nursing is more to expand what I currently do. I work in community mental health with very at-risk people who have a range of psychiatric and medical issues. It was...
  15. This is a new thread that I thought would be nice to have, talking specifically about the reasons that people have chosen to seek a advanced practice nurse degree, via a direct-entry/second-degree...
  16. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Your reasons for applying to the APNI program, MSW530, are truly like mine! We'll have to talk more about this, especially if we become classmates this summer. I could go on and on, but I guess we...
  17. Accelerated MS VCU 2011

    Yeah, the competition is very fierce! I have a good friend who started their program this past summer, and says she loves it. I applied to the FNP track. I have no idea what to expect about...
  18. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    oh, and i checked the "application status" website just now and it looks like some applications are still under review (mine is). perhaps different specialties are at different points in offering...

    For me, the desire to go into nursing is more to expand what I currently do. I work in community mental health with very at-risk people who have a range of psychiatric and medical issues. It was...
  20. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Congrats to those who have already recieved invites! I think the invites must be given out at various times for various specialties. I opted for the AGNP myself, and it seems like most invites have...
  21. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    I can definitely mirror everyone's anticipation anxiety about hearing back. I don't think we should expect to hear anything just yet, though. I looked through some posts on here from last year from...
  22. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    When I emailed the grad admissions dept, they put me in touch with some CON (College of Nursing) faculty who answered some questions of mine. The faculty member that I emailed back and forth with was...
  23. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    It is my understanding that they just emailed the FNP applicants about this. The email said that they had recently changed the Gerontological NP specialization to include all adults as well, which...
  24. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    Excellent! I know midwifery is a more visible part of the healthcare system out West, particularly in the Pacific Northwest, than it is out here on the East Coast. The climate for reproductive...
  25. Seattle University -- APNI 2011

    From reading posts from past years it seems that invitations to interview have been given in very late January and through February. If its not possible for you to interview in person, I know that...
