  1. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Fall 2014

    They may have changed things since I was there (I graduated in August 2013, interviewed May 2012) but expect a group interview. You will be there all day, so be prepared! The faculty are some of the best people around and will make you feel very co...
  2. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    I can second everything cubanrob said. This program is amazing, I love the professors and they expect a ton from us, but they have every right to, this is what we signed up for! I have had lots of hard days, but the support I have had from faculty an...
  3. Concordia University Irvine Accelerated BSN Fall 2012

    Hey all! Hard to believe interviews are just around the corner! Just as a head's up, there will probably be about 40 people there each day for interviews... from those 40 they take 5 groups of 8 people to do interviews and you will stay with your gr...
  4. Concordia University Irvine Accelerated BSN Fall 2012

    Also, one of the books that we use in one of the classes "Order Restored" by Ludwig is a great book about Jesus and his healing ministry but also the wholistic aspect of medicine and how to focus on the entire health of the person, not just the illne...
  5. Concordia University Irvine Accelerated BSN Fall 2012

    I can answer that too since CR and I are both in cohort #9... The theology classes are not too bad. One is more Theology and the other is more New Testament History and Literature. They are online and require quite a bit of reading and writing, but...
  6. Concordia University Irvine Accelerated BSN Fall 2012

    Beesmama, I get the impression it might have been the other way around this time??? Just looking at screen names...
  7. Concordia University Irvine Accelerated BSN Fall 2012

    Just thought I would add in what happened last round... They sent out half the interview invites on Feb 29th and the other half on March 1st. Those that got the first email went to the first interview on Friday and those of us that got the second ro...
  8. Concordia University Irvine Accelerated BSN Fall 2012

    Hey guys! It is getting so close!!! I have a feeling (based on looking at things like CubanRob and what happened with our cohort) you guys will probably be hearing within the week. My guess is the invite email will go out before the holiday. Bees...
  9. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    BeesMama, Our apps were due Feb 1. I got my email to interview on March 1. I know some people got the invite the day before and interviews were held on Friday the 16th and Monday the 19th. We had admissions letters in hand by April 2nd or 3rd, I b...

    Hey Dragonfly!!
  11. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    I know past threads have started a page on Facebook for the cohort...we could do that to better exchange info as a member only page.Anyone wanna do that?
  12. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    See you all on May 9th!!! I am so excited, grateful and humbled... can't wait!!!
  13. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    Welcome, Dragonfly!Misery loves company, right?
  14. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    You are welcome, Melman: ) I was searching frantically for what to expect in terms of questions before the interview so I figured I would save others the anguish in the future. The truth is, I am not sure anything really prepares you for the group in...
  15. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    Rob, that was totally me too!! And I went first often cause my name was first on the group list. I am the type to always see room for improvement anyway, so I suppose it is to be expected. All in all, it was a great morning.Wow, 8 down... I will take...
  16. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    Yep! So that means the applicant pool may be down to 76 rather than 80 if it was supposed to be an even 40/40 split. That is why I am curious as to what Friday looked like.
  17. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    CubanRob, glad it was a good morning for you too! Hopefully we will have the chance to put faces to names in the future :) I was happy to hear that the letters should be out by Easter! It makes the wait a little shorter than I had originally anticipa...
  18. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    Anyone else exhausted after this morning??? What a great day! It is overwhelming what a great group they have to choose from. I can see how it would be a really tough process to get the pool down to 40! The faculty were all so kind. It makes me more ...
  19. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    Good luck to everyone who is interviewing tomorrow!!! Relax and just be yourselves... I am sure you will be great! :)
  20. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    Rob, I responded but never heard anything else. I too have a tendency to ramble, and I worry about that. Maybe we will be in the same interview group and we can kick each other should we start to ramble on?
  21. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    Butters-I have been looking at several of the threads on here to see what kind of questions I need to prep for. Seems like it might be best to be prepared foe the basics... why do you want to be a nurse, what has prepared you for this field, why Conc...
  22. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    Minipeach,I think all the invites were sent out via email. That is what it seems like. The official word from Concordia has always been mid-March for invites. Seeing as how it is only the 5th, I wouldn't give up hope yet!Butters and CubanRob,I get th...

    Monday the 19th at 8:15 :) I can take a breath now... :) Good luck, all!
  24. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    The waiting begins...Could be a long 6 week wait. When is baby #2 due? Very exciting time in your life! Wishing you good luck too!! Thanks again for starting the thread. Hopefully we get more folks on here soon so we can all wait it out together. :)
  25. Concordia University Irvine ABSN Summer 2012

    So glad to see this thread! Thanks for getting the ball rolling!I turned in my app last week as well. Feels good to have it in, but kinda scary knowing it is now out of your hands.I am a Trojan too! Class of 2000, Public Administration. I have a pass...
