    Invited for Interview (nursing school)..?

    No, an interview is never a guarantee of acceptence. It's just like when you interview for a job. It's not just you're guaranteed the job because they called you for an interview-- what would be the...
  8. Big question: do you already have a bachelors? If you do, that may limit the amount (if any) federal aid you could get. How expensive are the respective programs you are applying to? I think first...

    I don't think anyone here can tell you your chances of getting in. We don't know where you're applying, how you stack up against other students applying, the criteria other nursing programs base their...

  14. My mom once got a phone call from her hospital when we were on vacation asking her to come in for a shift. She told them she was 16 hours from home, and they had the audacity to tell her, "we would...
