I received an email inviting me to the interview and the writing assignment for the Np program at Cal State la and I was just wondering if anyone knows what I should expect? Or maybe if there are any graduates from this program who could give me and idea of what the writing assignment is like or what the interview is like? Thanks!!

Hello, I just received my response from UCLA for my application late February 2015 and I am on the waiting/alternate list for the acute care np program for fall 2015. (Devastating!). I was just wondering if others knew what the actual likelihood of someone on the waiting list actually getting into the program and how many people are on the wait list in the first place? I applied to CAL State LA also but as everyone else I want UCLA. Does anyone know how many people got accepted last year on the wait list? Maybe 1? LOL. Also what were the applicant's qualifications for those who were accepted, especially for the acute care np program. I have a 3.72 GPA at CSUN, graduated with cum laude, 5 years ICU experience (one year of which I have been doing relief charge nurse, plus I have precepted and mentored countless new ICU/DOU employees), CCRN certification and excellent references, plus I poured my heart into my letter of intent. What happened? Though I attended the information session, it has slipped my mind as to how many students they accept annually for acute care np program. Also what is the link to check on the application status? I really appreciate your help and congrats to those who are accepted. I am trying not to loose hope but I guess it is what it is!
