Hello! I also called today and was told they haven't sent anything out for the masters program, just the bachelors, and that they would start interview invitations on Monday next week!

Tuesday 9pm. Tuesday, April 3rd at 1045am. So nervous. Has anyone been interviewed by another nursing school before? The sound of group interviews always makes me nervous HAHA

I received an interview invitation for Tuesday, April 3rd at 9:15am, however I don't think I have received any information about my financial aid. Did you receive it in an email from the school?

[anniebaer]

Hi! I received one for Tuesday the 3rd at 9:15 as well.

[anniebaer]

Yes, I received a financial aid email from SFSU

Hello! I also got the invitation. My interview is on Tuesday, April 3 at 9:15am. Does anyone know if we should bring anything like a portfolio or resume? I already included my resume in the application. Any advice for the interview would be wonderful! I am so nervous! Good luck you to all of you out there!

Hi All,

Just wanted to say congrats to all of you who received interviews thus far. Good Luck and hope all your interviews went great!!

I have a B.S. in Kinesiology with a concentration in Health Science from California Polytechnic State University. I am applying to the Community and Public Health Concentration for the ELMSN this fall.

I have my interview Thursday, April 5th at 2:15pm, and would say I am equally nervous and excited for the experience. If anyone would like to share their experience with the group interview, any questions, the parking situation, the vibe of the whole process I would be very grateful.

Best of luck to everyone in this process, I am sure every one of you deserves to be in this program and would make great nurses!

@khemm: the best advice I can give is just to go in there knowing that you have done everything you can and that you are prepared. Don't get too stressed about it, that will only make it more challenging for yourself. I parked in the public parking lot (lot #20 on the SFSU map) and it was super easy - just a 2 min walk to the interview room.

Does anyone know about how many applicants they interview?
