Hey all heard back already for Primary ANP very surprising it was so quick. Setting up a time slot once I get my work schedule. Good luck and keep us updated.

Hi @NPhopefull

Congratulations ! I'm just wondering when did you apply? I applied on the last day 11/8, still haven't heard back anything yet.

Hey I think I put it in on Nov 4th. My friend heard back got the same date as me, he submitted it in like august though. 

Specializes in Cardiac.

Has anyone applied for the Acute Care NP Program and heard back yet? I applied on the last date 11/09.

I don't know if submission date matters. It's still odd to me that Interview dates were given so quick. I wouldnt be surprised if they went by GPA only to weed people out for interviews. Theres no way to have read essays and have chosen from the applicants so fast. Last year it took like two weeks to hear back and I was able to choose the day and time. This time around I was given the date and I could choose the time. Thats my opinion though I don't know anyone else who applied so cant say anything else about it.

Any idea if they go through each speciality in order, as in work on Primary applicants then Acute Care applicants, FNP applicants (not necessarily in that order obviously)

Primary and acute care are at the same time. The email said both can be interviewing within the same group. I have no idea about FNP but I do know they get the most applicants.

Hi pen1,

I'm not surprised we need to wait one more week, because we submitted in the last minutes. As a former nursing student from SBU, they really care about your essay and recommendation letters.

Thank you both NPhopefull and ccf! 

ccf - It's good to know they care about the essay and recommendation letters and weigh that in!

I also applied for ACNP, what was the interview like?  What types of questions did they ask? 

How is everyones application process going?
