SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University ABSN 2021-2022

Published

Hi everyone,

I've started this thread so we can discuss and share our experiences applying to SUNY's ABSN program for 2021. Being that the application period just opened, I’m sure we can all benefit from sharing information in regards to the process.

Best of luck to those applying!

was your interview one on one or in a group setting?

I had a one on one 

If it is true that even those who have already been accepted now have a status of "Application Started," then the change does not mean anything.  They did not  review all the applications, and perhaps by changing the status they are hoping to better conceal this?

I had a one on one too and it only lasted seven mins ? I’m terrified

my application said “application forward to program for review” even after I did my interview. I noticed it change yesterday

I don’t think the duration of the interview matters. mine would’ve been short too but I often ramble and asked some questions as well. good luck to you! ? 

My status now says "Application Started" - so yeah adding to that trend, interesting. I haven't heard anything back either way though..

Mine still says "forwarded to program for review" ...submitted everything in January and my last pre req grade in May and still crickets on my end

My status has changed to "Applicated Started" too!  hopefully that means a little more movement? 

I accepted my seat about a week back and my status was : "Offer accepted" up until two days ago where it changed to "Application started" I was nervous that I clicked something wrong, so I'm glad it isn't just me.

Wonder what they're doing LOL

They randomly emailed me for an interview today and I only had an hour to prepare and I’m scared I’m gonna get a rejection email soon. 

What?! After 8 months of waiting they give you ONE hour notice?! Ugg.

yeah ? I submitted my application in december. in January they sent me an email saying that my application was forwarded and I never heard back after. and then last week at 10, I randomly got an email saying I was scheduled for an interview at 12 but I didn’t see it till 11. so now I’m scared cause I wasn’t prepared at all. and most people heard back the next day and I still haven’t heard back yet.
