The University of Alabama Capstone College of Nursing (CCN) Fall 2024 FNP

Published

Anyone applying right now for fall entry? Any current students have any insight into the app process? 

Specializes in Med-surg/Renal unit then a school nurse for 16 yrs.

The questions were similar to what I would expect and some different. Like name a time a peer influenced you in a valuable way and how that has influenced you in your healthcare profession. I dressed professionally and tried to not talk too fast or too slow. I wrote the question down during the minute prep so I could make sure if there was more than one part within the question I could remember it. I've heard it can take 4-6 weeks to hear back. I have not heard anything yet.

I have been checking my email all day and missed my email until I just saw these notifications on this site and decided to recheck, went to my spam folder for some reason. I have been recommended for admission as well. I did my interview the Saturday before last, so one week and two days. Official acceptance pending background and drug screen- ordered will complete tomorrow.

Hello this is the only thread I could find relative to Fall Applications 2024 for UA. I've submitted my application rather late Feb 20th. Got an email back from Vicki about 5 days ago requesting my resume. From what I've read, they accept about 100 out of an average of 400 applicants. Can anyone give me some insight on the process? GPA average etc? I know I am a newbie in this application process but it's my 1st Grad Application and I am Antsy!! Good luck to everyone!

Congratulations on taking the first step ? I submitted my resume and everything requested together and about 2 weeks later received the link to complete the virtual interview. That was a little nerve-wracking as you don't know what the prerecorded questions are going to be. They were pretty standardized, they read the question and gave you I think a minute to formulate your answer within a 2-minute time frame. I got my acceptance email 9 days later.
