I didn't get to interview they just sent a letter saying they couldn't offer me admission. My stats aren't competitive so I'm disappointed but not surprised.  I'm applying everywhere while working on CAA prerequisite so I know it'll happen one way or the other.

Thanks for all the support. Good luck everyone 🍀

Mine application still says is currently under review 😩

Hey Guys,

I submitted my application on September 1st, was invited to schedule an interview on October 15th, and ended up interviewing on November 18th. The interview was mainly emotional intelligence based with just myself and faculty members, however they may ask you critical care type questions that tailor to your experience. Overall, they are pretty welcoming. I still have not heard back in regard to my interview status. Best of luck to everyone!

Specializes in ICU.
