I did and I did not get a response either. Try to keep your head up, maybe the waitlist will come through for us. 

I was just offered a spot yesterday and interviewed in January. I applied for the first deadline and first heard back in late November to schedule an interview for Jan/Feb. So seems like they are still offering spots, don't lose hope!

I was supposed to interview Jan 6th but it got postponed till Jan 23 for snow

Specializes in PICU.

Did anyone who applied in dec get feedback? Or an email? 
 

I applied Dec 10th 

Got waitlisted as well.  So if this second campus gets approved, will this be the waitlist? 

can you give any examples of the questions they asked? I heard its mostly EI but was wondering if you remembered any specifics!

Does anyone else still have an app that has a "complete" status? I haven't heard anything! My app was fully complete mid November.

Me but I did apply a month after you. 

Specializes in PICU.

I'm trying to stay positive but I feel like I applied too late and there's no spots left. Jeff is very popular due to their interviews being pretty easier than most of the schools in the area. 
 

my one coworker who has only 1 year, no CCRN  and no leadership stuff & got an interview (I think she knows someone on the faculty) and she got in. But she applied early super early. I think applying early soon as they open the apps gives you a BIG advantage with Jeff 

Has anyone heard anything yet? I applied in January, my application still says complete. I emailed the program director but haven't heard anything yet
