I was just wondering if any of you could answer this question for me. If/ When you are invited to the information session I heard you write an essay shortly after, are those people who are invited guaranteed a interview? or do they continue to narrow the group further? Thanks in advance :)

Hey! I am currently in semester 2 of UFV's nursing program, I started in Sept. This time last year I was you guys and I remember how anxious I was! Last year what they did was two waves of information session invites. The first wave from what we gathered in hindsight were the "top applicants" as far as grades went. They got their invite and attended the information session 1st. The second wave of email invites came about a week after, and (again, they never told us, this is just speculation on my part) it seemed to be those who didn't necessary have straight A's but had extensive volunteer/work experience (i.e care aids, paramedics etc). Everyone who got an invite to the information session completed the written part of the application (trust me, its not an essay, more like 3 short answer questions) and got an interviews. About 100 people got invites, and 48 of us got in, so once you get a invite, your down to about a 50/50 chance. This is how things worked last year, I have no idea if they are using the same format, or what they may have changed, so don't quote me on it! Good luck to you all! The program is A LOT of work (don't let the 1st month of 1st semester fool you! ) but definitely worth it!

Also does anyone know what kind of questions to expect at the interview?

neverland · Mar 7, 2015

Haha really? Smart! I so wish I had finished A&P prior to starting the program it is seriously going to make your life so much easier when you start! I had 3 As and a B and a lot of hours between volunteering abroad and locally as well as a job in health care.

Yeah I sit with cara! I remember the interview questions being pretty straight forward easy questions. What's a leader to you what do you do on your spare time how are you paying for school how are you going to balance other things going on in your life. How do you deal with stress. How often are you sick. Do you have a car, or how are you planning on getting to school. Lol just a few I remember
