UHV Accel BSN Spring 2011 Interview invitation

[cjeremymanuel]

I just got an email invitation to interview on 11/30 - this is great news because I finished pre-reqs and sent in the app a long time ago, and I have been waiting what seems like FOREVER to hear something from the program. I'm not really sure what to expect with this interview process - getting fitted for uniforms after interviewing? Hmm... how excited should I be about the invitation: is it final elimination or just a formality?

Another question: does anyone know what Fast Pass completion / Blue Card from Texas Board of Nursing is? I have been as vigilant as I can be about tending to all the application requirements and the like, but I have never heard of, and can't find anything from Google about a Blue Card from the Texas BON. Can someone shed some light?

Thanks in advance, Jeremy

double check on your date....i believe it is Nov 29th.

Thanks JEPF, the next day I got a letter in the US mail with the correct date of Nov 29, along with another paper for the Blue card/fingerprinting procedures. This is really exciting, but I don't wanna get too excited. I feel like I did really well - while I didn't end up with a stellar GPA with my last degree, I worked hard to get all A's in my science pre-reqs and I scored really well on the TEAS. I guess we shall soon see...

Does anyone know how will the group interview be?

Does anyone know how many actually interviewed yesterday? I heard so many different numbers thrown around and I know that quite a few did not show.

thanks

Keybutterfly,

I heard different numbers as well but I heard 90 responded to the interview invite & only 84 showed up on Monday. It was an interesting day but not sure how well they could really assess everyone there so I am nervous about how they make their final decisions. Im anxious & look forward to hearing something either way soon

They said they will start notifying people today right? Does anyone know the time frame?

[tebow]

Yoli79,

i thought at the end of this week...unless i heard wrong....last year it was on a Friday that people started getting responses....the suspense is killing me also....

were you in the group that was green? I might have met you while in the computer room waiting for the essay....

again good luck to all...

[Keybutterfly]

thanks for the responses!

[Keybutterfly]

The paper that they gave us said that they would start notifying applicants after December 1 (today). So I would say start checking email tomorrow!!

The waiting process is very draining to say the least ... Good luck everyone
