Thread for those applying to UM FNP Fall 2017

[jcort91]

Well I recalled them today to ask how they do the process for selecting those to do interviews and they told me as they receive applications they'll start to make decisions on who they want to interview. Which my guess is I'm not being considered since I applied back in October and there's already been someone asked to interview and they applied in November. I wish you all the luck guys! I just hope they give me a reason! But I doubt but please share interview questions

I recommend everyone double check your Nursing CAS transcript file. I saw a mistake on mine which drastically changed my GPA, I emailed and they corrected it, looks much better now.

Just received an invitation for an interview, so nervous! Any advice from those who have already interviewed?

[jcort91]

I got my letter of denial a few days ago! wish you all of luck and hope you all update us here for future references!

Did they say how long it will take to hear back from the interview? I felt like it did not go too well. Mine was about 10 minutes... anyone else have it that short?

[jcort91]

What kind of questions did they ask? I'm sorry to hear you didn't think it well but why? I'm sure they made it short depending on how many they've already done or had to do

Hey why do you feel it didn't go well? The interview appts are only 20 min apart. So the interview is meant to be 10-15 min long. What questions did they ask you?

[jcort91]

Anyone willing to share info on interview questions?

For those that have interviewed or are scheduled for an interview did you apply for the FNP program? Anyone apply to the AGPC program?

[Mac5ba]

I was told to know the role of an FNP, have a 5 year plan, and some clinical questions!

[Mp1732rn]

Had interview today. It was a professor and director interviewing. Both very nice. Asked why FNP? Why UM? Where do you see yourself 5 years from now? Strengths and weaknesses? And clinical questions was pathophysiology of CHF? They go into further questions depending on your answers to questions.

I was pretty nervous throughout the interview and i think it showed. Hopefully they overlook that.

interview was about 10 min long.

any one else interview yet?

[FNPSgoals]

I had the exact same situation and questions... only they did not ask me further into my answers.. they sat quietly and went on to the next which made me even more nervous :/ I don't know if that is a good thing or bad thing. Well I guess we'll know soon! Did you apply for acute care?
