University of Rochester ABPNN Sept 2015

KayGee · Apr 22, 2015

My interview for ABPNN was more of a "this is what you're going to be doing in your clinicals", "these are housing options", and things like the structure of the program and how it works. I wasn't really asked any questions about myself, I was told "what I'll be doing".

I don't know if that's a good sign or a bad sign, it sounds like everyone else's interviews were like a classic sort of interview.

I wouldn't worry! I believe there are four faculty members giving interviews so it's likely they have different approaches.

Mine was also like that, as in telling me what to expect and what I'd be doing. Just like you, I'm not sure if it was a bad thing or good thing but I hope we will all start hearing from them in May! I seriously can't wait any longer!! Lol

Hey everyone has anyone applied to their masters program? Any and all information about the application process would be helpful.

How is everyone doing with the waiting? I wonder where the other applicants are for this programâ€¦ there doesn't seem like there are many of us active on here.

I'm waiting on NYU and Rochester and received a rejection letter from another school...still waiting on more though too! Nursing schools seem to take forever on admission decisions. I'd really love to go to Rochester though, it stands out amongst the other schools I've applied to and I'd be proud to go there!

The wait is driving me nuts. Especially since I'd be moving from California, I'm antsy to hear in case it's a yes, I can get started on living situations and loans. Ohhh, the loans. lol

I'm waiting on NYU and Rochester too! I'm also so antsy and just thinking about the loans gives me anxiety haha

Well I applied for the September start date but they accepted me for May. I couldn't start in May because they called me only 3 weeks before May 18th and I couldn't finish everything in time. I was told I would go back into the pool for September but I haven't heard anything yet. I'm starting to have a few doubts but I'm not even sure if they have started making the calls yet. Has anyone heard anything yet from Rochester? I was told they start calls in May and into June.

KayGee · May 25, 2015

No, I haven't heard anything. I'm pretty antsy though, especially since I'm coming from California. That's a big move to make within 3 months, especially since I plan on driving! I've considered calling just to curb my curiosity but I don't want to be "that guy" who bugs them. lol

I'm super hopeful but at the same time, I think they only admit 64 students so I'm trying not to get my hopes up too high. They liked me enough to interview, but my college GPA from my teen years is dragging me down - I had a "C's get degrees" mentality, which I didn't realize would hurt me later. I hope they take my most recent GPA into consideration, when I finally wised up!

KayGee · Jun 1, 2015

Well, it's June!

We should be hearing decisions soon!

I'm nervous, I really want to get in to Rochester.

Mermsies · Jun 1, 2015

I know! Each day I've been holding my phone and taking it wherever I have been going.. Ugh next week will be 12 weeks since my interview so I'm starting to worry now. I know I shouldn't have, but I put all my cards into Rochester and I hope I didn't miss my chance becaus do couldn't pull things together for May.. But so far I haven't heard of anyone getting a phone call or getting anything in the mail.

It looks like last years cohort for September heard the first week of June (that's this week aaaahhh!)
