University of Rochester School of Nursing ABPNN January 2018

Published

Hi,

I was looking for a thread regarding the university of Rochester ABPNN 2018 and didn't find any so I made this for applying or accepted students to share their experience.

Has anyone gotten an interview and heard anything back yet?

how did your interview go? What did they ask?

Hey, thanks for starting this thread. I was looking for a ABPNN 2018 group for UR! I had my interview June 29th and it was super informal and was only asked why I was choosing UR and what made me choose nursing. The conversation lasted about 20 minutes due to the reason that I talked a lot. She seemed pleased with my responses and I felt overall really good about the interview. I was told we wouldn't hear back for a while and when we did, it would be over the phone. Have you had yours yet?

Hi!! Congrats!!

Yes I did, on the same day as you! It was also very informal and she asked me why u of r, what kind of nursing experience I had, and what my goals were, I was trying to talk as much as I could as well. I feel content with how it went.

I heard we won't hear back until about 2 months before the program starts... and only 65 students are let in.

I wish you the best of luck! Keep me updated on if you hear anything!!

Although you're right that they only accept 65 students -- only 100 are interviewed so that's somewhat a positive way to think about it. The best of luck to both of you while we all wait!

I'm visiting the nursing school in August :)

Had my interview today, and the interviewer was very open and easy to talk to - so relax and be somewhat prepared. She asked how did I hear about the school, and why did I choose it, why do I want to be a nurse, and how my career/experiences affiliate with nursing.

In my opinion, I thought it went very well but we'll see how it really went at the end of Sept.

Good luck everyone!

Hi Bhartijx4,

Any updates on when we can hear from the Admissions committee on acceptances?

Hi NomadLizzie,

Sorry for not seeing this post earlier. I did end up visiting the school - the nursing building is beautiful! However, no one in admissions seemed to be interested in giving me a tour so I ended up showing myself around. Rochester itself doesn't have too much going on for itself but theres off campus housing in walkable distance to the campus and in quaint neighborhoods and the hospital where clinical will be is fantastic and also very close to the nursing building!

Hope that helps!
