Same here, I also submitted in July as well. They did say that if we aren't sent an interview invite for BSN/MSN we would be considered for the BSN 2nd Degree program so there is another way to get into the program if not BSN/MSN. I hope it is good news as well!

I've been so anxious myself. Good luck to everyone. Hopefully we will all be reporting back this Tuesday :)

So when will the FNP hear back?

The email we got literally says early February...................

I had already interviewed so I guess that's why I didn't get this email. Thanks!

Yeah futureAGPCNP! I was about to post and ask if you got invited as well. Are you planning on visiting or doing the interview by phone? I'm kind of torn as I would love to visit the campus but December flights are expensive and I have work obligations as well.

Was so thrilled and humbled to receive an interview invitation! I'm so incredibly happy :) Congrats to all who received good news today!

@TangoDeux I actually booked a flight out to Philly a few weeks ago on Southwest Airlines to lock in a good rate and because I'd be able to cancel if I didn't get an interview! I have a couple friends who did the phone interview and they got in :) I'm personally more comfortable and confident in my abilities to communicate who I am in-person so I had no doubt I'd choose the in person interview if I was offered one.

@rls2018 Nice congrats!! Which specialty? :)

Yes, totally agree with you about being more comfortable talking in person rather then on the phone. I also think I convey my thoughts better when I am actually in front of an interviewer as well.

I was no where near as confident about my chances of getting an interview so I didn't want to jinx it by buying a ticket before I was offered an interview slot. I did think about it when the notification about dates and deadlines came through from FC but ultimately decided to hold off until I was offered an interview which I now have! I'm excited (if you can't tell lol!)

I will start checking on flights and places to stay and see if it makes sense for me to go in person.
