UW Oshkosh Accelerated Online (October 2011 cohort)

Published

I just scheduled my phone interview for the October 2011 cohort. Has anyone done the same? Has anyone been throught the phone interview before? What kind of questions do they ask? How much should I prepare?

Hi Andy and Jaime-

I'm not sure what area I want to shoot for yet. I work on a Cardio floor (as a NA) right now and I love it, but I think the OR sounds exciting too. I'm hoping clinicals will give me a better idea. But that's the beauty of nursing- we will be able to choose from many specialties! Obviously, Andy, you are "goin for peds". I think that would be a lot of fun. Any specific reason why you want to work with kids?

Hey Guys!

As of right now, my plan is to shoot through to my DNP in Midwifery as quickly as possible! That being said, I am going into this program with an open mind and allow myself to experience and appreciate the beauty of each specialty as I come to it. I expect that God will give me a pretty good indication of where he wants me to be, as He's the one who aimed me toward nursing and got me in to this crazy competitive program in the first place! My interests other than L&D are OR, Trauma, and Transplant.

I'm so excited to get going!!

Hey everyone!! Sorry to join the conversation so late. I'm also in the October cohort. I'm very excited to start the program and meet all of you!!

Jaime-Do you currently live in La Crosse? I got my degree from UW-La Crosse and I've lived here for the last 10 years.

Heathbar~

I don't currently live in LaCrosse, but I'm there a lot! Maybe around exam time I might find myself there and we can have a study group!!

Are you guys on Facebook? I think we should start a group so we can all get to know each other. If you guys want to find me and request my friendship (Jaime Adler, the pic is me and my niece in front of a sewing machine), I will start and group and add us all to it. Let me know!

Also-did any of you start Medical Terminology or Math for Meds yet? I started both and it's getting me pretty excited to start the program! Hope you are all well!!

Hey Guys,

I started a Facebook page because I didn't think there was one yet. It's pretty plain, but at least it's a way to communicate.

Hey thanks Sarah, but I think actually what we need is a Group rather than a Page. A group allows us to better communicate, and it won't be open for the general public to see. I can go ahead and set one up if you want!

Thanks!
