UW Oshkosh Accelerated Program??

Published

Hey everybody out there! I recently applied to the UW Oshkosh Accelerated Online program for Oct '07. I currently live in Colorado, but am moving to Green Bay with my husband in March. We aren't moving for school, but my husband is from Wisconsin and ready to live in the Midwest again. He is also going to start his own business, whenever I am done with nursing school.

I already have a bachelor's and wanted to use that to my advantage and apply to a school that gives you credit for that work. I am really excited about this program, but nervous about the application process. Does anyone know how the online and telephone interviews are formatted?

I would really love to talk to anyone who has applied to, or been through this program. First hand experience is always so helpful!

And as a side note, (completey unrelated but I thought I'd throw it out) does anyone have advice for a good neighborhood to buy a house in Green Bay??

Thanks to everyone!

Hi Erin,

I recently applied for May 07 and am on the waiting list. I will reapply for Oct, as I think I would prefer this start date anyway so I don't have to overlap my pre req classes this semester with starting the program. The telephone interview was not bad at all...not sure what I can say...it was your typical phone interview. You're interviewed by two people, one an instructor and the other a Director....they are both real friendly and just ask you questions to ensure you're ready for such an intense program. I have heard it is crazy intense, but totally worth it. Maybe we will be in the Oct class together!! Hope this helps.!

Specializes in Peds, ER/Trauma.

Nice neighborhoods in the Green Bay area- near Southwest High School, NorthEast side of town, Villages of Howard or Bellevue, City of DePere. Crappy parts of Green Bay- downtown, neighborhoods running along both Main & Mason streets, and the "Tank" neightborhood (yes, the official name for the neighborhood is actually "Tank").
