Hi guys. Wanted to start a topic/thread for those applying into the May 2016 cohort, now that the application has opened. Has anyone else noticed on the application that the 2 recommendations are no longer required? Thought this was interesting.
As for me, I'm getting ready to take the TEAS V (Aug 1st) and finishing my CNA course next week with the state exam in August. I have a few months of CNA experience in a long term adult care facility and just got a job as a CNA at a local pediatric long term care facility, which I'm looking forward to since this is the area of nursing I hope to focus on after graduating (peds.) I graduated from the Univ of Pittsburgh back in 2001 with a dual BS in Psych and Business and did most of my post bach work in clinical psych (inpatient, outpatient, step down, peds again..) Applied and was accepted to PA school back in 2002 but decided that being a PA wasn't exactly what I wanted to do so waited, got married, had kids yada yada. Here I am, mid 30s, 2 young boys, applying into UWOSH. How about you? Say hi and introduce yourself so we can get to know one another during this ride. :) :)
My interview went well. Thanks for asking:) They did tell me the same as you all have said, that they are expecting to have decisions out by the week of Thanksgiving--because they are accelerated too. One...more...week.
I have not received a survey yet, either, and it's been over a week. Who does it come from?
And, oh my, the daily all student emails are killing me too!

Ugh, I was hoping to hear this week. However, time has flown and next week will be great what with Thanksgiving and time off from work :) Plus, hopefully we'll get the news!
I just got my survey this morning Rgorski. It came from Melissa. I emailed them a couple days ago and told them a few of us hadn't received the survey. Hopefully they'll review who has and hasn't received the survey but if you didn't receive it yet and you want to then I would f/u with the ABSN Advisor.
Yeah I wouldn't plan on anything until next week. It says on their calendar that the University is closed Nov 25 and reopens Nov 30. Based on last year's May cohort, I am saying the end of next week. I just hope it is by then because I am really tired of waiting.
Maybe we'll get lucky and they'll email us at the end of today or tomorrow. *fingers crossed*
