Western Carolina University ABSN Fall 2021

[Lefler Caroline]

Hey everyone! I wanted to start this in case anyone else is planning on applying to WCU's ABSN program! I would love to connect with anyone that is going through the application process.

@FutureMurse I haven't heard, either! Maybe today...

I know I have been so anxious LOL. I keep refreshing my email!

Wow, I'm so glad I found this thread. I've been freaking out since I haven't heard much of anything and the deadline was almost a month ago! I hope we all hear back soon!

Hi All,

Has anyone had their interview yet? I have one scheduled for next week and am super nervous. This is an extremely competitive program and I know that we got an email saying that they got more applicants than ever. Advice welcome.

I had my interview earlier this week...It wasn't anything too crazy...it was only about 15 mins and they asked me pretty generic questions...they said they are only accepting 35 students into the program and that we should know some time in March about decisions

@FutureMurse thanks for the update! Anyone know how many applicants they got this year, or how many got interviews? Good luck to everyone!!

Has anyone gotten their acceptance yet or have any idea when we are supposed to hear back?

[Hillary Foster]

I have not heard from the ABSN program, and I'm dying with anticipation/anxiety. I am hoping they let us know this week. I got accepted to the RIBN program through WCU(SWCC) but this is my back-up and need to let them know by Friday. If someone knows a date, I hope they will post it.

Right there with you all! I’ve gotta know.

So many life choices are hinging on whether or not I get in...absolutely ready to know LOL!

I just got my acceptance email an hour ago! Check your emails!!

I just got accepted as well! Good luck everyone!
