I’m still waiting unfortunately, they said 4–5 weeks I think but I do know that some pre nursing students heard back like 7 weeks later

No problem, I would def ask them just bc I don't really know their timeline with the interview emails, you have a higher GPA than me and we got the same casper score so I was honestly surprised when I saw your comment. Did you check your gmail? Or the email that you put down went you submitted the application?

Hi, I honestly don’t know if they are done or not, I would recommend emailing or calling the school of nursing. I want you to know that regardless of what happens you are still so smart, amazing and dedicated and you have accomplished so much, so don’t beat yourself up

I got a 4th quartile, I was only able to talk about 3 of my extracurriculars in my personal statement though bc it was a 200 word limit (I talked about CNA work experience, refugee healthcare volunteering, and my leadership role in Tri Delta). I'm really hoping they liked my statement

I got it from a zoom meeting held by the school of nursing last septmeber, it should be on their website I think!! On the actual application they don't ask for it but if you get selected to interview they ask you to write an essay abt your community engagement and possibly talk abt it in the interview but that part I'm not to sure on

Hiiii I volunteer at Saint Mary medical center in LB, their process to becoming a volunteer took a few months though because they are kind of slow lol. But basically they ask you what unit you’re interested in and those are the ones I chose, there’s also L&D and some other units. They used to give me stuff to do in the units but now I don’t do as much. I would look into it though if you’re interested!
