Advice & Insight From Nursing Interview Specialists
All applicants for the BSN at West Coast University must submit a completed application to the admissions department, as well as approved documentation of high school graduation – if from abroad you must ensure that they have been approved. You must ensure that you participate in the admissions interview, which is compulsory at this school. Applicants are evaluated on either their undergraduate degree GPA if they have more than 18 postsecondary credits, or their high school GPA if they have less than 18 postsecondary credits. If you are applying as a nurse, you must have proof of your current licensure. You must also then achieve an acceptable score based on the combination of GPA and an entrance examination. Further information can be found on the West Coast University site. As an overview, ‘BSN applicants will have a maximum of two attempts, a week apart, to successfully pass the admissions exam. If an applicant does not pass the admissions exam after two attempts, he or she must wait a period of 6 months to retest and must provide proof of remediation.’
You should expect a traditional-style interview. It will be arranged by a university admissions advisor if you are applying to the BSN program from high school or university, or it will be arranged by the Program Dean or Director if you are looking to enter the RN to BSN program. Bear this information in mind, as the level of question you might expect will clearly differ from one interview type to the other.

The university boasts that its ‘student-centric’ approach to teaching means that there are multiple starts throughout the year rather than one set start – classes commence every ten weeks. The BSN program for high school leavers and university students takes 39 months to complete.
The following are aimed at those applying directly to the BSN, rather than those converting from RN to BSN (who should expect a tougher interview).
