Objectives: The objectives of this descriptive study were to 1) determine the interviewing committes’ and nursing student applicants’ satisfaction on the Multiple Mini interview (MMI), 2) determine parents/guardians’ satisfaction on motivation activity, and 3) study the disclaim rate of the eligible nursing student applicants, academic year 2012. Methods: The sample of this study consisted of the interviewers, students and guardians who passed the exam and were eligible for the interview session, Institute of Nursing (IN), academic year 2012, Suranaree University of Technology (SUT). Total of 151 respondents answered the questionnaire. The tools used for this study comprised of 1) Interview Activity of Multiple Mini interview (MMI), 2) Motivation Activity for guardian and who have the right of interview, 3) Satisfaction rating scale questionnaire of MMI, 4) Satisfaction rating scale questionnaire (1 = least satisfy, 5 = most satisfy) interviewing for committee of MMI and, 5) Satisfaction rating scale questionnaire of guardian for motivation Activity.

Data analysis: Data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics. Results: Students satisfied with the MMI interview at the highest level (Mean=4.76, S.D.=0.48). Guardians satisfied with the motivate activities at the highest level (Mean=4.74, S.D. = 0.45). The interviewers satisfied with the MMI interview at highest level (Mean=4.74, S.D. = 0.45). Based on record, out of 48 eligible students, there were 18 candidates (37.50%) declined to study in Nursing. It is a decreasing rate compare to 2010 academic year (54.17%). As following the all 18 disclaimers, it was found that 72.22% chose to study at other institutes. The reasons were 1) close to hometown (33.33%), 2) IN, SUT was newly established and has had no graduate students yet (16.67%), therefore; they were not confident about the secure job being offered, and 3) they were offered scholarships by Colleges of Nursing under the Ministry of Public (55.56%). Recommendations: The study on the predictive factors on the enrollment in the Bachelor of Nursing Science Program is recommended.
