Anyone hear about petitions?

Does anyone know what time they usually would call? I'm beyond anxious at this point...

I think it would just be random depending on where you are on the waitlist & how many spots they have available... but I would assume not after 5. For petitions, it's an email not a phone call.

Do you get notified regardless of getting in or not?

Well..."at this time there aren't any spots open, with emphasis on 'at this time'." I have to call back Wednesday for my final answer...

When I petitioned last year, I got wait listed and they never notified me about getting off/ where I was...you kinda just have to wait around and then if classes start then you know you didn't get off. I petitioned again this year but I'm not expecting anything- especially since you just said there's no spots open for originally wait listed people. I applied to a program in south Alabama and you can get in state tuition- it's right on the border of Alabama and Florida. You should look into it if you don't have any other options...they have fall and spring start dates and you can ask them to consider you for their traditional program if try don't accept you in their accelerated.

I've been wait listed for ucf also, not trying to go too far. But thank you

Petition denied. I guess what I'll do is try USF for Fall and then once I get my BSN, try UF for grad school. Maybe they'll like me better then! I sure hope so, because I've always wanted to go to Florida. Good luck to everyone that got in and everyone that's waiting for a spot to open up!

Gator Love, which university is that? The one in Alabama.

University of South Alabama. I've heard good things- I know someone who just completed their accelerated degree there and already has a job on a pediatric floor where she wanted and my boyfriends cousin is also currently in their traditional program and she loves it. It's worth looking in to if you don't mind moving- it literally borders Florida so it's not that far...and it's beautiful there. Deadline for their end of July class is April 1st but they take late applications and their application isn't difficult- just a resume and some papers to fill out and sign.

Can someone tell me when classes start?
