  1. UCF Traditional and Accelerated BSN-2014

    Well first semester is the most expensive.. textbooks can run up to $1000 if you buy them brand new and in the package that the bookstore sells. The required ati package is $408, but I'm pretty sure the price goes up another $50 if you don't pay for ...
  2. UCF Traditional and Accelerated BSN-2014

    Congrats! I'm a current BSN student at UCF. To answer some questions: For the transfer student orientation- same as what was previously said, you go to a room and hear some speakers, and split out into colleges (ie college of nursing) where you are f...

    I also recommend getting the teas study guide by ati to use, it helped me study!
  5. UCF Traditional and Accelerated BSN-2014

    Clinicals are literally all over central Florida. There's a lot to factor in if you want to live by campus; transportation and the cost for rent is higher closer to the school. I don't want to tell you what they asked us in the interviews since we di...
  6. UCF Traditional and Accelerated BSN-2014

    I can't say for sure, they will also factor in the cumulative GPA and how you do at the interview. If you are invited for an interview you need to take it seriously. For us last year about 180 people out if over 400 applicants were invited to intervi...

    Background check is completed before acceptance.
  9. UCF Traditional and Accelerated BSN-2014

    I'm a current student that was accepted last year. Pre-req GPA is most important! They want you to have a 4.0 in those to be considered competitive. I scored below 85 on teas (and a lot of people accepted scored below 85). The cutoff for your group d...
  10. Starting NS in January!

    I started in Aug 2013. Good luck to all of you! For fundamentals, make sure you know the rationale behind the concepts and the associated nursing interventions & diagnoses. Health assessment was pretty black & white for us, just practice your...

  13. When does/did your semester end and how did you do?

    4 A's and 1 B
  14. Are textbooks this expensive????

    Yes! Textbooks are crazy expensive. I have networked with seniors in my program and buy my books from them and they will beat the lowest used prices I find and even more! I would also recommend checking out your local craigslist, a lot of people sell...
