Accelerated BSN at UNF and JU

U.S.A. Florida

Published

I have applied to the accelerated BSN program at both UNF and JU for summer '08. Has anyone heard good or bad feedback for either program? Is anyone currently attending either program and would like to give their opinion about what they feel is special about their program? I have had an interview already with JU and now waiting for an interview invite from UNF:bugeyes:. I would like to be well informed before I make a choice, if I have a choice. :wink2: Good luck to all that are still waiting on letters.

Hi,

Yes I am from Gainesville. I have only been to Jacksonville twice and don't really know the area at all. I will come there sometime next week to see about housing, financial aid, etc. I received our packet from Chris yesterday. I need to get all of the stuff done. Are you attending the orientation? I plan to attend. From reading other peoples posts, I think we have class mon-thurs which make me very happy; I can hopefully go home on the weekends. Also we don't have classes the first 3 weeks of August. I really like our schedule when I compare it with other schools! Anyways I hope everything works out great. Have you heard a lot about the program?

I am in Gainesville as well. I do plan on attending orientation. I have been contacting the financial aid and admissions office to figure out how to pay for everything. Yea i agree, I am loving the schedule as well. I just met someone in the program now through a friend and I know someone else that got accepted into the same program.

They said they really like the program and she said it does get tough at times just like any nursing program, but everything is doable. I still don't know what im doing about housing, but I have a friend sending me information on different apartment buildings. I still have been trying to contact the financial aid office to see how everything will be paid for.
