Fall 2014 VC/UCF Concurrent Program

Published

Hey Everyone!

I have been browsing the forums and I have not seen any threads about the Fall 2014 Valencia/UCF concurrent program. Did anyone else here apply? I finished my application yesterday.

My stats are:

Science GPA: 4.0 (substituted CHM for BSC Fundamentals of Biology I)

Pre-Req overall: 3.9 (I'm assuming Pre-Req GPA means the 8 classes combined, yes?)

A.A December 2013 overall GPA: 3.8

Teas 84.7% (My strongest scores were Science and Math, English and Grammar were both ok/average)

I retook the TEAS to get a better English/Reading score, and I scored just a little bit higher this time around. English is my second language so I always read things twice (not a good thing when you're taking a timed test, lol), so I ran out of time on the Reading section. (I did get a good score on the ones that I was able to answer though!)

The context cues and word context were very hard too, I spent 3-5 minutes trying to figure out the words. (It ALWAYS came down to two choices!)

It's frustrating scoring in the 90's in both Science and Math, but scoring in the low 80's and mid 70's in grammar. I read that a lot of people don't score very high in the Science portion, but make up the score by scoring great in Reading and Grammar. I guess mine is the other way around.

Anyone else? :angrybird1:

Hi embt88!

That is great that you did so well on the science and math portion. I didn't do so well on the science section. I did much better on the other three sections. I also applied for the Valencia concurrent program for the Fall of 2014. Your Gpa, and TEAS scores look really good. I'm sure you have a great chance at getting accepted. I also substituted Biology for Chemistry but have decided to take it this summer just in case. From what I understand it is really needed in the program. Do you know if the two year waiting list applies to the concurrent program as well?

Hi Ag1121,

I plan to take basic chem I and organic chem I & II during the last two semesters of nursing, I think we'll be fine without it for now but it never hurts to start early :)

No the two year waiting list does not apply to the concurrent program, only for the generic ASN that Valencia offers. The wait time is going to kill me, lol.

I applied to the Valencia/UCF concurrent program for the fall as well!

Good! It looks like quite a few people applied to the SSC/UCF concurrent program according to the other thread. I hope you all get in :) just a matter of patience now!

That's really good to know! I also applied to the SSC/UCF concurrent program. Now it is just wait and see. I hope I get into at least one.

I am happy wherever I end up! Good luck to all! I keep hearing that SSC/UCF finds out on Friday?

Yes, I heard that as well about SSC/UCF. That seems a little soon to me but maybe I'm wrong. I thought it was 6-8 wks not 4-6. I'm not going to complain if it comes sooner though!:laugh:

Did anyone get an email from UCF saying that there are unfinished requirements on the Valencia side?

Nothing here.

What requirements did they mention?

Did it actually say that you are missing something? I received an email from UCF on the 14th that I thought was more of a general reminder of the requirements.

They just said it had to do with the Valencia application process. But I submitted everything which makes me so worried! :/
