FAMU Nursing Spring 2016

Published

Anybody applying to FAMU's nursing program for the spring?

Hey everyone !! Good luck on applying, hope you all get in ;) I was admitted in FAMU SON in fall, be prepared to spend money upon being accepted, and enjoy your free time now because once you get started you'll wish you had more free time. It's a lot of work so make sure you work on time management skills! Also it's not the "luck of the draw" that gets you into the program. Your gpa is not the most important factor but it is considered, how well you do on your interview is important and also if you have some experience in the field that helps too. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask me :)

I have a sister at FAMU too but she's on the dorm...I pray it all works out. If it's meant to be it will happen! :)

What was the interview like, was it intense?

Hey! I'm reapplying this semester as well.

The interview was intense for me.They showed me no emotion and I was already nervous as it is. But as far as the questions they were straight forward questions.

We didn't have to get medical stuff redone again if we are reapplying right because they already have it on file? Just want to make sure.

Only if they are expired but to be on the safe side just have your doctor rewrite everything on your new application. Its better to be safe than sorry.

Just include everything if you can even though they have it on file.

I decided as a reapplicant to just do what they requested I figure you can look at it two ways ... Either go over and beyond and they be appreciative or go over and beyond and they think you can't follow directions ... I know I just did my physical and etc in April so I only did what was asked: application, passport, transcripts, and new essay. And when I say luck of the draw I mean that yes there is a selection process but you aren't going to be able to tell how that process impacts the whole because you will see a wide variation... You just have to realize and be comfortable in knowing that though this may be your option it's not the only option and don't let it deter you from the ultimate goal ... So I stand by my previously aforementioned statement with it being the luck of the draw and hopefully this drawing is more favorable than the last or maybe even a low amount of applications will play a part either way I'm optimistic but I have a plan regardless as should all others

Applications are in so Let the countdown begin!!!! Am I the only person who is excited??

Hi everybody.

I am currently a pre nursing student at on of the community colleges in Chicago. I am taking Bio 121 and Chemistry 121. I have difficulties in Biology since my English is weak( I have taken ESL100, and I have one more ESL to take), and my grades are not so well. So, my question is when I will apply for nursing program, do I have to have high grades?

Hey how are you! To be honest I am not sure. Is the ESL courses included in your GPA? If so, try to receive high grades because you do want your GPA to be high because this program is competitive. Any other questions do not hesitate to ask.
