FAU 2014 ABSN applicants

[Quendi]

I haven't seen a thread directed at applicants for this application cycle, so I figured I'd start one! Just one month left until applications open. Who's ready? :) I figure we can meet here to discuss any questions or issues with applications, provide support and feedback to fellow applicants, as well as introduce ourselves as potential future classmates! Communication is, after all, critical for all nurses.

I actually have a question to start us off. The pre-requisites listed for the program mention "College Algebra or equivalent" for science GPA calculations. In my case, I took a few more advanced mathematics courses for my degree, and I have a better grade in Calculus than I do in College Algebra. I can only chalk it up to it being my first semester in college. Does anyone know if they will count my Calc grade instead? It means the difference between a 3.8 and 3.9 for my science GPA.

My back-up is just working full-time for a year, retaking the TEAS, and reapplying to a bunch of schools. I only applied to FAU this go-round; it is the best, after all :)

Very similar to my plan. :)

Just got my acceptance email! How exciting! So glad the waiting part is over. Best of luck again to everyone, and for those on the waiting list don't lose hope. Can't wait to meet everyone April 5th. What is the dress code? Also has everyone already submitted the $200 deposit to FAU to hold your spot for general admission? What about the immunization forms? Can't believe school starts in less than 2 months!

I plan to dress business casual.
