Hello. Just checking if anyone else is submitting their application for FAU's FNP program for fall 2015? I'm curious how many applicants they generally receive each cycle and how many they accept.
To be on the safe side I went ahead & completed everything weeks ago because I didn't want that to prevent me from being selected. A while back I called the nursing department because I was a bit curious as to why they would have us do such an extensive background check without being accepted & the gentlemen I spoke too stated the dean told him if it wasn't completed the applicant wouldn't be chosen. I don't know how true that was. Maybe someone else can speak on that. Even when we received our email notification saying that we were recommended for the program it stated that it should be complete.

I think they only wanted us to do the background check and fingerprints, not all the vaccine stuff (I guess we do that over the summer before school starts). BUT I did email someone just to clarify and she never wrote back, so I'm really not sure. The vaccination stuff shouldn't matter as an applicant, only if you're admitted, so that's why I didn't complete it because I solely did the background check. Anyway------- you're both right, I'm trying to keep my head up, but I just feel like this is the right choice for me and I'm so ready to advance my career right now! I agree that I wasn't ready three years ago, but now I am! But you know what, we havent been rejected, let's stay positive!!!! I have a feeling that we will hear one way or another these next few days. :)
