FSW Spring 2018

Published

It's a bit early, I know. I just wanted to start a thread for all of those looking down the road planning to apply to FSW this fall for the spring 2018 program start..

I'm planning on applying to the Charlotte campus for the Evening/Weekend (ANEW) schedule format.

What campus are you planning on applying to?

What classes are you trying to finish up before applying in Sept/Oct?

What program schedule format will you be choosing (Daytime or evening/weekend)?

Did you take the TEAS VI exam and how did you do?

I look forward to the discussion over the next few months!!

I went to an information session about the program at Lee campus a few weeks ago. They said the ANEW programs takes about 18 months to complete since it includes summer. I''m coming from FGCU

I appreciate you bringing this up.

I contacted one of the directors and she told me that the ANEW schedule is under review and that they are not yet certain which semesters they will be running through. There is a possibility that it will take the full 24 months to complete the ANEW or it could take only 18 if they run through the summer as Walk823 described. They plan to make a final decision sometime near the end of this semester...This was all news to me...haha

Thanks for clarifying. If there is a change will it be only the ANEW or both programs?

She only mentioned that the ANEW schedule was under review, so I believe it's just the ANEW schedule that is up in the air right now..To my understanding, the traditional schedule will take 20 months to complete if started in the fall and 24 months to complete if started in the spring since it doesn't go through the summer.

Thanks for the update. I would've signed up for the ANEW if it didn't include Saturdays.

Did anyone have complications with the admissions process? I submitted residency and my college transcript since August, but they're stating they don't have it. It's just frustrating, because they either don't respond to emails or take about 3 days to respond.

I don't plan to apply to the program until Fall 2018 but could someone give me a little insight on the ANEW schedule? Or know where I can find the schedule online?

Hi everyone! I've been looking at this thread for months and now I am finally deciding to write! I just applied for spring 2018 traditional schedule for the lee campus! Collier is my second choice. Just wanted to let everyone know!

Hello all,

2nd semester ANEW student here.

I just wanted to give you all a little insight into what the ANEW program is like.

As it's been mentioned, all of our lecture is online and we are required to be on campus one night out of the week from 5:30p-8:30p. Sim lab is the first few Saturdays of the semester and then either Sat or Sun clinical (your choice). You must be self motivated and on top of your due dates or you will not make it. The class is a mixture of young and old, experienced and inexperienced, people with kids, full time jobs etc...

If you are a self motivated learner then you will do great, if not, then I recommend the Traditional program.

The issue with the scheduling and the separate campuses simply comes down to having the professors to teach the courses. It is much easier to have the professors collaborate at the same campus with all of us meeting at one time than to have several professors at different campuses for only a few students. I'm sure they will face the same issue with the spring ANEW program so just be prepared.

If you are iffy about your points then give the TEAS your all, it will make up for what you lack in GPA.

The application will be closing in less than a week! :up: I honestly can't wait to receive a response. Lee is my first choice, but I chose Collier as my second choice. For some reason the application only let me choose an answer one time. I plan to live on campus so I'm not sure how I'll drive 45 mins everyday if I get accepted for Collier. :nailbiting:

Hey Chel! I applied for the traditional Lee campus as well. We could be classmates. Also looking at previous threads, your stats are not bad at all. Here's to hoping we both get in :)
