  1. Hi all, I have been fruitlessly doing searches on Penn's and Jeff's NP programs and have not been able to find enough opinions to adequately compare the two. I am specifically interested in hearing about their acute care programs (leaning towards ped...
  2. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    I think the FACT and 2-yr uniforms are different because I'm almost positive last year's FACT class had the same uniforms as us. Here is what they look like: http://landau.com/dept.aspx?gp=women&dsp=Women's%20Whites&pro=1909 The shirt - eh. ...
  3. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    Sneakers are allowed, but whatever shoes you choose have to be leather and all white. I don't know how picky they'd be if you chose a sneaker that has, say, some silver on the side, although I'd imagine they'd notice. Students must be head-to-toe w...

    Glad I could help :)
  5. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    Hi Apoptotic, No, you do not have to go to the hospital the night before to write up care plans. I had heard many programs do this but so far, we have not had to (I assume because our schedule is so full already that would be nearly impossible). (N...
  6. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    Yes, you pay the FACT tuition in two installments. We just received a tentative schedule for the rest of the year. In case anyone is interested in exactly how things are structured, here is the schedule for the current year. The quarters run into o...
  7. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    I'll try to answer these questions. Not sure about the rest of the program (they give us info at the last minute usually so we have no idea how the next quarters will go), but for the first quarter: we started the last week of May, will have our las...
  8. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    No problem! I'm glad to help. :) Depends on the person if he/she uses a study group. I know some people who study together regularly every week. The group I tend to study with -- we usually study on our own and then get together right before an...

    Apoptotic, regarding the PDA, they strongly recommended the Palm TX. You can pretty much get any one you want; the only thing is Jeff IT only supports certain models. I know classmates of mine have all different PDAs and no one has had any problems...
  10. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    Sure thing. Pharm book is Pharmacology for Nursing Care Sixth Edition (Lehne). Patho and Nursing Management use the same text: Medical-Surgical Nursing Seventh Edition (Lewis). If you decide to do the program, they make you buy a book bundle with ...
  11. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    Hi again, I currently have three 8-hour clinicals per week. I'm really going to try to get two 12s next quarter because I feel like I have less time than people who have 2/week. I'm on the 7-3 M/T/W rotation. We usually get out a little late, so by t...
  12. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    Thanks for the info sunshine. I didn't realize they don't keep track. They made such a big deal out of the weekend thing I figured they would stick us with one sooner or later. AtomicWoman, Regarding the program, I am very happy with it. I'm glad ...
  13. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    I'm in the FACT program now. Just wanted to add to what sunshine wrote. At the beginning of a clinical rotation, you are given a sheet with all of the different rotation units/times/days and asked to give your top three choices. The 8 hour rotatio...
  14. Drexel ACE vs Jefferson APW

    Hi Nova11, Here are some links to threads on Drexel's and Jeff's programs that may help give you some more info (if you do a search, you'll find more, but these seemed most helpful): Drexel: https://allnurses.com/forums/f170/drexel-s-ace-program-1498...
  15. Jeff vs Penn NP programs in Philadelphia

    Forgot to mention I'm specifically interested in the FNP programs if that makes a difference in the answers to my questions. Thanks!
