   I got swamped at work and couldn’t post earlier, but I was accepted for AG ACNP track part time! I got the email late morning. Clearly they are working through everything in batches.

   About an hour ago. I had a separate question r/t my application that she had not followed up on, so I just emailed her about it this morning again...and of course asked when we could expect decisions.

   Y’all are welcome! I’m glad some of you found it helpful, tbh it was helpful to me to type it out and read it through as well. It’s so easy to lose sight of reality and logic when you’re invested in the outcome...at least it is for me! Ma...

   herestohoping replied to TinyNurse18's topic in NP Students

   Hi all, just lurking here since I hadn’t heard anything yet...glad to see I’m in good company. I have been a student and employee at UF and Shands for 10+ years, including nursing school, and all I can say is...this is all fairly typical. E...

   herestohoping replied to Minimalka's topic in Florida

   Yes, you will follow the UF academic calendar and can expect to have all official holidays off. You will probably have an evening clinical at some point, and there's not really a way to anticipate when it will be (unfortunately). The schedule they pu...

   I would definitely review as much A&P as you can. It will be tremendously helpful when you take pathophysiology - it's one of the harder courses in the program and having your A&P down pat will make it less painful. The anatomy part will also...

   herestohoping replied to Minimalka's topic in Florida

   I posted a little bit about this earlier in the thread too, but the first semester is pretty tough. Expect obligations (classes, clinicals, community experiences, labs, etc.) about 3-4 days per week, but they *try* to keep your Fridays free. They typ...

   herestohoping replied to Minimalka's topic in Florida

   You should still receive a rejection email. I think this is something that happened a couple of cycles ago also, in which some folks simply didn't get emails. Try to get in touch with Kenneth, but be aware that it will probably take a bit to get back...

   We have a pretty big HSC library that you share with all of their other health professions. Usually there are plenty of places to study, but we don't have a program-specific area. I am a "study at home alone" type, so I'm probably not the best judge ...

10. UF Accelerated BSN, Summer 2018

    herestohoping replied to Minimalka's topic in Florida

    I have actually enjoyed the program overall, and feel like I will be pretty well prepared to take my boards and start my nursing career. That said, there are certainly some bureaucratic issues you'll likely have to deal with: often you will not know ...

    Thanks! I was assigned to Gainesville, which I selected in my application.

    herestohoping replied to Minimalka's topic in Florida

    I went and talked to Kenneth Wynn, and there was an error in their calculation of my GPA - to the tune of almost an entire grade point. My application was re-reviewed and added to the wait list, and I was offered a spot on the day that all accepted a...

    We haven't heard anything about it on the GNV campus, so I think it was a Jax professor who told their students about it.

    herestohoping replied to Minimalka's topic in Florida

    Current student here - they don't have a policy against the use of social media (just to be smart about it and remember you're representing the college), and in fact each cohort has a private Facebook group. For the GNV cohort that graduates this sum...

    herestohoping replied to Zeemud's topic in School Programs

    I don't think they send any notice of rejection until after September 30th. I received my participant email today, so they are definitely working through applications. Here are my dates for reference: Credit check: 7/24 Finalist notification: 8/11 Co...
