So far I think it is possible and quite a bit of people do work while in the program too. We have lectures Monday from 8 am to 4 pm and Wednesdays are lab that can start at 8 am until 3 p.m. We just had some observational clinicals that lasted for the first month and is assigned so depends on whether you have them Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday.

Cocoa! I've been following this discussion but just never posted anything until now

I just logged back into the castblebranch website and saw that it was all completed and under 'eligible for placement' it said completed which meant they had checked it and I was good

Just checked today and they got my fingerprints and everything :)

Here are the advantages and disadvantages I always battled over between UCF and HCC: UCF: + really high passing percent for the NCLEX (2015). Out of 220+ students, 98% passed. The link is NCLEX pass rates of 2015 because it was the only one I could find about pass rates of nursing schools in FL: Higher-Ed Hustle | Nursing Exam Database + graduate in 5 semesters with a BACHELOR's degree. + live in Orlando in an apartment if you live in the Tampa area = trying to see what it's like to live on your own. - it also means spending at least $6,000 on an apartment in Orlando. - more weight on your shoulders having to cook on your own compared to coming home with food if you live with family. HCC: + no extra living expenses if you live with your parents. + about $100 cheaper per credit hour than UCF + they also have a high NCLEX pass rate at around 80% (in 2015) + receive a Bachelor's degree at USF.... - but it'll take at least an extra 2 semesters. - have to pass the NCLEX after graduating at HCC (Summer) before enrolling at USF (which begins in the Fall) You honestly deserve the spot Alexanderr. I'm sure you've worked really hard with that GPA and test score :) I hope my list somewhat helped you out though in deciding between the two!

I got denied because I didn't meet Valencia's HUN course -_- thus I will be taking that 1 credit class in the fall and re-apply for all the schools again in spring :/ I was following through the UCF/Valencia forum & saw you got in! Congrats! :)

Congrats! Happy to know they're moving through the list! What were your stats Fate 108 if you don't mind?

nope nothing :/ I also ended up applying to UCF/Valencia's concurrent program.

Has anyone heard back?

People in the accelerated program that got waitlisted got an email about a week after the deadline to accept the waitlist/invitation. So let's hope we'll hear from them as well by next week

To those who got accepted, what day is the deadline to accept the invitation into the program?

Congrats Lanntis & best of luck to you!(:

Damn this year seems to be really competitive :/ I got waitlisted too...another waiting game.

I feel like with the pattern of students finding out early on a tuesday that we'll find out by the 28th next week.

That is very true and well your TEAS is amazing and your GPA is as well so I think you have a pretty good chance(:
