Hi - I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the TGH Critical Care Rotation Program or the ICUs at TGH? I am a new BSN grad and have been accepted into the ICU orientation program. I ask because I am slightly apprehensive about diving strai...

I have a couple of questions about becoming a nurse in the Navy. I spent 5 years in the Navy as a Petty Officer Second Class. Now that I am out, I have a year left in a BSN program in Florida. I am very interested in getting back into the Navy as a...

Long story short, our LTC clinical site backed out at the last minute. We are now going to an ortho floor instead. Our clinical starts next week. Can you give me an idea of what to expect? I'm in an accelerated program and have only been in school fo...

Is anyone else applying to the Summer 2018 Second Degree BSN cohort at the University of Central Florida? It seems like it is taking forever for the actual application to open up (January 1). Hoping to see some other folks just as excited as I am!!

Did everyone else have to pay another time for fingerprints once you have an appointment?

Did you hear that from UCF or CastleBranch? I am almost positive I'm overreacting, but I don't want something little to mess anything up.

I am in the same boat. I submitted the waiver as soon as I read the email on Friday; it still is pending review. My email also said UCF must receive it by the 16th and it may take 3-5 days. I'm freaking out a little too since I already turned down my...

I know it's still early, but has anyone heard anything about financial aid? My wife and I are really hoping to get some sort of loans.

Thanks for the tip! I think I may have finally figured it out. Also, anyone else having problems getting their background and fingerprints done. I submit the verification form to CastleBranch as soon as I got the email. My account still say "Pending ...

I did accept the offer, however, I am still unable to join the group (even with my UCF email). Anyone else having that problem?

Lanntis - Thank you again for answering our questions. If accepted, what would our weekly schedule be like? I remember you saying the clinical times can vary, but what about lectures and labs?

Lanntis - Thank for answering all these questions. What are some good areas of Orlando to live in? Also, what is the traffic situation like around town?

Since we have to wait for a decision to be made, I have a question - Does anyone know what the schedule for classes/clinicals is like? I'm wondering how feasible it would be to work a part time job if I'm accepted.

Applied on Jan. 3 and still missing the prerequisite check as well. On a side note - has anyone heard anything about the program? I've been able to connect with students at other schools to get some "gouge" on what to expect. Unfortunately, I haven't...

Looks like we have the same green checks on our applications. I submitted a transfer petition months ago. They were all accepted so I'm not too worried. I have been accepted to UMiami. I only want programs that start in May.

I did. I applied yesterday and am anxiously waiting for them to finish reviewing it. Have you applied to UCF? Also, are you applying anywhere else?

Hopefully that is the case. Only a few more days until the application opens!!

Congrats on graduating! I am feeling okay about my application. I just can't wait for January 1 to come so I can finish the process. TEAS - 93.5 GPA - 3.86 Prereqs - 4.0 How are you feeling? You have great numbers!!

Hi, I actually applied, and was accepted, for the Spring 2018 cohort. Due to military obligations, I was able to defer my enrollment to the Summer 2018 cohort. I am also applying to Summer 2018 UCF Second Degree BSN. Waiting is the worst part of the ...

I wanted to follow this thread because I am also interested.

I was wondering if anyone else is applying for the University of South Florida ABSN program for Spring 2018. I just completed the SOAR component of the application process and am a little confused. Looking back at other cohorts for this program, I no...

You will definitely benefit from taking and retaining the knowledge of those classes. I would also recommend buying the ATI Study Materials. They were very helpful in my preparation for the test. It helped seeing how questions will be worded as well ...

I sure hope they do Skype or phone interviews. The email sent out today said the tentative date for the interview is September 29th. There is absolutely no way I can make it on that date. Also, I got a 92 on the TEAS test. My overall GPA is 3.86 and ...

I haven't been able to get a good timetable either. I know they said the invitations for interviews will go out around the second week of September. On a side note, does anyone know someone who went through the program? I was hoping to hear what peop...

I have a feeling we will not hear about interview invitations until after October 13. I was told nothing will happen with the SOAR applications until after the deadline. Just relaying what I was told...anyone hear something different?
