Hi everyone! Is this thread for the 8 week unpaid nurse extern program at the Phoenix campus? Or is this regarding another internship?

Does anyone know how many apps they got this cycle? I assumed it would be less than Spring b/c the testing requirement got reinstated. But it seems like they're still behind so I'm not sure LOL

Those are not usually made until application decisions go out and then those who got accepted will do that.

That is not possible. Everyone must receive an email whether they move on or not, whether they get accepted or not. If you don’t receive one by the date, email them.

Where else have you guys applied? Is SMU your first choice?

If you do not get anything by 2/15 which is a Monday, you could log onto the BSN webinar they hold on mondays from 12-1pm and ask what is going on. I have not received anything from them either, but because I dealt with them last cycle I am used to t...

I would not be surprised if this phase gets delayed like it did last cycle. They were very behind and not so good at communication. If you don’t get an email by that date there is a good chance they didn’t meet the deadline and will email the entire ...

Hey! So schools like USF and SMU take a holistic approach to admission. This means they look beyond GPA/stats. They weigh you as a person and what you would bring to the program. I noticed my stats were higher than quite a few of the people that got ...

@aymee @TaylorJ1028 I do believe everything happens for a reason. I just got off the waitlist at my top choice (CSU East Bay) and I will be starting fall 2021. I originally applied for fall 2020 but the cohort got deferred due to covid and I ga...

I hope you and whoever else really has their heart set on going gets in!! ❤️

Look into out of state schools! I’m looking at the CSU’s and some community colleges too. If you’re gonna end up going out of state anyways the investment of USF may not be worth it long term.

I totally feel the need to start ASAP. It’s just really hard for me to justify in my head taking out all those loans for their program when there’s nothing that really sets them apart from other programs (except the religious aspect). The pandemic ha...

Congrats on making it on the waitlist! Did they give you a date where they’d get back to you? #11 is not bad! For SMU for Spring they went through a lot of people, more than I expected. A lot of people are changing their plans. I’m not sure what your...

Are you guys leaning towards accepting if an offer comes your way?

YES! haha I relate. SMU was my top and after everything that happened I would not jump at the opportunity if they were to offer me a spot for next fall. I would have to take time to actually think about it. The lack of communication/organization coup...

The SMU situation was really awful, worse than this. It kind of caused me to loose my patience with these programs in general. (sorry if my original response sounded a bit harsh or aggressive). I'm just so done with constantly being put off and deadl...

I guess we’ll see. They said they would get back to us by the 10th latest. And I’m sure people have been accepting or rejecting their offers before the deadline. It’s just kind of frustrating that they are not transparent with their communication

No and I find it kind of strange.. First they sent some vague message about being waitlisted and didn't give out a number. Now they're taking until the last possible second to communicate. It makes me question their organization/communication skills ...

@aymee Have you gotten any status updates about your application?

It is but I don’t think they’ll be sticking to their normal timeline. Decisions for Spring got delayed an extra 3-4 weeks. If they have the same amount of apps they def won’t be on time. For fall they usually let people know in March, but I wouldn’t ...

They were kind of all over the place with communication for Spring 2021. It seems like they got a lot of applicants for fall as well so I would not expect much from them when it comes to relaying info... LOL

I definitely think you have a great chance of getting in with the 88! Based off last cycle they seem to really like people with work experience and you have that too!! I’d say don’t retake it unless you have nothing better to do, as the TEAS and HESI...

Is there anyone that plans on commuting from the peninsula (San Mateo/RWC area)? Is it even possible? Or do most people get campus housing?

Yikes. Probably to discourage people from committing and then backing out. I think that’s the highest deposit for a program I’ve ever heard of LOL

Is it refundable?
