What the school doesn't state is that the criteria score is used to calculate our GPA and other factors, but it still didn't make sense when calculated. I have mix feelings now. Oh well. I think I am better of going for my BSN.

I received my notice as well: "You have a 3.36 GPA, but did not meet the cut off criteria of 3.54 GPA". So I have a problem with this notice: when applying there was absolutely nothing stated about a cut off criteria with a 3.54 GPA, so I find the website information (that was during the time of application turn ins) to be very misleading information. I am 98% complete with my GE, my science GPA is strong (3.5+), and I took the TEAS V two weeks ago -achieving a 76.4% while the ADN/BSN Mean is 68%. I don't want to sound like a complainer, b/c I know things happen for reasons, but I just feel a bit mislead -and as if I wasted my time and money in transcripts to even apply. Had I known the criteria score was 3.54GPA, I would have never applied.

Notices are not going out until Friday/Saturday.

Thanks for the update. These past few weeks have me full of anxiety. I think the district stipulate was for the previous years; that may explain why the increase in applications - its no longer a requirement. Good luck!

Those applying again have an advantage -their name gets placed in pool twice. I believe there are 60 out of pool and 60 for alternates

I can't help but be anxious myself. The website now states by May 30th and to contact after June 15th, if we haven't received notification.

Not sure if it is standard, because I read, at some point, that admitted students had to wait a year to enter into clinicals. I am on the same boat as you, just a few classes, so I am excited about that--I can jump right into the hand-on stuff.

Yes, it did. When I start the program, I will need to work on History, Lit, RC 250 (?) for Fall; all others, Philos/Theo/SL will have to wait, I guess. If you have a pdf program, you can read this to help, not sure if you already have it. http://www.usfca.edu/webtrack/pdf/Nursing_curriculum.pdf Hope this helps as an idea of what the semesters will be like. I am excited....

City-- No, to be clinically ready, you need to have your prereqs, from my understanding; and it helps to have your lower division core reqs completed. There is room within the freshman year to take these, but to lessen your load it is 'suggested' to you have your lower division cores completed. You do have upper division cores, which, from what I can recall, is your (2) philosophy and theology, in addition to your service learning experience. As far as the written communication, you do need a R&C class before your junior year, so this can be completed at first semester at USF. I believe it can be completed on 6 semesters, depending how much you have completed prior to transfer. Again, this is information is based on what I recall from the informational meeting, the website, and the Bachelor curriculum plan. Did your letter state, "You will be ready Spring 2010"?

I had it confirmed through (transfer) admissions department via email.

Yes, I received the welcome packet email this morning. Hope to see you there! It is a beautiful campus! I am looking forward to it! I have all my prereq's done and about 7 cores, so I just need to work on some upper division core courses, like Philosophy and Literature, etc.

This is my first choice and the only University I applied for. :) Yes, I am enrolling in the Fall program. I live in SJ, so I am going to commute a few days and then stay with some family in the city for the other few. What are your plans?

They don't list it under status. The letters/email notifications are how you will find out. Good Luck!

Congratulations!!! I am going to start a new thread for fall 2010..
