I also have been accepted to TJU's FACT '09 program. You do not need to start the MSN immediately and you do not need to choose a specialty are until you do (other schools seemed to want a commitment & decision for specialty before you even start ?!, so....) but you do take 9 masters credits during this bsn calendar year. I was under the impression that you have 1 year to start before you would need to re-apply. I'm not sure if there are spots, but I think there should be & its worth applying because besides the essay the application process is smooth & they seem great in regards to organization & speedy resopnse. The curriculum as well seems very organized compared to other programs I researched. I am honestly a bit nervous about the intensity, but its seems that they base your clinical rotations on the course content that is being covered & I think it may be beneficial to be able to learn & directly apply the information. And it IS 24 hrs clinical/week (I read 16 as well, but thats for the 2 year program) I want to a general orientation & the resources & faculty I met seemed top notch! See you in May!
