CER022512

I did fill out the FAFSA recently, just wasn't sure what the next step would be since I have never dealt with fin. aid before.

gardyloo- What do you mean by "they won't tell us what we get" until the end of April? Are you referring to financial aid? I'm just asking because I have not spoken with financial aid yet, and was also curious as to when/how to get the ball rolling ...

Has anyone received anything in mail yet after being accepted?

Just curious- have any waitlist/alternates been accepted into the concurrent program thus far? I was told I was #1 on the waitlist for concurrent, but I have a feeling that's something a lot of people are being told. Also, does anyone know at what ...

It just said "due to the strength of the applicant pool we are not able to offer you admission to the UCF/SSC Concurrent campus. For questions about this please contact the UCF Nursing Student Services...etc." I checked my SCC Livemail and spam fold...

I received my rejection e-mail from UCF on Friday night. 3.4 recalculated GPA, 86% TEAS, graduated from UCF last year with my Bachelor's in another field and finished my last pre-req Summer 2011. I saw some people say they heard from Seminole that ...

Wow. REALLY wish I would've known that. UCF made it sound like no university would accept the credits...ugh.

Hi! I called UCF and talked to the nursing department, and they told me that graduates of Remington are not able to enter any of UCFs MSN programs because they are not a regionally accredited school (different accreditation than national). Also, my ...

I just looked back on some of my old posts, and it's funny how much my plan has changed from month to month. Sometimes I feel like I am going to come across every obstacle possible before I can actually breathe a sigh of relief and say YES! I'M AN R...

I just wanted to throw this out there for anyone looking for info about Remington- while they are nationally accredited, they are not regionally accredited, meaning that if you were planning to continue your education to get your MSN after graduating...

Does anyone know when they will let the July 2011 applicants know about acceptance? Do they wait until after the June 3rd deadline? Also, has anyone spoken to a RCON grad before about their job search? I am curious to find out if hospitals tend t...

1. Definitely studying as much as possible- not just right before a test, like I'm used to from my first degree. 2. Get A's in my 3 classes! 3. Keep up with my workout schedule/healthy eating, even throughout the stress of this upcoming semest...

So...I've been desperately trying to get into a Chemistry class for Spring- it's one of the last ones I need before I can start applying. I'm in Orlando, FL, and I just noticed something- Valencia doesn't require Chemistry, Seminole State doesn't req...

Amen to that. I graduated in May with a Communications degree, and I pretty much didn't even know what that MEANT until I started looking for jobs, realized I made a huge mistake, and wished my parents would have supported my decision to do nursing ...

Me too! We're both insane! lol

he really is very supportive, so at least i have that going for me! :redbeathe

a)$30,000 for tuition OR b) a bigger brain so I can be smart enough to get into the ABSN program of my dreams instead of having to take the longer, way more expensive route!

I know, it's a little frustrating. I would ask them what the deal is and see what they say- I'm sure it's not something they like to divulge to future students! Just out of curiosity, when did you submit your application for the May 2011 class?

I know there are a few discussions about Herzing on here, but I wanted to start one specifically about the Orlando campus. Has anyone gone there for their ASN? I am highly considering it, despite the hefty price tag (30K), because I will be able to...

Hi! I know, I was very upset about the May class filling up! I'm not complaining though because starting in September is still a lot earlier than I would be able to start at any of the other schools around here. As far as the accreditation, the dir...

I haven't actually done it, but I am signed up to take almost the same courses together (A+P 1 and Micro) this Spring. Like I said, I haven't actually done it, but I think if you can manage A+P 1 and Chem, it wouldn't be that much more of a struggle...

Well, I just got back from taking the TEAS V. I'm pretty disappointed with my results after seeing the above posts stating in the 80-90% range. I got a 76% overall. I only needed a 58% for my program, but I really wanted to at least be in the 80% ...

I really need help making the best decision about nursing school for my life. I know that there are so many different paths to take to become a nurse, but my problem is all about timing! I have just graduated with a B.A. in Communications from UCF,...

It sounds to me like a good suggestion may be to re-take A&P and Micro and get A's in both, and maybe even re-take any other science pre-reqs that you did not receive A's in. This will help not only your overall GPA (slightly), but it will boost...

I highly recommend having all of your pre-reqs completed before applying to UCF- I have been told this by several UCF advisors, not just the one I mentioned above, as well as advisors from other nursing schools. It is just too competitive for them t...
