Yes, you'll need to provide proof of acceptance or enrollment at the time of application.

You may have to go to a private school, like Chamberlain or WGU.

We are all getting our money. No worries, y'all. For this year. But go to the website and get on the email list so you'll know when the application period starts in 2026, depending on the government shutdown.

I GOT THE SCHOLARSHIP! ?

I got the scholarship! I got an email welcoming me to the program!?

Not yet. But they said the end of September so trying to wait the 2 weeks.

No one has received an award. Those won't be decided til the end of September. They have requested COI - continuation of interest, along with an enrollment verification form. And my school has had the enrollment verification form, but it still hasn't been completed or returned to me, and I swear, if I miss this opportunity, I'm gonna flip! ?

Already open!

Did you ever back?

I just started looking into this program and it doesn't say anything about an interview on their website ? I'm waiting til I get my final grades from this semester for two pre-reqs before I apply. Does anyone know what stats they look for as far as GPA and TEAS score?

To add to this, you want to look at the program. I applied to a traditional BSN program, knowing the university allowed second degree bachelor's students. But apparently not in the nursing program. It happens they're starting an ABSN for Summer 2024 so I'm applying for that now. You absolutely can start with an ASN, then use the bridge programs to get to where you want to be. And as mentioned, a lot of hospitals and healthcare systems will pay for you to get the additional learning. Especially since a lot want to hire BSNs or are making their ASNs get BSN degrees now. Good luck!

Hello all! Been a long time since I posted here. Life got in the way but now, almost 20 years later, I think I'm finally going to nursing school! I'm applying for the new ABSN program at FGCU and was wondering if anybody else was too?
