How long does one have to wait to do the PVT? An hour? Two? More? Thank you in advance for your answers.

I agree with EndocrineMD2B...why don't you just get a titer test done. I am also a "mature student" who had no idea where my immunization record was when I was accepted into nursing school. I went to my primary care and for the cost of an office vi...

Learn ABGs in no time flat. Go to youtube and look for Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) Tic-Tac-Toe Examples by survivenursing. This video taught me more about ABGs than an entire class period.

Hi Pinkmegan, Just out of curiosity what do nurses wear over there?

No prior loans.

You only need to purchase uniforms the first semester unless you get some horrible stain on them in clinical and need to replace them. Books you buy every semester with first semester being the most expensive.

All correspondence is done through email.

First semester tuition is about $2800, uniforms about $100, books about $1500, and the nurse's pack was around $150. The first semester is a killer on the bank account for sure.

Most people have laptops and bring them to class but there are some people who print out the lectures/power points and bring them to class and write notes. It is really just a matter of personal preference. There is no special program that the Colle...

It is a totally crazy and stressful experience but I wouldn't trade it for anything. Feel free to ask me anything and I'll try to answer it as honestly as I can.

You have no idea! Get as much done as fast as possible-do not procrastinate because it will quickly snowball. Same advice for the first semester. There are a ton of projects that will eat away at any free time you may have.

Correction-College of Nursing orientation was on Wednesday and Thursday before classes start (last year)-not on Thursday and Friday as I stated before.

If you don't mind telling me-where do you live?

You won't get a hold of anyone this week. UCF is on Spring Break :)

If they do things like they did last year you will be in a College of Nursing mandatory two day orientation the Thursday and Friday before classes start.

Also keep in mind that you will be split up into smaller groups of 10 (or less) for your clinicals. Your clinical instructors work closely with classroom instructors so they are pretty aware of what we are learning in class. So if you need to have ...

hockeyucf is correct. Your entire cohort will be attending Summer C. For the lab courses you will have about 10 students to an instructor and for academic classes it will be all of you per instructor which sounds crazy. In my experience though, I...

I'm talking about the program-60. If you are referring to the orientation there are hundreds of people there. I guess I'm not understanding your question.

There are 60 accepted for the accelerated program.

Deep breaths...I can totally relate. I was a basket case this time last year :) Yes, you can wait to register for orientation.

I don't think the ability to see the degree audit is indicative of anything.

Yep...and it's super boring and 98% of doesn't apply to second degree seeking students. It is really geared toward true college freshman. There is a breakout session though specifically for the college of nursing that is somewhat helpful. Go ahead...

Tomorrow should be the day! Check your email around 5 pm. I am so excited for all of you. Get ready for a wild ride. Good luck to you all.

I wouldn't worry too much Protas-listen to your fiance :)

I don't know statistics and as far as I know they don't publish or advertise them.
