Hi all: Perhaps I can give you some useful info: I am currently in the ABSN program at UCF Orlando. We were all notified as to the status of acceptance ( in, out, or waitlist) at the same time via email which came through around 6 pm on a Friday. Pretty much everyone who was waitlisted ended up getting in as so many applicants apply to multiple schools. Letters via mail arrived the following week. The waiting is agony - hang in there....

Congratualtions - you need to join our facebook group: UCF Accelerated BSN - Class of 2012

Hey - good for you! I take it you are part of the UCF facebook group - maybe you can keep us updated there too!

Those accepted to UCF are given until March 18 to accept, and then again another required signing by April 1, so I would think there will be some waitlist activity after those 2 dates. As far as transferring credits, if the school is regionally accredited you can transfer credits. If it is nationally accredited you cannot.

Hey Gatorgrad8 - did they tell you what number you are on the waitlist? I think quite a few applicants applied to multiple schools. Fingers crossed for you!

No reason to not apply also for Spring!!

What about the programs in Daytona and Cocoa - I think those are July 1 deadline - or is that for Spring admission?

I believe fall admission deadline is July 1 - I would verify that with CON.

Paco69 - I have the same FDLE in progress/background check - I think we are all pending that. I think the CON is more organized than the registrar's office. My degree is also from out of state - although as noted above, there are several classes still missing on my degree audit. For Gatorgrad8 - I understand your frustration at being waitlisted, though I suspect a good number on the waitlist end up getting in - I have fingers crossed for you. You asked for stats - I have an undergrad psychology degree with GPA 3.98, and prerequisite GPA of 4.0. Therefore, the way I "think" this works is I scored 39.8/40 points for undergrad, 40/40 points for prerequisite. I bombed the TEAS with an 80.7 which cost me 8 points and I ended with a total of 111.8/120. This was explained to me at UCF, but I was in crisis mode that day after working for such a banging GPA and then bombing the TEAS....

UCF Hopeful - I also have a weird prerequisite comment - mine lists requirement of a C or better in general psychology - very strange - I have a degree in psychology with a GPA of 3.98. My degree audit is still not correct. I have been contacting the registrar's office, as well as CON contacting the registrar's office to no avail. Fortunately I was able to supply the CON with their own copy.

I am in! Congrats to those who got in - my heart goes out to those who were not accepted this go around - I hope you are applying for the regular BSN.

Two weeks - okay - not so bad!

Time to kick back with a beverage *wine

My contact at UCF today indicated March 1 was not likely

So Paco69, I take it then that you will take UCF over SBU? What about UF?
